    What's special

    Gas-log fireplaceFlexible floor planBeautifully updated brick homeBuilt-in ovenWarm welcoming bonus roomPeaceful reading circleInviting dining area
    This beautifully updated brick home offers a rare combination of space, flexibility, and convenience in one of Columbus's most charming, walkable neighborhoods. With 3 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and a 3-car garage, this thoughtfully maintained residence pairs timeless character with the comforts of modern living. Inside, a flexible floor plan accommodates a range of lifestyles. A first-floor bedroom with a private en-suite bath is ideal for guests, multigenerational living, a den, or a quiet home office. The spacious eat-in kitchen flows naturally into the inviting dining area. A warm, welcoming bonus room provides a beautiful view of the landscaped backyard, abundant natural light and a gas-log fireplace. A convenient first-floor laundry room adds welcome functionality. Hardwood floors are throughout the home. Each of the home's three bedrooms enjoys its own en-suite full bath, providing exceptional comfort and privacy for family and visitors alike. Recent improvements--including a newer A/C system, hot water tank, built-in oven, fresh exterior paint, and soffit repairs--offer added confidence and convenience. The 3-car garage provides ample room for parking and storage -- and the third bay could become an exercise room or gym. Beyond the home, the fenced rear garden is a true private oasis designed to be enjoyed from day through evening, and across the seasons. The custom-designed fountain provides the soothing sound of water. The distinct garden spaces invite you to linger: enjoy al fresco meals in the dining area, settle in with a book in the peaceful reading circle, or gather with friends around the BBQ bar for relaxed outdoor entertaining. Beautifully landscaped and thoughtfully arranged, this exceptional outdoor retreat feels like an extension of the home--private, tranquil, and made for making memories.
