2242 Rock Creek, Akron, OH

New roof 2026. Tucked within Firestone Trace, this light-filled Jack Arnold-designed French Country residence offers rare architectural pedigree in a refreshingly livable scale. Beautifully executed, it blends timeless design with modern comfort in one of Bath’s most desirable neighborhoods. With a first-floor primary suite, 4 BDs, and 3.5 BA, the layout supports elegant entertaining & effortless daily living. Gracious double doors open to a welcoming foyer flanked by a refined living room and handsome den. 10ft ceilings & hardwood floors span the main level, enhancing the sense of openness and light. At the heart of the home, a chef’s kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining room, anchored by a gas fireplace. Custom cabinetry, granite counters, stainless steel appliances, & an expansive, multi-purpose island provide both beauty and function. A generous walk-in pantry & beverage bar with refrigerator drawers connect the kitchen to the den. The first-floor primary suite offers privacy & comfort w/dual vanities, travertine floors, walk-in shower, soaking tub, and custom walk-in closet w/built-ins. French doors from both the dining room and primary suite open to a paver patio and landscaped grounds. Up one set of stairs, two charming dormered BDs share a Jack-and-Jill bath with private vanity areas, while separate stairs off the kitchen lead to a fourth BD with en-suite bath, perfect for guests or flexible living. A full basement awaits finishing, and the 3-car garage plus outdoor shed provide generous storage. Recent improvements include new hot water tanks & updated kitchen appliances. Set on a quiet cul-de-sac adjacent to a walking trail, the lot lives beautifully—surprisingly private, framed by mature trees and open space beyond. In a market where buildable lots are scarce and homes of this scale are rare, this residence stands apart.
