Description
On the National Register, this is the landmark Thomas H. Russell home. Located on the brick streets of Historic 4th Street in Massillon, the area was called "Millionaires Row" for all the prominent business leaders who lived there. The homes on this tree lined street were built by the top craftsmen of the day. The Thomas Russell house was designed by N.P. Charlotte and built by John Meinhart who built other stately homes on this magnificent street. Woodwork throughout the home is rare ornate Butterscotch Oak. Square carved posts anchor the elegant staircase in the front entry hall. Double working pocket doors lead to the opulent grand salon with original hardwood floors and matched herringbone details in the corners. A box bay window in the front and tall windows throughout floods the rooms with natural light. This was the first home to be built with plate glass windows. The home has been the social center of Historic 4th, hosting elaborate dinners, wedding receptions and other events. The house was fully restored with updated electrical service, 1st floor central AC, a new furnace 2025, upgraded plumbing, newer roof with premium architectural shingles and new water main. A carriage house which once housed horses and carriages now serves as a fully renovated separate guest house. This would be a grand home or to continue the tradition of a profitable Airbnb and event hosting. This property is a showstopper, a must see, so many possibilities.
