Bloom Homes for Rent

Bloom, a township 25 miles from Columbus, offers a blend of convenience and country living. Residents enjoy spacious living with a minimum 2-acre lot requirement outside subdivisions, fostering newer home developments. Common home styles include two-story, four-bedroom Craftsman homes with stone and siding, while older homes feature a midcentury modern split-level design. The area is known for its quiet, private environment with long driveways and homes set back from the road. Bloom-Carroll schools serve the community, with primary, intermediate, middle, and high schools all earning solid ratings. The College Credit Plus program is available from seventh grade, allowing dual enrollment at Hocking College or Ohio University. Local attractions include Chestnut Ridge Metro Park, offering 10 miles of mountain bike trails and a fishing pond, and Slate Run Metro Park, which features extensive trails, horseback riding, and the Living Historical Farm. Rock Mill Park and Lake Wilderness Area provide historical milling demonstrations and fishing opportunities. For groceries, residents typically travel to nearby Canal Winchester, 8 miles away, where options like Walmart Supercenter, Aldi, and Kroger are available. Dining options include Shirky’s Pizza Zone in Carroll, and local breweries and wineries such as Rockmill Brewery and Mirabelle Farm and Vineyards offer Belgian-style beers and German-style wines. The Lithopolis Honeyfest in September celebrates honey and bees, featuring local beekeepers, food trucks, and artisans. While Bloom is largely car-dependent, U.S. Route 33 and local roads connect it to Columbus and neighboring areas. Rickenbacker International Airport is 15 miles away, and Fairfield County Airport is 7 miles away for regional flights.
