    What's special

    Sun-filled layoutDurable countersWell-proportioned bedroomsFresh flooring
    Two words... TAX ABATEMENT. Ask for details. Step into 256 N Monroe Ave and you'll see why King-Lincoln Bronzeville continues to draw buyers who want character without compromise. This 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home has been thoughtfully reimagined from top to bottom, sitting just a short drive from Downtown Columbus, Franklin Park Conservatory, Olde Towne East, and the dining and arts scene that makes this side of the city stand out. The main level greets you with fresh flooring, a sun-filled layout, and an open flow between the living and dining areas. The kitchen has been taken down to the studs and rebuilt with thoughtful cabinetry, durable counters, and a full suite of new stainless steel appliances, ready for weeknight dinners or weekend hosting alike. Head upstairs and you'll find well-proportioned bedrooms and refreshed bathrooms designed for everyday comfort. Then keep climbing. The finished third floor is the kind of bonus space that quietly changes how you live. Use it as a fifth bedroom, a private home office, a media lounge, a kids' hideaway, or a creative studio. Few homes in this price range give you this much flexibility under one roof. Outside, the generously sized lot offers room to breathe in a neighborhood that's actively writing its next chapter. Buyers, take note. This property qualifies for a 15-year City of Columbus residential tax abatement. Income eligibility requirements apply. Contact City of Columbus Department of Development for full program details, or ask your agent. Book your showing and come see what's possible.
