Property Description
Rare treasure by celebrated architect Philip B. Maher of Chicago, with Interior Design by Robert Hunker. Nestled in Fairlawn Heights, this Normandy-style jewel was crafted in 1927 for the family of the adjacent estate. A rare opportunity, the residence has had only two owners and blends pedigree with timeless elegance, offering nearly 2,300 square feet of refined living. A turreted entry opens to a sunlit Living Room with soaring 10-foot ceilings and multiple French doors, creating an airy, gracious atmosphere. The adjoining formal Dining Room is equally inviting, flowing seamlessly into a glass-wrapped Sunroom—perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktails. A cozy Library with closet and powder room is located in a private corner and served as former live-in staff quarters. The vintage Kitchen, filled with natural light and custom built-ins, overlooks a surprisingly expansive backyard, ideal for entertaining or future gardens. Upstairs, three inviting bedrooms and two full baths (one en-suite) exude comfort and character, each space thoughtfully proportioned and each with windows on 3 sides. Many arched windows and doors, hardwood floors throughout and two fireplaces, including one in a bedroom, contribute to the incredible charm. Additional features include a detached 2-car garage, waterproofed basement, and main-level central air and new boiler (Communale). Roof (tile) recently evaluated and updated. This historic gem captures the romance of Akron’s golden era while offering enduring livability. Call today to arrange your private showing of this special Fairlawn Heights home. Owner has handled extensive maintenance (using professional contractors) on the property over the last several years, including close to $100k updates/maintenance on tile roof. Receipts available.
