Dublin schools for Columbus costs

In the far northwest portion of Columbus, Foxboro sits just on the border of Dublin. “It’s part of Dublin City Schools, but with Columbus taxes, so that’s desirable to a lot of people,” says Realtor Thomas Hamrick with Keller Williams Consultants Realty, a lifetime Columbus resident. Foxboro's location means that residents can get the best of both Dublin and Columbus, with I-270 running along the southern border to take locals the 17 miles to downtown. In the neighborhood, residents live in subdivisions that are just a short drive from essential amenities and social activities in Dublin.

Foxboro is small neighborhood situated north of I-270 and west of Sawmill Road in Columbus Ohio.

Colonial condos and New Traditional

Foxboro’s subdivisions offer a mix of housing options. “The western side has condo communities selling for anywhere from 180,000 to 250,000,” Hamrick says. These condo communities, like those part of the Millcreek Commons subdivision, are situated in clusters with sidewalks leading up to individual units. Streets are lined with streetlamps. The condos are a mix of New Traditional and Colonial styles. On the eastern side of the neighborhood, homebuyers can find a mix of New Traditional bungalows and split-levels with a mix of brick and vinyl siding on neat lawns. Limbs of mature trees hang over the narrow sidewalks, providing essential shade. Most homes have one- to two-car garages, but the streets are also wide enough for street parking.
