Kirk Herbstreit, the former OSU Buckeye football player and current Gameday TV personality bought this 3600 sq. ft. home on Onandaga in Upper Arlington in 2004 for $739,500, only to bulldoze it. Thats an expensive lot! He then built a brand new home(not pictured) that is rumored to have cost $3-4 million.(below)
He recently just sold this Wedgewood home in Powell at 5166 Canterbury for $1,075,000 where he lived while his house was being built. Not a bad selling price considering he bought in 04' for $975,000 at the peak of the luxury market when other homes in this price range didn't appreciate much.(below)
OSU Football Coach Jim Tressel sold his old home on Arlington Ave in Upper Arlington due to it's lack of privacy. He opted for a larger setback lot on McCoy where he purchased this 2 acre, $1,375,000 home for list price. He now has a football field sized front yard which helps to keep stalkers off his front porch.(below)
I will continue with OSU theme.
OSU Basketball Coach Thad Matta bought this home in the Woods of Josephinum in Worthington on 8/12/2004. The home was only on the market for a week. They were asking $925,000 and Matta got them down to $895,000. The 4054 sq. ft. home is located on Seminary Ridge with a great lot backing to the Olentangy River. (below)
Former Buckeye Football Great and TV/Radio personality Chris Spiellman, bought this home on Edgemont in Upper Arlington back in 1996 for almost $700,000. He has since invested about the same amount of money on upgrades and renovation. His home is valued at $1.6 million and he pays the city almost $30,000 a year in property taxes. (below)
Former Buckeye Andy Katzenmoyer owns this home in Tartan Fields on Rob Roy Dr. He purchased this home in 2000 for $650,000. It was featured in the Parade of Homes, boasts a custom home theatre, and back to the golf course.
