35.53 acres in Summit County, Ohio

This exceptional land property presents an outstanding opportunity for development, offering vast potential for a wide range of projects. Spanning a generous 35.53 acres of uncleared land, the property is divided into two distinct parcels, providing added flexibility for various uses. The larger parcel, located on Norton, covers 32.2984 acres and is zoned I-1 for light industrial, making it ideal for industrial or manufacturing developments. The smaller parcel, situated on Barberton, consists of 3.2273 acres and is zoned C-3 for commercial use, providing excellent potential for retail, office, or mixed-use development. Together, these parcels offer a rare combination of zoning and scale, making this property a prime candidate for a variety of development opportunities. A portion of the acreage sits in an area designated by FEMA as a 100-year floodplain. Additionally, in 2013, a survey revealed a low-quality wetland area totaling 1.18 acres on the northernmost end of the property. The entire property has gone through the Ohio EPA Voluntary Action Program and has been awarded the Ohio EPA Gold Level with a CNS and NFA (all recorded at the Summit County Recorder's Office). Located within the Greater Akron market, this land enjoys a highly advantageous position, benefiting from its prime proximity to key regional amenities.
