Positioned in the heart of Olde Towne East, 1236 Oak Street offers a distinctive opportunity in one of Columbus' most active and character-rich urban neighborhoods. Surrounded by historic architecture, walkable shops, restaurants and continued multifamily investment, the property is well situated to serve the area's growing residential and commercial activity. The property is zoned ARLD, Apartment Residential Low Density District, and benefits from an approved variance permitting the existing building to operate as an eating or drinking establishment or office. The variance also preserves the potential to return the property to residential use, giving a future owner valuable flexibility. Currently configured as an office, the building could be well suited for a neighborhood cafe, coffee shop, boutique retailer, professional office or other creative concept. Extensive renovations completed in early 2023 include a new rubber membrane roof with high-density cover boards, new electrical service and wiring, new plumbing, a new four-head mini-split HVAC system, new drywall and updated interior finishes. The current owner subsequently completed additional electrical improvements, refurbished the concrete floors and built out the space with a full kitchen. The sale also includes the adjoining corner lot at Sherman Avenue and Oak Street, providing additional visibility and compelling potential for future development. Together, the renovated building, flexible approved uses and additional land create an uncommon owner-user or investment opportunity in the heart of Olde Towne East. Prospective purchasers should independently verify zoning, variance terms, permitted uses, building systems and development potential.

Stop paying someone else's mortgage. Unit E at The Madison is 1,181 square feet of original 1920s craftsmanship, with in-unit laundry and central air, in one of Olde Towne East's most striking buildings. You come in through a real foyer, with hardwood floors and deep stained trim that carries through the entire unit. The living room is the showpiece: a bank of divided-light windows that fills the room with afternoon sun, and a decorative fireplace with a figured marble surround and original mantel. A separate formal dining room sits between the living room and the kitchen. You do not get that layout in new construction at any price. The galley kitchen is fitted with custom wood cabinetry built floor to ceiling, tile counters, gas cooking, dishwasher, and stainless appliances, plus an antique fold-down table tucked into the wall. The full bath is the original 1920s tile work, preserved rather than torn out. White subway tile with a marble cap, recessed tile niches, hex tile floor, and a deep cast iron tub fitted with a modern rain shower. Two bedrooms, hardwood throughout, crown molding in every room, central air, and in-unit laundry hookups, so no hauling baskets to a shared basement machine. The Madison is one of the finest 1920s buildings in Columbus. Georgian architecture, brick with limestone detail, a columned entry beneath a carved pediment, and interior corridors finished in terrazzo under plaster picture-frame molding. Keypad entry at the unit door. Out back, a brick paver patio and garden. Walk Score of 72 puts coffee, dinner, and errands on foot. Franklin Park Conservatory, Gemüt Biergarten, Upper Cup Coffee, and the Parsons Avenue and Oak Street corridors are all minutes away, with downtown Columbus a short drive. The HOA fee covers water, sewer, insurance, and lawn care, which keeps the monthly number predictable. This is the bridge from renting to owning. Schedule a showing and start building equity.
