A bedroom community for Cleveland commuters
Monticello-Noble's abundance of trees and storybook homes give it a small-town vibe and timeless charm not found in many urban residential neighborhoods. Part of the city of Cleveland Heights and roughly 8 miles from downtown Cleveland, Monticello-Noble offers residents a variety of older homes within reach of local schools and sports-centric parks. Faith plays an important role in the lives of many Monticello-Noble residents, as evidenced by nearby churches and synagogues. Congregants and residents gather throughout the year for events like community dinners, bake sales and fish fries, while an annual summer arts festival draws locals to Cain Park. The neighborhood is a haven for commuters thanks to its proximity to downtown, public transportation and major roadways like Noble Road, Euclid Avenue and Mayfield Road.
Franklin Park is a former Rockefeller estate
Forest Hill Park, a historic urban park located on the former summer home estate of John D. Rockefeller, spans nearly 250 acres. The home was destroyed in a fire in 1917, and Rockefeller donated a third of the property to Cleveland Heights and two-thirds to East Cleveland. Now, the sprawling park features a playground, six tennis courts, four baseball fields and an all-purpose nature trail with views of waterfalls and the park’s fishing pond. Denison Park was built for sports lovers — the park has tennis, pickleball and basketball courts, plus a multi-use sports field, a playground and an asphalt pathway. Cain Park, the site of many Cleveland Heights festivals and events, has two partially enclosed venues. The Alma Theater and the Evans Amphitheater, the latter of which seats more than 2,500 guests, host everything from musical theater performances to local spelling bee competitions. Lake Erie is a few miles away and is the go-to spot for fishing, boating, paddleboarding, kayaking and canoeing. The 25-mile Lake Erie Water Trail draws plenty of paddlers, but boaters should watch for freighters hauling cargo to and from the Port of Cleveland. Sports fans can watch the Browns, Cavaliers and Guardians play in downtown Cleveland about 10 miles away.
Nela Park holiday light show is a 100-year-old tradition
The city of Cleveland Heights hosts events throughout the year, including a Juneteenth event and the annual spring egg hunt at Forest Hill Park. However, Cain Park is where most of the action happens. The Cain Park Arts Festival has entertained families from across the nation for nearly 50 years. This annual July event showcases local and national artists and features live entertainment, kids activities and food trucks. Nela Park — the headquarters of GE Lighting, a Savant company — has hosted a light show during the holiday season for 100 years. Although an out-of-state developer purchased the “world’s first industrial park” in 2022 and has plans to turn most of the campus into a mixed-use development, GE Lighting remains a tenant and the centennial light show continues.
Monticello-Noble has mix of single, multi-family homes
The neighborhood features sidewalk-lined streets, mature trees and a variety of homes mostly built between the 1930s and ’40s. The neighborhood’s “widespread custom historic feel” comes down to the special touches, says Realtor Leilani Bowersock. "Each home is different, displaying unparalleled woodwork and architecture,” Bowersock says. Styles include Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival, Cape Cod, Craftsman bungalows and ranch-style houses, and homes typically have private driveways with detached garages. Multi-family properties are also present, and a little over a third of residents rent. Fixer-upper single-family homes can start at $75,000, while move-in ready homes typically cost between $130,000 and $300,000. Condos can range from $60,000 to $160,000. Townhouses, duplexes and multi-family homes can cost between $175,000 and $385,000. Renovated properties and units built after 2000 tend to cost more.
Rapid Red Line and RTA bus system
Although primarily car-dependent, residents can access Cleveland Regional Transit Authority, or RTA, bus stops on Monticello Boulevard and Noble Road. Those looking to get to East Cleveland often take Noble Road, and the route can get congested. Medical care is available about 2 miles away at MetroHealth Cleveland Heights Medical Center. The Stokes-Windermere subway station, also about 2 miles away, is the last stop on the Rapid Red Line. This route connects commuters with Little Italy, downtown Cleveland and Cleveland Hopkins International Airport, about 21 miles away. Mayfield Road, also known as U.S. Route 322, connects to Interstate 271. Drivers can take I-271 to Akron about 30 miles south. Other major highways include I-76, which leads to Pittsburgh, and I-90, which leads east to Toledo and west to Buffalo, New York.
Cleveland Heights High School has CTE programs
Kids in prekindergarten through fifth grade can attend Oxford Elementary School, which earns a C from Niche, or Noble Elementary School, which receives a C-plus. Monticello Middle School, established in 1926, earns a C. Cleveland Heights High School, with a B-minus rating, offers 22 career and technical education programs through Heights Career Tech, which serves five districts. Programs located at Cleveland Heights High School include sports medicine and exercise science, digital video production and automotive technology. Private school options include Lutheran High School East, which earns a C-plus, and the Hebrew Academy of Cleveland.
Monica’s Carryout serves up soul food
The corner of Monticello Boulevard and Noble Road is one of Cleveland Heights’ commercial districts. While it’s not quite a walkable retail haven, it is home to the Rainbow Veterinary Clinic, CVS Pharmacy and Longwood Beauty Supply. Monica’s Carryout serves up generous portions of classic Southern soul food such as shrimp boil bags, catfish and whiting. Jamaican restaurants along Noble Road include Island Style, Momma Q’s Kitchen and Pin Pin’s Kitchen. Noble Road also has a Save A Lot for groceries. Residents frequent Severance Town Center, home to OfficeMax, Dave’s Market and The Home Depot. The nearby Coit Road Farmers’ Market has been a staple in east Cleveland since 1932 and offers produce and artisanal goods from more than 20 vendors. The market is open year-round on Saturdays and seasonally on Tuesdays.
Churches and synagogues in Cleveland Heights
Numerous Baptist, Presbyterian, Lutheran, Catholic and non-denominational churches are nearby. Cleveland Heights is also home to several synagogues, including Taylor Road Synagogue and Congregation Shomre Shabbos. Saints Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Cathedral host a Greek festival each July with live music, food, church tours and performances by the church’s Hellenic dancers.
