This New Albany home is making the rounds on Zillow Gone Wild, and it is easy to see why.
At first glance, it reads like a typical five-acre listing just outside Columbus, until you learn the house was built around a 1950s bridge and still spans a creek that runs directly beneath it. Now listed at just under $800,000, the property has spent decades evolving around the water it was originally built to cross, which is exactly the kind of detail that sends it straight to “wait, this is real?” territory online.
Inside, the home offers 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and about 2,195 square feet of space, with the living room positioned directly over the creek and framed by large windows that keep the water in constant view. Outside, five private acres stretch along the same creek, with listing notes even mentioning kayak access from the yard, reinforcing the sense that this is not your average, standard suburban home.
Part Retreat, Part Conversation Piece
Despite the secluded feel, the home is just minutes from New Albany and Easton, placing it in that rare category of “quiet escape that is still close to everything.” It is being marketed as both a primary residence and a potential Airbnb, which tracks, because this is not exactly a house you forget after touring it.
And maybe that is why Zillow Gone Wild picked it up in the first place. It is not flashy in the traditional sense, but it is unusual enough that it breaks your sense of what a house is supposed to look like.
