Franklin Park Gem - Historic meets Modern w/ Space for the Whole Crew - 4BR, 2BA
Restored 1907 brick home facing Franklin Park Conservatory's cascading pools and waterfall. The moment you walk in, your shoulders drop. Your front yard happens to be Franklin Park Conservatory & Botanical Gardens — ranked one of the 35 Most Beautiful Places in the U.S. by House Beautiful. 88 acres, a grand glass conservatory, and Dale Chihuly glass. It's across the street. Exposed brick, locally made furniture, three floors of comfortable space. East Market through the backyard. 10 mins to all.
THE SPACE: Walk into a historical oasis. Not a flip. Not a corporate rental. A genuine piece of Columbus history, built when this neighborhood was already legendary — and restored so it earns that reputation again. Built in 1907, restored in 2025, and full of the kind of character that new construction simply can't fake. Spread across three floors with exposed brick, original pocket doors, ornate ironwork, and arched windows. The furniture was sourced locally — because it felt wrong to do it any other way.
WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT: - Original 1907 brick, pocket doors, and ornate ironwork throughout - Franklin Park Conservatory cascading pools and waterfall right across the street - East Market through the backyard — coffee at Winston's in 4 minutes - Handcrafted Columbus-made dining table — locally commissioned - Fully stocked kitchen — coffee, tea, and water waiting on arrival - Pet-friendly — bowls, wipes, bags, and toys provided - Free on-street parking, always available
LAYOUT: 1st Floor: Exposed brick, original pocket doors, handcrafted dining table, cozy reading nook, Smart TV, and a full bath. The kind of space you don't want to leave. 2nd Floor: Two bedrooms, full bath, and in-unit washer/dryer. 3rd Floor: Two more bedrooms and a full bath. Loft: A tucked-away twin bed on the top floor — perfect for the kid who wants their own space, the early riser who wants to disappear, or the person who just needs a door between them and everyone else.
Start your morning with coffee on the porch listening to the waterfall. End your night whenever you want — this is your place.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD: You're in Olde Towne East, one of Columbus's most walkable and beloved historic neighborhoods.

Sarah was a very attentive host, super easy to communicate with. The house is awesome, beautifully redone. Location is great…so much to do within walking distance between the market area and Franklin Park. Overall amazing experience!! Highly recommend!
Great location, beautiful home. Easy chexk in/out. Close to airport & downtown night life. Plenty of room for family of 6. Across from Franklin Park was a bonus!!!Mordern bathrooms and comfy sitting areas. We had a great time playing games onntje large table. CLEAN home is always a miliat for me. Love it, would visit again!!
Couldn't tell you. The host double-booked the space. When I went the property at my check-in time I found another family had been there the past 5 days and would be staying through until 2 days after our intended stay. The owner lied when I contacted them stating there was a maintenance issue and we wouldn't be able to stay. Still waiting for our full refund. Not to mention the last minute scrambling we had to do to find alternate accomodations at the last second. Super unhappy.
I didn’t have to wait to complete this review! What can’t I say about this listing. 1st of all Sarah was very attentive to any questions we had which weren’t many and she was easily reachable. The instructions for check in and out were very easy and clear. Now the unit. OMG it was beautiful. The beds were super comfy. The space was cozy and inviting. We could tell Sarah out in her time and heart on this listing! The location is near many wonderful landmarks and in a good spot to reach many attractions in a decent amount of time. She had complimentary items like water and coffee and popcorn for your usage. It was overall just a great listing! Definitely will return here anytime we need a home away from home in Columbus!

Why they chose this property
Olde Towne East is one of Columbus's most vibrant and historic neighborhoods. You get the perfect mix of quiet parkside living right across from the Franklin Park Conservatory and waterfall, while being just a short walk to local spots like the East Market. Plus, you’re only 5 to 10 minutes from Downtown, German Village, and the Short North.
What makes this property unique
It’s the perfect blend of historic bones and modern comfort. Built in 1907, this brick duplex is packed with original architectural details, soaring ceilings, exposed brick, and character you simply cannot replicate in new construction. (And yes, the 115-year-old toilets have plenty of opinions, but they function perfectly!)
A recent renovation brought the entire space up to speed with modern living, from central high-speed internet to beautiful, locally crafted furniture made right here in Columbus.
To top it off, I offer a curated menu of local concierge services—like in-home massage therapy, private chef experiences, dog walking/training services, tickets/reservations and even trusted babysitting—so you can get the ultimate, tailored Columbus experience without lifting a finger.
