About This Home

229 5th St, Elyria, OH 44035 — Mixed-Use Opportunity Awaits. Discover the untapped potential of this versatile mixed-use property located in the heart of Downtown Elyria. Zoned for mixed use, this unique offering features a former chiropractic office on the first floor and a comfortable two-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment on the second floor — ideal for the savvy investor or owner-occupant who dreams of living upstairs while running a business below.**Renovation Potential That Inspires.** The expansive first-floor office space is primed for conversion into one or multiple residential apartments, and the large attic space offers even more opportunity — the current owner has architectural drawings already prepared for completing an additional apartment upstairs. Whether you envision a thriving multi-unit rental property or a creative live-work arrangement, the possibilities here are truly exciting.**Parking That Delivers.** A generous gravel parking lot accessible from Barres Street, combined with a private driveway off 5th Street, provides multiple ingress and egress points — a rare advantage for both residential tenants and commercial visitors alike. Efficiency is built in, with separate HVAC and hot water systems
