OPEN HOUSE SATURDAY, 3/21 : 1 PM - 3 PM! NEW roof, NEW high-efficiency furnace, NEW central air, and freshly painted interiors set the tone for this beautifully cared-for Clintonville two-story, circa 1900. Thoughtful stewardship meets meaningful upgrades here, offering buyers the rare combination of original character and major system improvements that support long-term peace of mind. The exterior has been professionally finished with Rhino Shield, a durable, weather-resistant coating designed to protect against cracking and peeling for years to come. From the covered front porch to the rich natural woodwork and hardwood floors throughout, this home delivers the warmth and authenticity Clintonville buyers are looking for. The formal living room with French doors and a decorative fireplace creates an inviting focal point, while the formal dining room is perfectly suited for gatherings both large and small. A first-floor den with an attached full bath adds versatility for a home office, guest suite, or flexible living space. Positioned in the heart of South Clintonville near the Walhalla Ravine, this location is a true lifestyle driver. Just moments from Studio 35, the Clintonville Farmers Market, Whetstone Park of Roses, the Olentangy Trail, and an array of local restaurants and coffee shops. Easy access to OSU, downtown Columbus, and COTA makes commuting simple and convenient. For buyers seeking a classic Clintonville home with preserved character, key mechanical updates, and exceptional walkability, 521 Melrose Avenue is a standout opportunity.
