Riverfront parks and walkable streets define Harrison West
With waterfront parks, forested trails and historic homes near the city's downtown core, Harrison West offers an urban setting with access to green spaces and Columbus nightlife. Bordering the Olentangy River to the west and Victorian Village to the east, it's a largely residential neighborhood with a small business district of restaurants, breweries and shops. John Kohlhepp, a Realtor with Keller Williams who's served the area for six years, says these common hubs and the city's walkability create lasting bonds. "It's an easy place to build a community," he says. Proximity to leading medical care and Columbus's business district are other factors for potential homeowners.
Harrison Park offers a quiet view of the Downtown Columbus skyline and surrounding architecture.

Condos and townhouses mix with century-old architecture
Harrison West was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.

Depending on the condition, these homes are typically priced between $340,000 and $600,000. Homes in the same styles built in the 1980s and onward are also available, and often sell for $540,000 to $650,000.

"Our downtown population is expected to grow exponentially," says Jessica Ison, a Realtor with Ritchie Realty Group who was born and raised in Columbus. "There's still a lot of room for prices to go up, but right now it's still very affordable."
