A modern town with a historic background

Founded as an agricultural township in 1841, the community of Englewood was known primarily as the origin of countless flatboats that cruised into Dayton on the Stillwater River, carrying grain and cured meats. Since then, Englewood has grown a great deal, though it still serves as a hub of shopping and commerce for surrounding rural areas. Quiet and unassuming, the suburban community of Englewood features an effortless blending of small-town living and easy access to amenities and creature comforts generally associated with bigger cities. “It’s got a nice hometown feel to it with a big-city attitude,” says Sean Lightfoot, a Realtor with Howard Hanna who’s serviced the area since 2002. “You never feel like you’re out of the loop.” This level of convenience combined with lower-than-average crime rates has earned Englewood a positive reputation with families and professionals looking for a quiet refuge away from Dayton during their off hours.

Newer construction and contemporary style

As Englewood and much of the surrounding area continue to grow, newer developments in real estate are pretty common. However, several older neighborhoods and subdivisions can boast homes dating back to the early 20th century. Sidewalks stretch through residential zones and into commercial areas, making a significant portion of the town reasonably walkable. Wide front and backyards, as well as driveways, are universal, cutting down on street parking. Ranch, split-level, minimal traditional, Cape Cod and Craftsman homes are some of the most popular styles, with some of the oldest properties starting in the mid-$70,000s and reaching into the mid-$200,000s for mid-20th-century dwellings. Newer construction from the last 10 to 15 years peaks in the mid-$400,000s, though sprawling estates with significant acreage can occasionally be found in the high $900,000s.

Robust athletics at Northmont High

Ohio’s Open Enrollment policy allows kids to attend any school that best suits their needs, regardless of district. A student can begin at Englewood Hills Elementary School, which has a B-minus on Niche, before heading to Northmont Middle School, which has a B-minus. Finally, older students can enroll at Northmont High School, which has a B-plus and a dedication to academic achievement. Though Northmont High has tripled its number of graduates attending the top 50 schools in the past few years, it also has a reputation for working with students who struggle in class. “We meet the kids where they are,” says T.D. Evans, Northmont High School’s principal. This philosophy is also extended to their athletics department, which covers everything from football to ladies’ wrestling. “If a student’s looking for it, we’ve got it,” he says.

Central to everything

A lot of the area’s popularity rests on its location. “Englewood is central to just about everything,” says Lightfoot. “Very close to the airport, and with I-70 and I-75 you can get anywhere in no time.” Downtown Dayton runs 10 miles southeast of Englewood, while the Dayton International Airport is 5 miles east.

Admire three waterfalls in Englewood MetroPark

At Centennial Park, fish at the catch-and-release pond, spike a volleyball in the sand, let the kids play in the splash pad or hit the bike trails. Or play soccer, rollerblade or hop on the 3-mile scenic Englewood Reserve Bikeway at Grossnickle Memorial Park, dedicated to Jake Grossnickle, a former resident and third-generation police officer killed in the line of duty. The jewel of the park system is Englewood MetroPark, a 2000-acre green space with three waterfalls, a yellow trail surrounded by a swamp forest with pumpkin ash and the northern segment of the Stillwater River Trail, perfect for hiking, biking or fishing. At 100 years old, Meadowbrook at Clayton’s 18-hole golf course is a classic spot for locals to tee up. For those just starting, Meadowbrook offers entry-level lessons and indoor golf simulators.
