1980 Kershner Road Dayton, OH 45414

Welcome to the iconic little yellow cottage in the woods. Tucked away on 3 beautifully wooded acres, this charming home offers the rare combination of privacy, character, space, and exceptionally solid construction — all just minutes from the conveniences of Vandalia, Englewood, and Dayton. Built in 1957, this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath brick ranch offers approximately 1,986 square feet of living space and the kind of enduring construction that simply isn’t easy to replicate today. From the moment you arrive, the setting makes an impression. A large wrap-around driveway leads you to a home surrounded by nature. Inside, expansive windows at both the front and back of the home fill the living spaces with natural light while offering peaceful views of the wooded property. And this home is solid — truly solid. Constructed with brick, mortar, plaster, and rebar, the home features two concrete slabs, creating an exceptionally sturdy feel throughout. Beneath it all, a full basement provides valuable additional space for living, storage, hobbies, a workshop, or future possibilities. Step outside from the patio room and the living space expands even further onto an impressive 900+ square-foot composite deck — the perfect place for morning coffee, summer gatherings with family and friends, or simply enjoying the quiet that comes with owning your own private slice of the woods. A detached shed provides even more storage, while the two-car garage offers plenty of room for vehicles, tools, and toys. There’s something special about a home that feels tucked away from the world without actually being far from it. Whether you’re looking for privacy, room to garden and explore, space to entertain, or a place where the trees and wildlife are part of the view every day, this property delivers. A little yellow cottage. Three wooded acres. Nearly 2,000 square feet. And a whole lot of potential. Come see why this one feels less like a house you found… and more like an oasis you discovered.
