Welcome to Berwick

All in all, not a bad real estate market in Berwick for 2010. There looks to be just over a six month supply of homes on the market. Berwick remains in good standing with Columbus area home buyers because of the affordability, good size homes, proximity to both downtown Columbus and Bexley and because it feels like a very nice, close knit, well taken care of neighborhood with attractive and unique homes and mature trees. Add to that mix an excellent Columbus alternative elementary school which now goes through 8th grade and you’ve got yourself one hot community.

Known for generous lots and sprawling mid century modern ranches that original owners are still turning over, it’s no surprise that of the 18 homes active on the market, 10 are ranches–5 of the 7 Berwick homes in Contract are ranches and more than half of the homes sold in Berwick were ranches. Berwick also boast a goodly number of cape cods and, outside of counting the often large basements, few homes in Berwick surpass 2500 sf.

Of course there are always a few exceptions — like 1362 Haddon Rd and its 6056 remodeled square feet that sold for $520,000 a few weeks ago.

Would you like me to break it down by North and South of Scottwood, East and West of Roosevelt? email me and I will be glad to help any way I can.
