585-583 E Buchtel Avenue

Fantastic investment opportunity thanks to prime proximity to Summa, Akron Children's, the University of Akron, Stark State, Downtown Akron, and major airports. Sitting on a large lot with approximately 10 off-street parking spaces and City of Akron, approved zoning, this property features two detached single-family homes: 585 E Buchtel (front) and 583 E Buchtel (rear). The front home (built 1897) was taken to the studs and rebuilt in 2005?new windows, drywall, plumbing, electrical/lighting, roof, exterior vinyl siding, and full-house insulation, blending historic charm with modern reliability. The rear home (built new in 2005) complements it perfectly. Both were designed for smart, low-maintenance living and mirror each other with 4 bedrooms/2 baths, forced-air heat & central A/C, in-unit laundry (washer/dryer), and well-equipped kitchens (range, refrigerator, dishwasher, disposal). Safety and security are dialed in with hard-wired smoke detectors on each floor and in every bedroom, plug-in CO detectors in each bedroom, a SimpliSafe intrusion system, video doorbells, and parking-lot security lighting. Commuting and campus access are a breeze the Roo Express bus stop is right across the street, and you're an easy walk to UA and everything downtown. Purpose-built for student housing and visiting professionals, this is a rare, turnkey setup in a high-demand corridor.
