Kendale Homes for Rent

Kendale, a neighborhood in Columbus, features tree-shaded culs-de-sac and midcentury homes on quarter-acre lots, often with attached two-car garages. The area offers more affordable housing compared to nearby Dublin and Upper Arlington, with single-story ranch-style houses starting in the low $300,000s and two-story split-levels beginning in the mid-$400,000s. Whetstone Park, spanning 149 acres, provides long stretches of woodland and access to the 14-mile Olentangy Trail, extending to downtown Columbus. The neighborhood is near the Anheuser-Busch Sports Park and Bill McDonald Athletic Complex, which offer various athletic courts and facilities. Kendale's proximity to Upper Arlington allows residents to enjoy events like the Labor Day Arts Festival and the Spring Fling at Sunny 95 Park. Dining options include Dosa Corner, a vegetarian South Indian restaurant, and Iacono’s, known for its handcrafted pizzas. Shopping is available at Kenny Centre and along Kenny Road, including the Tensuke Market, a Japanese grocery store. Kendale is conveniently located near Route 315 and the Interstate 270 Beltway, with regular bus service provided by the Central Ohio Transit Authority. However, the neighborhood is less walkable due to a lack of sidewalks. Local schools include Winterset Elementary, Ridgeview Middle School, and Centennial High School, which is recognized as one of Ohio's top 100 college preparatory schools.
