About This Home

As of September 2023

Don't miss this chance to own an important part of Oberlin history. This grand home was built in 1901 by inventor and entrepreneur Charles Martin Hall for his family. It features a wrap around porch that looks out over beautifully landscaped lot. Once inside the house, the original grandeur is still there with gleaming wood floors, many original fixtures, leaded glass china closet and five fireplaces with carved mantles. The kitchen is bright and sunny, and looks out over the perennial beds in the back yard. Adjacent to the kitchen is the butler's pantry with the original virgin pine. Two large living rooms, a spacious dining room, laundry room and half bath complete the first floor. Two separate staircases lead to the second floor that has four large bedrooms, two with fireplaces, and a full bath. The third floor features a light and airy studio space with exposed brick and skylights. Elm Street is located within walking distance to the College, downtown and the arboretum.
