Charming 2BR w/ Hot Tub + Yard, Walk to OSU + More is a renovated, smoke-free two-bedroom home base in Columbus’s Weinland Park neighborhood, positioned for easy access to Ohio State University and the Short North. The layout includes two upstairs bedrooms with queen beds, a full bath upstairs and a half bath downstairs, plus an open-concept living and dining area anchored by a fireplace. A fully stocked kitchen with oven/stove and microwave supports longer stays, and in-home laundry (washer and dryer) adds day-to-day convenience. Outdoors, the private fenced yard and patio are set up for downtime, featuring string lights and a hot tub added in April 2023; pets are welcome, making the yard a key perk for travelers with a dog. Tech and comfort amenities include fast free Wi‑Fi, air conditioning and heating, a dedicated workspace, and a 65" HDTV with Roku/Netflix for movie nights. The home is a short walk to South Campus Gateway, Budd Dairy Food Hall, Seventh Son Brewing, and the Short North Arts District, with OSU about a 10-minute walk for campus visits and game days.
