North Hilltop
Charm and character in 1920s homes
Known for a unique mix of family homes, North Hilltop hosts Cape Cods, Craftmans, and Colonial revivals all on quarter-acre lots along narrow streets. “These homes have been renovated to keep it updated, but it still has its charm,” says Breeckner. Most homebuyers can find something to suit their tastes here, with architecture including gabled roofs and windows and farmhouse style two-stories to brick four-square and classical-inspired bungalows with column-lined porches. Houses have a lot of history, with many standing from the 1920’s. Prices range from $100,000 to $300,000 for three- to four-bedroom homes. Newer homes or those that have been renovated are often at the higher end of the spectrum of options.Family fun at parks and night time casinos
A few city parks sit to the east: Rhodes Park is a popular spot to watch the Red, White, and Boom fireworks show on the Fourth of July with its large green field, along with having a track and playground for daily use. A wetland walking trail connects Glenview Park and Holton Park. Pasail. Past Holton Park is Holton Community Center which hosts classrooms, a game room, fitness center and a gymnasium. Fitness options include Hilltop YMCA, which hosts a fitness center, pool and daycare center. Camp Chase Trail runs along the train tracks to the north of the neighborhood and while locals do comment about the trash along the path, it still serves as a popular walking area. Parents can take the kids to pet llamas at Mid-Ohio Farm’s llama farm. Parks aren’t the only draws as the Hollywood Casino provides nightlife with restaurants and occasional live events with local bands.Popular dining stops along West Broad Street
North Hilltop has access to the usual chain stores. Kroger serves as the popular grocery store for the area at Consumer Square West. There are plenty of smaller markets, like Steele Ave Market which has served as the neighborhood’s corner store for years. West Broad Street hosts restaurants including Josie’s Pizza and Third Way Coffeehouse.A Stadium-architect designed building at West High School
West Broad Elementary School, rated C-minus on Niche, has nearly 400 students in pre-K through fifth grade. The student-to-teacher ratio is equal to the national average of 17-to-1. That ratio is lower as kids feed into the C-rated Westmoor Middle School, where the student-to-teacher ratio is 14-to-1 and the school is graded C-minus. Students also attend West High School, ranked C, which was constructed in 1929. The building was designed by the same architect who designed Ohio Stadium, home of the Ohio State Buckeye football team.A route to everywhere down Interstate 270
Interstate 270 experiences rush-hour traffic and frequent construction but still manages to provide easy access to areas surrounding Columbus, such as Dublin and Worthington, both 15 miles away. Interstates 70 and 71 lead anywhere outside of Columbus, with Cleveland and Cincinnati accessible within 2 hours.
