This rare 2 bed, 1.5 bath gem in the heart of New Albany blends warmth, character, and community in all the right ways. Nestled on the cherished 1900 block of Ekin Avenue, where neighbors host an annual Christmas block party and light the street with glowing luminaries, this home offers the kind of charm that’s hard to find.
A wide front porch with a swing invites slow mornings, overlooking phlox flowers that spill over the original concrete retaining wall. The real wood siding preserves the home’s historic integrity, and the roof and dormers were replaced less than two years ago. Inside, tall ceilings, original hardwood floors, beautiful trim, and transom windows speak to its history. The living and dining rooms each feature inviting window nooks for seating or storage, and the decorative fireplace anchors the main living space. The bright kitchen opens to the backyard, offering efficiency and ease.
A main-floor bonus room provides flexibility for an office, nursery, or creative space. The vaulted primary bedroom upstairs is accented with exposed beams for added charm. The unfinished, waterproofed basement offers clean, usable storage, while the two-story garage or shed expands your possibilities.
Enjoy a private fenced backyard and side yard with three gated entries, a patio perfect for gatherings, and a 20-foot raised garden bed prepped with organic materials. Walk to schools, local eats, and the Ohio River Greenway. This one truly feels like home.
