Eastside Lima Homes for Sale

Eastside Lima is a neighborhood rich in history, with many homes dating back to the early 20th century and the mid-1900s. The area is characterized by its vintage residences, including ranch-style homes and Foursquare houses, which often require renovation due to their age. North of Schoonover Park, streets are lined with greenery and spacious lawns, though sidewalks are sparse. Closer to downtown, homes are more densely packed and typically have sidewalks. Schoonover Park, a 69-acre green space, serves as a hub for outdoor activities with its basketball court, playground, and waterside pathways that connect to the Lima Astronomical Society’s observatory and trails leading to Ottawa Metro Park. The neighborhood features a small retail scene between Central Avenue and West Street, including long-standing establishments like Kewpee Hamburgers and upscale dining options such as Old City Prime and Social House. Essential services are conveniently located, with Kindred Hospital less than 2 miles away and the Lima Mall within 4 miles. While most residents rely on driving, the Allen County Regional Transit Authority provides bus routes throughout the city.
