TAX ABATEMENT until JANUARY 2031. Making this the best value in the midtown market. One of the distinctive 'Six on Summit' freestanding homes, this Italian Village icon pairs modern architecture with carefree living in one of Columbus' most vibrant historic neighborhoods. Striking board-and-batten siding and a standing-seam metal roof create exceptional curb appeal, while soaring ceilings, abundant windows, real wood plank floors and a floating staircase define the light-filled interior. The open great room flows into a sleek kitchen featuring contemporary white cabinetry, pantry, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances and a gas range. Step outside to the charming screened porch is an ideal spot for relaxing or entertaining. Upstairs, the impressive owner's suite boasts a nearly 15-foot vaulted ceiling, dual custom closets and a spa-inspired bath with a glass-enclosed tiled shower and stone-topped vanity. The vaulted second bedroom includes its own full bath and access to a versatile loft, perfect for a home office, guest retreat, media room or creative space. Second-floor laundry adds everyday convenience, while the finished lower level provides nearly 300 additional square feet of living space plus unfinished storage. A one-car attached garage and additional parking pad complete the home. Located just three blocks from the Short North Arts District and Gallery Hop, with acclaimed restaurants, craft breweries, coffee shops, galleries, boutiques and nightlife nearby, this is sophisticated urban living in the heart of it all.
Italian Village, located between Downtown Columbus and Clintonville, is a historic and arts-forward Columbus neighborhood with brick-lined streets and converted warehouse spaces. The neighborhood’s character concentrates along North High Street near 5th Avenue, where espresso bars, chef-driven kitchens, and design studios keep sidewalks active. The Short North Stage and the historic Garden Theater anchor the cultural calendar, while Seventh Son Brewing Co. serves as a familiar gathering room. Restored Italianate and Queen Anne homes sit beside modern infill and loft buildings. Pocket parks and the Olentangy Trail shape daily routines with green space and riverfront miles. A steady rhythm of galleries and patios carries into the Short North Arts District.
