A neighborhood of neighborhoods
At 7 square miles, Clintonville stands out as one of the largest neighborhoods in Columbus, with an assortment of housing styles to match. “It’s a neighborhood of neighborhoods,” says Joe Jackson, Keller Williams Capital Partners Realtor and 12-year Clintonville resident. “It used to be nothing but farms, and then in the early 1900s, it started getting slowly built up. Now it’s a bedroom community with everything from beautiful historic homes to suburban ranches and split-levels.”
Architectural variety, proximity to downtown and an extensive park system have attracted people to the neighborhood over the years, and now a new generation of residents are staking their claim. “One of the big things that we’ve been seeing is that more and more young families and young professionals go away for school or work, and then they come back to make a home in Clintonville,” says Sue Lusk-Gleich, a Realtor with Keller Williams Capital Partners.
Clintonville is a tight-knit community with many homes in close proximity of one another.
Whetstone Park is a 149-acre regional park in the Clintonville community.

Historic homes on North Broadway Street
Though apartments and other examples of multi-family homes are common in the area, over two-thirds of residents own their homes, with many living there for multiple generations. The southern section of the neighborhood is where some of the original construction occurred in the early 20th century, including the historic homes that line North Broadway Street. Dutch colonial, American Foursquare and Tudor homes are available with covered porches and small, sloped yards. People walk through the neighborhood on its narrow, well-kept sidewalks, and residents mostly park on the street. The atmosphere is more suburban further north, with ranch-style and Cape Cod houses on half- and quarter-acre lots, often with driveways and garages. Newer homes start in the mid-$200,000s before reaching the mid-$500,000s as square footage increases and renovations become more common. The largest homes peak in the high $800,000s and have more foliage and privacy.
