Olde Orchard features custom-built homes from the 1970s
With homes that range from the late 1960s to the present day, there’s a little bit of everything in Olde Orchard. “The houses in Olde Orchard are unique because it seems like a lot of the homes were custom-built during the 1970s,” so there are not many duplicates,” says Angela Harris, a Realtor with e-Merge Real Estate. “It’s unique because it doesn’t look like any other suburb.”
Drive down one of the streets in Olde Orchard, and you’ll see another aspect of living in Olde Orchard. “There are mature trees that line the streets, which go together with the well-established homes,” Harris says. “It’s also a great location between Reynoldsburg and I-270.” The area is also very close to shopping destinations and about 15 miles east of downtown Columbus.
Homes offer space, variety and investment potential
There are ranch-style, contemporary two-story homes and split-levels. The homes have a lot of space, anywhere from 1500 to 2500 square feet. With all that space, it’s typical to find a house with four bedrooms, three bathrooms, an attached two-car garage and at least a partial basement. “The price of a house is going to start at $350,000 and probably go up to $450,000,” Harris says. A section was built in the late 1990s and early 2000s; some homes were built in 2023. “It would be sporadic and random, for example, if there were a vacant or empty lot in that area,” she says. Because several homes date back to the 1970s, some need repair, and the area attracts investors, who purchase and flip the house. There are also condos and townhomes in Olde Orchard, which are usually around $200,000 to $300,000 and have two bedrooms and two bathrooms.
