ONLINE ONLY REAL ESTATE AUCTION only at OhioRealEstateAuctions dotcom.Bidding will start at $280,000. Bidding Ends: Tuesday December 1st at Noon. We will consider pre-Auction offers. Bring your vision! Restore this mid-century gem, update it into your own private retreat, or take advantage of a rare, wooded lot in one of Columbus's most desirable areas. Tucked back in the trees on .78± acres, this 1951 mid-century contemporary feels like a cabin in the woods. Yet you're on Olentangy River Rd and trail, just minutes from Old Worthington, OSU and I-270. Properties this private and this close to everything don't come up often. Worthington School District. The home offers 1,600 sq ft over two levels with 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and a large second floor patio. Its concrete-block build, flat roofline and walls of windows give it true mid-century character, and almost every window looks out on the woods. Upstairs, an enclosed porch sits up among the treetops, a great spot for morning coffee. Downstairs, a large, covered patio steps right out to the gravel drive and stone-lined gardens. Outside, a 3-car attached garage gives you plenty of room for vehicles, tools or a workshop. A private wood deck tucked down in the trees is ready for a fire pit and rocking chairs. The rolling, wooded lot means wildlife and quiet right outside your door.
