About this home
Discover timeless sophistication and the essence of West Akron gracious living at this extraordinary Fairlawn Heights estate, which was designed in 1930 by noted architect Maxwell Norcross and expanded by the owner of Hamlin Construction as his residence in the 1980s and 2010s. 48 South Wheaton Rd offers 10,525 square feet of refined living on 3.1 impeccably maintained acres—blending resort-style luxury with urban convenience. Gracious gathering spaces include a stately library, formal dining room, charming kitchen, and elegant living room, plus a magnificent great room with private entrance. A luminous sunroom and dramatic 60-foot colonnade overlook the serene grounds, while finished lower-level recreation rooms add versatility. The home features 8 bedrooms and 8.4 baths, including two fully appointed guest/staff apartments. Two luxurious first-floor bedroom suites offer 12-foot ceilings, fireplaces, spa-style baths, and expansive closets. Every detail—from lighting to millwork—respects the home’s architectural legacy. Outside, over three acres of landscaped gardens form a private, park-like retreat with fountain, pathways, mature trees, and dramatic lighting. Dual-level garages with numerous parking options even include space for a limousine! A rare opportunity for elevated living just minutes from Akron and within easy reach of Cleveland, Lake Erie, and Cuyahoga Valley National Park.
