About This Home

As of May 2015

Bexley charm meets modern convenience. Amazing remodel on this stately ranch includes newly painted exterior/interior; fully-updated kitchen with new cabinets, travertine tile back splash, top-of -the-line-Samsung stainless steel appliances and beautiful tile floors; gorgeous master suite with walk-in closet (7' x 5'), soaking tub, standup shower and extraordinary tile work; huge open plan living area; refinished original hardwood floors in living area and bedrooms; and new windows throughout. The fireplace has a gas line to warm you during cold Columbus winters or could be used as a wood burner. The two other bathrooms feature exquisite tile work and plenty of space to spread out. Over-sized, three-car, side-load garage and three seasons room round out this house. No detail spared.
