Bedford Heights blends busy industry with forested suburbs

Bedford Heights is a city in layers. One section holds commercial and industrial properties, while other portions are lined with suburban streets and swaths of trees. Join the bustle of retail and business, or retreat to the residential roadways where you'll be surrounded by houses and the tendrils of Bedford Reservation that creep into the city. The reservation as a whole covers over 2,200 acres, with Bedford Heights connecting to its roughly 30 miles of hiking trails.

Bowling, beer and rock ‘n’ roll restaurants in city’s business hub

While this part of Bedford Reservation is the only park space in the city, there is plenty more to enjoy. "Over 430 businesses are based in Bedford Heights," says Realtor Brian Evans with eXp Realty. WhirlyBall is an amusement center with bowling lanes and laser tag that's been entertaining residents since 1987. Enjoy their food trays, or head to one of the city's favorite restaurants, Zeppe's Tavern and Pizzeria. Here, you'll get your fill of pizzas, wings and burgers while you watch Cleveland teams face off against their rivals or browse the selection of rock 'n' roll paraphernalia on the restaurant walls. Sports fans also flock to the Winking Lizard, where beer and wings pair with the restaurant's numerous television screens. Be sure to visit the tank holding the Winking Lizard's actual pet lizard, or if the weather's nice, ask for a table on their patio. Scorches is another popular bar and grill, this one with pool tables and a pit for sand volleyball.

Renovated homes on the uptick in Bedford Heights

"The city's really been working to fix up and take care of Bedford Heights," Evans says. "People really care over there." The area's Colonial-style houses are a mixed bag of predominantly ranch homes, split-levels and Cape Cods. "Plenty of the houses have undergone renovation," Evans says, with those prices reaching into the $200,000s, while unrenovated homes can go for as low as $65,000. Private concrete driveways lead to garages, some of which are detached from the house.
