Northfield is centrally located, Cleveland and Akron are 20 miles away
Northfield is a small village located between Cleveland and Akron. “Everything is centrally located, so you can get to Akron or Cleveland in 30 minutes,” says Realtor Taylor Whitlock with Howard Hanne. “Plus, it’s Summit County, so there are cheaper taxes.” The village was once part of Olde Northfield Township, which was split into Macedonia, Northfield, Northfield Center and Sagamore Hills. The communities are still interconnected, with residents traveling between them for shopping, dining and recreation. Many locals still think of them as a unit. “When you’re talking about Northfield, you’re talking about three cities because they are all grouped together,” Whitlock says.
Northfield has a rich corridor of shopping and dining options.

Variety of homes, condos, and townhouses with a low price point
Manicured lawns stretch to the road, although sidewalks line some residential streets in Northfield. Oak and pine trees dot the lots, most of which are less than a quarter of an acre. Most properties were built between 1950 and the 2020s. “There’s anything from condos and older homes to new construction,” says Realtor Theresa Walters with eXp Realty. Ranch-style houses, split-levels and Colonial Revivals are common, as are New Traditionals. Prices for a single-family home range from $120,000 to $400,000, depending on size and location. “You can get a pretty good home for, I’d say, under $250,000, but then we have properties that are higher value,” Whitlock says. Condos and townhouses are also available, typically costing between $170,000 and $270,000.
Homes in Northfield often feature wraparound porches and meticulously maintained lawns.
Northfield offers a wide variety of housing styles and sizes, many featuring beautifully landscaped yards and tree-lined streets.

MGM Northfield Park, local shops and restaurants in the area
Although MGM Northfield Park has a full-service casino and over 200 horse races a year, it offers more than just gambling. “Locals go there for entertainment,” Walters says. “There’s more than just gambling; there are restaurants and concerts.” Center Stage is a music hall that seats over 1,800 people and has hosted household names like ZZ Top and Howie Mandel. There are four restaurants and bars, including the high-end Valley’s Edge, which is a steakhouse. The Buffet is an all-you-can-eat establishment that pays homage to the Las Vegas-style buffets.
There are plenty of dining options outside of the casino. Northfield Inn is a longstanding local favorite, serving both Italian and American classics since 1960. Rosati’s Frozen Custard features a new daily flavor alongside the standard chocolate and vanilla custards. “Me, personally, I go to Dos Coronas, which is a Mexican restaurant,” Whitlock says. There are several other chains and franchises in the area. Locals shop at Peppers Fresh Market, a family-owned, full-service grocery store, or travel to the Giant Eagle in Macedonia. There is a Dollar General in the area. Target, Walmart and Home Depot are all about 3 miles away.
People from far and wide gather at the racetrack to place their bets on the thrilling races.
