In the mid 2000’s, as the housing market was booming, many new neighborhood and subdivisions were built North of the City of Columbus. When Sawmill Parkway was extended North beyond the City of Powell, developers created an upscale golf-course community called Golf Village.

Golf Village consists of subdivisions North of Powell, to the left and right of Sawmill Parkway, centered around Kinsale Country Club.

Neighborhood History

After 2000, when most of the Golf Village homes began building, the housing crisis temporarily halted development. However, in 2012 and 2013 we saw new home construction coming back, as well as a number of condominium projects and surround neighborhood projects.

Housing

The typical Golf Village home has 4 bedrooms, 2 stories and offers more than 3,000 sqft of living space. Homes values start around $300,000 and go up way above half a million dollars. You will also find luxury condominiums with 2 to 3 bedrooms prices as low as $150,000 in the neighborhood.

I listed a Golf Village home earlier this year at Laurel Valley Dr. It sold for $370,000 in less than a month.

The largest and most expensive homes are around the Kinsale golf course. Most of them were custom built by Romanelli & Hughes, and are valued upwards of $500,000.

Restaurants & Shopping

For Club members Kinsale offers restaurants and a pro-shop for golfers.

For everyone else there’s a huge selection of shops and restaurants along Sawmill Parkway near Seldom Seen Road and further South toward the City of Powell. You will find many strip malls with new franchise stores, bars and restaurants.

Family & Fitness

The Kinsale Country Club offers a nicely equipped gym with all kinds of fitness classes, a spa, a swimming pool, tennis courts and, of course, golf.

Along Sawmill Parkway you will find child care facilities and private fitness clubs. Bike trails travel along Sawmill Parkway with a few spur trails into the surrounding neighborhoods.

Liberty Township Park is located at Home and Liberty Roads and offers an adventure playground for your kids, multiple soccer and softball fields, public tennis courts as well as a shelter houses you can rent for your next family grill out.

More parks and sports fields are available a few miles South in Powell.
