Tucked among the tree-lined streets South of Lane, this classic Upper Arlington home pairs timeless charm with everyday comfort. This classic 1940s home blends timeless style, warmth, and the kind of comfort that never goes out of fashion. Hardwood floors, a welcoming living room with a fireplace, and a bright kitchen with stainless appliances open to a cozy dining area and screened porch. Upstairs, an owner's suite with its own fireplace and double closets, two additional bedrooms, and a full bath. A finished lower level adds flexible space for work or play, and the fenced yard and two-car garage complete the picture. Near the Shops on Lane Avenue and The Ohio State University, this home offers the best of suburban living—strong community ties, top-ranked schools, and a proud Upper Arlington spirit.
