About This Home
As of July 2025This exceptional German Village renovation combines historic charm with thoughtful, high-end design. From the moment you enter, you'll notice the open floor plan, soaring ceilings, and custom finishes that make this home an entertainer's dream.
The chef's kitchen is a true showpiece—featuring Jenn-Air professional-grade gas range, stainless steel double ovens, Carrera marble countertops, custom cabinetry, and a walk-in wine cellar (easily converted to a pantry). A cozy breakfast room just off the kitchen offers a bright spot for morning coffee or casual dining.Tucked off the kitchen, a well-designed mudroom and half bath add practical elegance to the main floor.
The Living Room features French doors, custom built-ins, a huge picture window with a leaded glass design and a decorative fireplace—ideal for a home library or a quiet evening at home streaming your favorite shows.
Upstairs, retreat to your private owner's suite with coffered ceilings, a spa-like bath with soaking tub, and a walk-in closet with custom built-ins. The second bedroom on the 2nd floor offers generous space & great closets and is adjacent to a full bath w/ shower and convenient washer & dryer tucked away.
The third floor includes a bright loft space and two additional rooms—perfect for a guest bedroom, office, or home gym—giving you flexibility to live and work in comfort.
Outside, you'll fall in love with the fenced yard, deck, and patio—an urban oasis perfect for entertaining. The RARE 3-car garage makes this a true German Village gem. With all new mechanicals, freshly painted inside and out, plus new carpet, this home is as turnkey as they come.
Just two short blocks from iconic Schiller Park, and surrounded by local favorites—restaurants, bars, coffee shops, and boutiques—this home places you in the center of one of Columbus's most beloved neighborhoods.
Luxury, layout, and location—this is the one you've been waiting for!
