311 Merriman Rd Akron, OH 44303

Welcome home to one of Akron's most unique properties. Bask in the natural light that pours through the tall windows of this landmark house, illuminating the original hardwood floors and spacious, high-ceiling rooms. Built in 1894 by Casper Zintel, a pioneering German entrepreneur, 311 Merriman’s historic features, like its exquisite glass-front kitchen cabinets and hand-hewn, custom woodwork, have been carefully preserved and thoughtfully complemented with modern amenities, like new ceiling fans, LED lighting and high-flow water filtration. Breathe easy knowing major investments include a new roof (8/2021), furnace (1/2023), attic HVAC system (6/2021), hot water tank (4/2015) and gas range (1/2015), plus a one-year home warranty for most everything else. Get excited for Spring on the wrap-around porch. Imagine unwinding in the tiled-in, window-lit jacuzzi or finding sanctuary in the finished attic. Daydream about what the three-car detached garage could be: workshop, gym, writers shed, gameday hangout. Stand on the back patio overlooking the large yard and English garden, both brimming with promise — just like the rest of this move-in ready local treasure.
