Ellet Homes for Rent

Located in southwest Akron, Ellet offers urban convenience and cultural landmarks, including the Akron-Fulton Airport, the All-American Soapbox Derby and the original Strickland's ice cream shop. Housing options primarily consist of single-family homes, with styles ranging from Colonial Revivals and bungalows to ranch-style homes. Properties may be move-in-ready or require some repairs first. Lot sizes can range from a quarter acre in the northeast to a full acre in the southwest. By the airport, there are busy, bustling streets, while the outskirts of the neighborhood feature quieter, almost rural backroads. Grocery stores like Acme Fresh Market and Save A Lot are along Canton Road, alongside unique shops such as Three Thymes tea shop and Replay Music. Dining options include The Lamp Post Diner, known for its 1950s atmosphere, and Strickland's Frozen Custard, a long-standing favorite. Recreational spaces include Davenport Park, Hyre Park and Lion's Park, all offering playgrounds, sports fields, and walking trails. The Ellet Community Center hosts a summer concert series, while the Ellet public library has crafting nights and book clubs. Interstate 76 and Highway 224 provide routes to Youngstown and Cleveland. Public transportation is available via Akron METRO bus six. While some areas experience high noise pollution, particularly near major roads and the airport, the neighborhood remains a vibrant part of Akron with a variety of attractions and amenities.
