What's special

Built in 2022 and exceptionally well cared for, this Merion Village gem offers the best of both worlds: all the character and walkability of one of Columbus' most beloved neighborhoods, without the maintenance headaches from a 120+ year-old home. With 11 years remaining on the tax abatement and top-tier property condition, this is one of those rare ''move-in ready'' homes that actually lives up to the phrase. Being located on such a darling street makes the Merion Village lifestyle especially easy to enjoy. Jennings Java is right around the corner, while Moeller Park, Schiller Park, Fox in the Snow Cafe, Thurman Cafe, and Red Brick Grill are all within walking distance. Whether it's coffee on a Saturday morning, a walk through the park, or dinner and drinks, some of the neighborhood's best spots are genuinely outside your door. Inside, the living room flows into the open kitchen/dining area, creating a generous space for everything from cozy nights at home to dinner parties with a full house. The oversized granite island anchors the kitchen and gives the cook plenty of room to work with while still being part of the conversation. The unfinished basement is where possibilities really open up. Currently used as an artist studio, the high ceilings and generous footprint offer tremendous flexibility for a movie room, home gym, office, additional living space, or whatever best fits your life. The sellers made one particularly smart upgrade: a new back deck gives a meaningful step up from the typical builder-grade concrete slab and creates an easy extension of the home for morning coffee, grilling, or entertaining. I don't know anything about Feng Shui, but I do know this home is filled with good juju and immaculate vibes. The owners have cared deeply for this property, and it shows - in the condition, the upkeep and the warmth you feel when you walk through the door. You're not just stepping into a house here. You're stepping into a home.
