Property Description
Welcome to 605 St. Leger Avenue, a rare opportunity to own a beautifully preserved piece of Goodyear Heights history. Nestled in Akron's iconic historic Goodyear Heights neighborhood, this timeless home has been owned by only two families in the last 107 years, with the most recent family caring for it for 50 years. Homes with this kind of legacy, character, and long term stewardship rarely come to market.
Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated, this 3 bedroom home offers the perfect blend of historic charm and modern comfort. Inside, you'll find a spacious living room centered around a wood burning fireplace, a large formal dining room with built in cabinetry, and a fully renovated kitchen completed in 2023 featuring new cabinets, countertops, appliances, flooring, and updated drywall. Additional improvements completed in 2023 include fresh paint, new carpet, and dining room wallpaper, creating a fresh, move in ready feel while preserving the home's classic character. A new furnace was installed in 2019, adding even more peace of mind.
Outside, the home continues to impress with a beautiful private backyard, a covered porch ideal for relaxing or entertaining, and additional storage space beneath the garage.
The location is just as special as the home itself. Situated in the heart of Goodyear Heights, the property is conveniently located near Goodyear Heights Metro Park, one of the area's most beloved green spaces, offering trails, scenic views, and year round outdoor recreation. It is also convenient to nearby schools including Seiberling CLC and East Community Learning Center, along with shopping, dining, and easy access to Route 8 and other major commuter routes.
Rich in history, full of warmth, and lovingly maintained for generations, 605 St. Leger Avenue is more than just a home. It is a chance to own a truly special property in one of Akron's most recognizable historic neighborhoods.
