223 Brighton Rd, Columbus, OH 43202

OPEN HOUSE: FRI 5-7pm. SAT 12-2pm. Tucked away on a quiet dead-end street in one of those special little pockets of Clintonville, this classic Craftsman bungalow offers something hard to find: a peaceful neighborhood setting with the Olentangy River and bike trail practically in your backyard. Directly out of the garage and onto the trail, follow the river, or head out to enjoy the local restaurants, coffee shops, neighborhood bars, antique shops and farmers market that make Clintonville such a beloved place to call home. Inside, the character is exactly what you hope to find in a home of this era--beautiful hardwood floors, original woodwork and doors, vintage hardware, a brick fireplace and details that simply can't be recreated. The renovated kitchen opens to the dining space, while the thoughtfully remodeled bath blends modern finishes with the home's original charm. The large covered front porch feels like an extension of the living space, and out back, a fenced yard surrounded by mature greenery leads to the detached garage and easy trail access. Upstairs, a large unfinished second floor is ready for its next chapter, with room to create an additional bedroom and bath, home office, studio or whatever fits your vision. Major improvements include a new roof on both the house and garage (2026), remodeled bath (2018), tankless water heater (2018), basement waterproofing with French drain and sump pump (2016), radon mitigation (2015) and furnace (2025). This is more than a great Clintonville house--it's a chance to live tucked away while staying connected to everything that makes the neighborhood special.
