Discover the timeless beauty of the historic Allen Home, a stately center hall colonial built in 1917 for Edgar "Daddy" Allen-founder of Easter Seals and Elyria's first hospital. Perfectly positioned on a picturesque ¾-acre lot, this remarkable property overlooks the Black River and Cascade Park's waterfalls and hiking trails, with the Lorain County Historical Society's "The Hickories" museum just across the street. Inside, classic character blends seamlessly with modern updates. The home features a stunning designer kitchen, three fully renovated bathrooms, refinished hardwood floors throughout, and new central air. Offering 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and 2 half baths (one on the main floor and one in the basement), the layout provides comfort and convenience for today's living. All bedrooms and full baths are located upstairs, with a full-height third floor ready to be finished into an additional bedroom, bath, office, or game room. The basement adds even more versatility, with Nature Stone flooring in the laundry area, a fruit/wine cellar, and a workshop. From its rich history to its thoughtful updates, the Allen Home is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Elyria's heritage-ready for you to move right in.
