Auction Opportunity in Clintonville – 383 Crestview Avenue
August 13th, 2009 categories: Clintonville, For Home Buyers
It’s a rare home in Columbus, Ohio that has NEVER been for sale. Of course, homes that were newly built for the current sellers would fall into that category, but how about an 86 year old home in Clintonville that has never been for sale?

Historic Columbus Homes, Old Windows and New Ideas
March 24th, 2009 categories: Bexley, Clintonville, For Home Buyers, For Home Sellers, German Village, Grandview, Olde Towne East
I ran across a post today that made an impression on me. I show a lot of homes in the downtown neighborhoods where the homes can be as old they can be in Columbus–oldest maybe 140 years or so.

A Turn Lane @ North High & NorthBroadway?
January 15th, 2009 categories: Clintonville, Columbus News
For years I’ve said that this is the longest light in Columbus. It’s a busy, popular intersection and many people who live in Clintonville have to go through it at least a couple times a week.
