Fresh paint throughout and a new gutter system installed in 2026 add to the home’s recent improvements, while the property retains the architectural details that give it its distinctive personality.
Located near Brookside Reservation and Cleveland Metroparks Zoo with convenient access to I-71, Ohio City, and downtown Cleveland, the home combines historic atmosphere with an accessible urban setting. For a buyer who appreciates the craftsmanship of an old Cleveland home, 3808 W 36th Street offers an opportunity to own an authentic 1880 residence with original details, generous garage space, and plenty of room to make the property distinctly your own.
