If you’ve been craving a little peace without giving up convenience, this home delivers exactly that. Tucked quietly off Valley View Road on just under an acre, this charming New Albany classic gives you that “country-at-the-edge-of-town” feeling while still putting you minutes from every amenity on State Street. Lovingly cared for by the same family for nearly 40 years, the home has the kind of solid craftsmanship and character you just don’t see anymore: real hardwood floors, arched doorways, built-ins, a cozy wood fireplace, and natural light that pours into every room. Upstairs is a huge finished attic space with exposed beams and plenty of storage space; think guest room, playroom, office, or the ultimate creative space. And the full basement gives you tons of storage, gym space, or workshop potential. Outside is where this property really shines. The home sits well back from the road with a large, flat front yard, a long paved driveway, and a detached 2.5-car garage. Out back, you’ll find an above-ground pool with a deck, a play area, and mature trees wrapping the property in privacy. It’s quiet, peaceful, and feels worlds away even though you’re only a few minutes from restaurants, groceries, coffee, hospitals, and everything else New Albany has to offer. If you’re looking for space, character, privacy, and convenience all in one place - welcome home. Homes like this don’t stay in the family for 40 years unless they’re truly special. Now it’s your turn.
