Which Westerville Neighborhood Should You Buy In? 699 Sales in 2026

Westerville closed 699 single family sales in 2026 through September 21, at a median $479,999 and $212 a finished square foot. That median is close to useless on its own. Willow Bend closed seven at $910,000. Huber Ridge closed twelve at $289,316. The spread is about $620,000, and one in four of those 699 houses was outside Westerville City Schools, which the mailing address will never tell you.

I pulled every 2026 Westerville closing off the MLS and sorted it by the subdivision name the listing agent entered. Forty-two subdivisions had at least four sales, which is enough to say something. The rest of this post is that table and what I would do with it.

What did each Westerville subdivision sell for in 2026?

Sales are January 1 through September 21, 2026, closed, single family, Westerville mailing address. Median price is the middle sale. Price per foot is the median of each sale's own ratio of price to finished square footage, not the median price divided by the median size. Over ask is the share that closed above the original list price, not a later reduced price. Days to contract runs from the MLS entry date to the contract date. School district is the district recorded on the listings in that row.

Source: Columbus REALTORS MLS closed single family sales, Westerville mailing address, January 1 through September 21, 2026, computed by Adam Geuy from the MLS export. 699 closings; 534 carried a subdivision name; 304 sit in the 42 subdivisions above. The rest are in subdivisions with fewer than four sales this year, or carried no name at all. Annehurst and Annehurst Village are listed as agents entered them; some of those houses are the same plat under two spellings.

Which Westerville neighborhoods carry the volume?

Upper Albany West, with 28 closings at a median $442,500. It is the biggest row in the table and it is not in Westerville City Schools. Those houses were built around 2009, close at $202 a foot, and went under contract in a median 22 days with 32 percent over the original ask. That is a calmer market than the city as a whole, which ran 13 days and 42 percent.

Highland Lakes is second at 22 sales and the clear leader above $600,000. The median was $670,000 on 3,492 square feet, but the range ran from $510,000 to $1,600,000, so the row covers two different houses. Thirty-two days to contract is slow for Westerville. In my experience, the upper half of that subdivision moves like a luxury listing: fewer buyers, more showings, longer decisions.

Then the 1970s core. Annehurst Village closed 16 at $426,500, Spring Grove closed 15 at $485,000, and both moved fast. Annehurst Village went under contract in a median 6 days with 50 percent over ask. Spring Grove was 6 days and 53 percent. Those two subdivisions are where a $450,000 Westerville buyer is most likely to find a house and most likely to be in a multiple offer situation for it. Sherbrook, 13 sales at $515,000 and 62 percent over ask, is the 2000-vintage version of the same story.

Is a Westerville address always Westerville City Schools?

No, and the table makes the point better than I can. Of the 699 closings, 516 were in Westerville City Schools. The other 183, one in four, were somewhere else: 79 in Columbus City Schools, 35 in Olentangy, and 23 each in New Albany-Plain, Big Walnut and Worthington.

In the table, Upper Albany West, Preston Hollow, West Albany and Village at Albany Crossing are Columbus City Schools. Willow Bend and Oaks at Highland Lakes are Olentangy. Preston Commons is New Albany-Plain. Worthington Highlands is Worthington. The listing data records the district, and I would still verify the parcel with the county before relying on it, because a subdivision can straddle a line. I wrote a separate post on the Westerville address and the school boundary if you want the map.

School district on the listing	2026 closings	Share
Westerville City	516	74%
Columbus City	79	11%
Olentangy Local	35	5%
New Albany-Plain Local	23	3%
Big Walnut Local	23	3%
Worthington City	23	3%

The county split is the other thing people miss. 486 of the 699 closings were in Franklin County and 213 were in Delaware County. The Delaware County side is where the newer, larger subdivisions sit, and it carries a different property tax bill and a different school district income tax depending on which district you land in.

Where does a $300,000 to $400,000 budget land in Westerville?

Nine subdivisions in the table have medians between $300,000 and $400,000, and Huber Ridge sits just under at $289,316. Eight of those ten were built between 1962 and 1974: Huber Ridge, Glengary Heights at $305,500, Hamstead at $328,000, Huber at $329,000, Huber Village at $335,000, Lexington Farms and Sunbury Woods at $372,500, Lehy Acres at $377,450. The two exceptions are Westerville Crossing at $372,900, 2001 construction on smaller lots, and Village at Albany Crossing at $385,000, 2012 construction in Columbus City Schools.

Those are the houses with the deepest buyer pool in the city, and the over-ask column shows it. Lexington Farms closed all four of its sales over the original ask. Hamstead was 71 percent, Huber Village 67 percent, Huber 60 percent, Sunbury Woods 56 percent. At that price in Westerville, a well-kept 1960s ranch does not sit. Huber Ridge at 33 percent and Glengary Heights at 25 percent are the two where I have seen a little more room to work, and Glengary had the widest spread in the tier, $184,000 to $315,000, which means condition is doing the work.

