72 Elmwood, located in the "Hoover House", is a luxury townhouse that is in-town, so "walking distance to campus and uptown" AND located in the convenient, quiet and ever-popular neighborhood Elmwood Place. This townhouse features high-end amenities/fixtures/appliances, a chef's kitchen, hardwood and tile floors throughout...just a stunning place to call home. An absolutely unique and historically significant showstopper of a rental property! These two elegant full brick townhouses at 72 and 74 Elmwood have a rich history that is woven into the historic fabric of Elmwood Place, Ohio University and the City of Athens itself. Late Professor of History, Thomas N Hoover, bought the lots where this property sits in 1936 and hired architect William Jay Davis to design. The home is of the French Eclectic tradition with striking exterior features as well as it's interior moldings and symmetrical, light-filled design. If that wasn't enough, there is just the coolest fountain at the front of the property! Tenant responsible for all utilities.
