Akron Homes for Sale

The small borough of Akron, Pennsylvania, located in northern Lancaster County, is a quiet family retreat. Incorporated in 1895, the borough used to be known for its production of handmade cigars. Akron then became the home of the Miller Hess Shoe Company until the business closed in 1985. The area is now mostly residential, with a population of about 4,000 people.

Akron homes are a mix of historic stone farmhouses, colonial and Victorian styles, and comfortable, contemporary new builds. Home prices range from the mid-$100,000’s to the $600,000’s, which offers families many different options to fit their needs. Several of Akron’s older properties have been converted into quaint bed and breakfasts, some of which are waiting for a buyer to breathe new life into them.

Akron’s main attraction is Loyd H. Roland Memorial Park. Considered one of the most beautiful parks in Lancaster County, Roland Park features more than 70 acres of green open spaces and wooded areas. It contains a number of picnic areas, fishing ponds, hike and bike trails, and outdoor sports pavilions like tennis, volleyball, and disc golf. In homage to the town’s shoemaking past, residents celebrate the annual “Shoe-In” every New Year’s Eve with a bonfire, live music, children’s activities, and a shoe donation to families in need. The Mennonite Central Committee and Mennonite Disaster Service relief organizations also are headquartered in Akron.
