About this home

INVESTORS!!! Who's ready to restore a piece of Akron history? Step into a true piece of Akron history, the original Sheldon Farmhouse, built in 1884. This beautiful residence sits on a spacious 0.41-acre lot and offers nearly 2,907 square feet of timeless character and incredible potential. With 6 generously sized bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, it’s perfect for a large family, multigenerational living, or anyone ready to roll up their sleeves and bring a landmark home back to life. Inside, you’ll find rich natural oak hardwood floors and unpainted oak trim (from an early-20th-century remodel) that flow throughout, creating warmth and authentic charm. A tiled foyer welcomes you into a gracious living room (approx. 20x14) and a formal dining room. Elegant French doors open to sun-drenched solarium, plus a lovely front porch that’s ready for summer evenings. The first-floor Victorian-style full bath is a delightful period detail, and a convenient first-floor bedroom adds flexibility.
