About this home

Welcome to the former Barberton Herald Building—an iconic all-brick 2-story investment opportunity in the heart of downtown Barberton, located on the corner of 4th Street and Tuscarawas Ave. Built in 1927, this 7,415 sq ft property offers a unique blend of historic character and income-producing potential. The building features five apartments and commercial/retail space that currently generates $3,850 per month; the retail space was getting $1,100 a month (now vacant). Approximately 1,200 sq ft of retail/commercial space on the main level, a private office, and a restroom. The first floor also includes one residential unit, while the second level consists of four additional apartments plus storage rooms. A full basement provides added utility with multiple rooms, a half bath, and a laundry area. Recent mechanical updates include a Roof (2022) and a newer boiler (2022). Additional highlights include a heated 2-car attached garage, a private parking lot with 11 spaces, and ample street parking. Prime downtown location in Barberton, home of the Magics, offers strong visibility and long-term upside for investors or owner-users alike.
