About this home
If you're holding out for a 10/10, keep scrolling, you may never find a home like this. But if you're okay with a solid 8 in a 10/10 location, with the hard work already handled and room to add value, this is the one! Looking for a solid investment in an ideal location? Stop scrolling. This all-brick 3-bedroom, 1-bath home sits in Harrison West, outside the historic preservation district, so you'll have fewer restrictions and more freedom to make it your own. It works three ways: a strong rental in a neighborhood that never sits empty, a smart price point for a first-time buyer, or a flip for someone ready to put in some love and pull out real equity. The big-ticket items are already done. In the last five years, the home has received new windows throughout, an updated kitchen and bathroom, new appliances, a new roof, and a new 150-amp electrical panel with updated wiring. That's the expensive, unglamorous work most buyers dread, finished before you walk in. Parking is currently on-street, but the City of Columbus is reviewing a permit and variance request. With rear alley access, this approval would open the door to off-street parking or a future 2 car garage. The location does the rest. Steps to the Olentangy Trail and neighborhood staples like Zeno's, Saucy Brew Works, and Lucky's Market. Walkable to OSU Medical Center, the Short North, and the Arena District, with quick highway access for the daily commute. Coming soon!
