1425 Columbus Ave

This 1882 Manchester home has just been renovated from top to bottom, and it's ready for its next chapter. New systems, new finishes, new everything, all while keeping the character that makes this house special. The main level has been thoughtfully redesigned with an open, inviting layout that's equally suited for everyday living and entertaining. The living room welcomes you with a decorative fireplace, beautiful original stained-glass transom, and abundant natural light, blending historic charm with modern updates. The space flows seamlessly into the dining room, where a striking geometric accent wall creates a stylish focal point. The fully renovated kitchen features crisp white quartz countertops, a timeless backsplash, two-tone cabinetry in rich navy and white, stainless steel appliances, and a dedicated beverage station with additional counter space and a built-in wine refrigerator, making entertaining effortless. A large window above the sink fills the space with natural light, while the convenient main-floor powder room adds the finishing touch. Upstairs you'll find three bedrooms, with cushy new carpeting, including a primary suite with a walk-in closet. One of the additional bedrooms is a captured room, accessed through the other. That layout makes it a great fit for a home office in front with a bedroom just beyond, giving you the flexibility of a work-from-home setup while still having the extra bedroom a 3-bedroom home offers. Outside, the front porch becomes an extension of the home. It's a place to greet the day with a cup of coffee, linger over conversations, or simply enjoy a quiet evening outdoors. The front and back yards are partly fenced, giving you a comfortable spot to relax or get your hands in the garden. Rounding out the property is a detached two-car garage, offering plenty of room for vehicles, bikes, tools, and all the gear that comes with an active lifestyle. Location is a big part of the story here too. You're less than a mile from the Esplanade, the major mixed-use riverfront development now under construction along the Ohio River, with plans for retail, dining, green space, entertainment, and improved connections to the riverfront. You're also just 2 flat miles from Downtown and the North Shore—an easy bike commute—and public transportation is close at hand with a bus stop just a few doors down. It's an opportunity to enjoy the history and character that make Manchester special today while being close to the continued investment happening along the riverfront. This move-in-ready home puts you in a distinctive historic neighborhood with exceptional access to the city. Come see it for yourself.
