Property Description

This is what people hope a 1916 Craftsman still feels like. Original hardwood, deep-stained trim, and soooo many windows. |+| Your days will start with morning coffee on the south-facing porch while the neighborhood wakes up, brick columns framing your view of the street, wicker chairs, and a rug turning the entry into an outdoor living room. Afternoons in the dining room, where a coffered ceiling of stained oak beams holds the space together the way it has for over a century, catching the light from three directions. |+| Dinner with friends spills between rooms through wide cased openings, the way old homes were designed to flow, conversation moving from the couch to the table without anyone raising their voice. Original hardwood underfoot in every room, a brick-and-wood fireplace mantel anchoring the living room, the slate tile foyer catching your keys at the door. The kitchen pass-through lets you keep talking to whoever's on the couch while you pour the wine. |+| At the back of the house, the laundry and mudroom become a plant-filled sunroom with banks of windows on two sides, the backyard pouring in, folding towels while watching the trees. |+| Upstairs, the primary bedroom opens through a private doorway into a 7-window bonus room built for whatever you need it to be... your office, your nursery, your dressing room, your quiet place to read with the door closed and the light everywhere. The kind of private wing you don't expect to find in 1,421 square feet. |+| Outside, a fenced yard with mature trees, a garden bed ready for tomatoes, and a paver patio for off-alley parking. Walk to Honey Cup when you need coffee that isn't from your kitchen. Walk to Glen Echo Park when you need to hear water over stone. Minutes from Ohio State, downtown Columbus, and the Olentangy Trail's new Clinton-Como connection. |+| The 'Grain & Glass' of this home isn't a detail; it's the reason you'll be able to stop looking.
