About this House

Don't settle for apartments with shared walls, noisy neighbors, and "luxury amenities" that stopped being exciting after the second week.

Live in an actual HOME in the heart of Grandview Heights.

This beautifully remodeled Cape Cod sits in one of Columbus's most sought-after neighborhoods, combining charm, walkability, top-ranked schools, and quick access to Downtown, OSU, and Grandview Yard.

And, because adulting is hard enough:

 LAWNCARE. SNOW REMOVAL. LANDSCAPING. ALL INCLUDED.

No mower. No shovel. No wasted Saturday mornings maintaining someone else's grass. While your neighbors are shoveling at 6 am, you're still in bed. You're welcome. ;)

## WHY PEOPLE LOVE GRANDVIEW ##

Because it's one of those rare neighborhoods that actually lives up to the hype.

You're minutes from:
 * Grandview Avenue
 * Grandview Yard
 * Downtown Columbus ( 2 miles)
 * OSU
 * Restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, boutiques, parks, fitness studios, and nightlife

And yes, the Grandview Heights school system is consistently ranked among the best in the Columbus area, one of many reasons people move INTO this neighborhood, not to mention incredible neighbors and a strong sense of community.

## THE HOME ##

This is not a cheap flip. This Cape Cod has been thoughtfully upgraded every few years since 2009

 * Approximately 1,600 sq ft, including a 3/4 finished lower level
 * 3 bedrooms
 * 1 full bath + 1 toilet in the basement

## WHAT A PREVIOUS TENANT SAID ##

"My husband and I and our two dogs absolutely loved living here. The fenced backyard, huge kitchen, patio area, and location made it perfect for entertaining and everyday life. The home is charming and cozy, and we always felt safe in the neighborhood. Management was responsive, knowledgeable, and never intrusive. We would absolutely recommend this home."

The reality is simple:

Single-family homes in Grandview Heights with fenced yards, finished basements, included exterior maintenance, private parking, and updated interiors rarely become available, especially at this price point.

If you've been waiting for a place that actually feels like home instead of "just another rental," this may be it.

Available Immediately.

Serious inquiries only. Background and reference checks required.

Everything outside is on us. Lawn maintenance, mulch, snow removal, gutter cleaning, tree trimming, and furnace filters are all included so you can actually enjoy the home instead of maintaining it. We even handle trash removal.
Tenant is responsible for gas, electric, and water.

    "the area has a lot of charm and there's a lot if people who take pride in home ownership but there are a few rentals that are completely over priced! Some rental companies take advantage just because of the area and charge absorbent amount for a rental that's not worth 1/3 of the asking price."