Only 36 of the 699 closings in the city were under $300,000. If that is the budget, the list of streets is short and you need to be ready to move the day it lists.

The inspection conversation in this tier is the same on most streets: original windows, the age of the furnace and the panel, and whether the basement has ever taken water. None of those are reasons not to buy. All of them are reasons to price the fix before you write the number.

Where does Westerville sell above $600,000?

Nine subdivisions in the table, and they are not all the same product. Willow Bend, Medallion Estates and The Overlook are big houses on big lots, 3,952 to 5,312 square feet at the median, and they close at $188 to $200 a foot. Bigham Ridge is the newest row in that group, 2018 construction, $227 a foot, and it went under contract in a median 3 days, which is the fastest number in the top of the table.

Highland Lakes and Harvest Wind are the volume in that tier, 31 sales between them. Harvest Wind closed nine at $708,500 in a median 8 days. Landings at Hoover, four sales at $618,750, closed 75 percent over the original ask, the most competitive row above $600,000.

Across the city, 158 of the 699 closings were $600,000 or more, and 62 of those were $800,000 or more. That is a market, not a handful of outliers, and most of it is on the Delaware County side.

Closed price	2026 closings	Share
Under $300,000	36	5%
$300,000 to $399,999	151	22%
$400,000 to $499,999	205	29%
$500,000 to $599,999	149	21%
$600,000 to $799,999	96	14%
$800,000 and up	62	9%

The $400,000 to $500,000 band is the fattest one in the city, 205 sales. That is Upper Albany West, Spring Grove, Preston Hollow, Worthington Highlands, Covington Meadows, Genoa Farms, Woodlake Colony and both Annehurst rows, and it is where the 1970s and the 2000s vintages compete for the same buyer.

Why does price per foot disagree with price?

Because the small houses carry the highest per-foot numbers. Huber Village closed at $258 a foot on 1,376 square feet. Lexington Farms was $248 on 1,602. Westerville Crossing was $245 on 1,552. The big-lot subdivisions at the top of the table, Willow Bend, The Overlook, Harvest Wind, Woodglen, are $188 to $190 a foot on houses over 3,000 square feet.

That is normal. A kitchen and two baths cost about the same whether the house is 1,400 or 3,400 square feet, so the small house carries more fixed cost per foot. It matters when you compare across tiers. Spring Grove's median sale was 2,512 square feet at $192 a foot. Village at Albany Crossing's was 1,734 square feet at $213. Both are fine houses. They are not the same purchase. The Dublin subdivision table shows the same pattern on the other side of the county if you want the comparison.

Which rows are slower than they look?

Three subdivisions in the table closed zero sales over the original ask: Parkside, Olde Mill and Spring Hollow. Parkside also carried the longest days to contract in the table, 74, on 2022-built houses. Five sales at list price with a long runway reads like builder or near-new inventory that was priced to its number from the start, not like a street buyers are passing over. Autumn Woods at 50 days and Willow Bend at 40 are the slow rows on the resale side, and both are big houses where the buyer pool is thinner.

Compare that to Bigham Ridge at 3 days, Village at Albany Crossing at 3, Orchard Lakes and Twelve Trees and Huber at 4. The Westerville days-on-market post has the citywide picture, but the subdivision number is the one that tells you how to write the offer.

How should you use this table?

Three ways, in order.

1. Check the school district column before you fall for the street. One in four Westerville-address closings this year was outside Westerville City Schools. That is not good or bad. It is a fact that changes the tax bill and the bus route, and you want to know it before the showing, not at the title company.
2. Read the over-ask column before you write the offer. In a subdivision above 60 percent, the list price is the floor and your first number needs to be your best number. Below 30 percent, there is a conversation to have.
3. Pick the tier by price per foot, not by median price. The same dollar buys very different square footage in Spring Grove and in Westerville Crossing.

And one caveat on the whole table. A subdivision median with four to eight sales moves when one unusual house closes. Highland Lakes' $1,600,000 high sale and Freedom Colony's $705,000 are in the medians but not typical of either street. Use the low-to-high column as the check. For the neighborhood-by-neighborhood description of the city, the Westerville neighborhoods guide covers the corridors and the Westerville suburb page has the current listings.

What is your subdivision doing right now?

This table is the city through September 21. Your street is a smaller and more current sample.

Send me the subdivision, or the address, and I will pull every 2026 closing in it, what beat the original ask and by how much, and what the active listings are asking against those closings, before you write anything. If you own in one of these neighborhoods and are weighing a sale, the same pull tells you what the last five buyers on your street paid and how fast, and a current value read on your own home is the place to start.

All figures are Columbus REALTORS MLS closed single family sales with a Westerville mailing address, January 1 through September 21, 2026, grouped by the subdivision name on the listing. Subdivision names are entered by listing agents and can be inconsistent; a house can carry no name or a variant spelling and fall outside its row. School district is as recorded on the listing; verify the parcel with the county auditor. Medians on small samples move with single sales. Informational only.
