The 21.9 acres at 6837 E Walnut St went under contract the same day the current listing went live, and the ground was offered as two parcels β 6.65 wooded acres threaded with walking and riding trails, and 15.29 acres holding a two-story house built in 1982 β with the property’s southern boundary running along the New Albany city limits. Together, the five sales reported across the Columbus, Ohio metro area for the week ending September 20, 2026 came to $9.27 million.
New Albany turns up more than once here: it is the municipality for that top sale and for the No. 4 closing inside the gated Clivdon Mews, while the No. 2 house carries a Columbus address in the Oxford section of the New Albany Country Club community. Delaware and Powell account for the other two closings. The newest house of the group, completed in 2024, was its builder’s own residence; the oldest dates to 1982.
No. 1 — $2,300,000 · 6837 E Walnut St, New Albany, Ohio
The two-parcel property at 6837 E Walnut St closed on September 15, 2026 for $2,300,000, the highest-priced reported sale in the Columbus metro area for the week. The smaller of the parcels covers 6.65 acres of mostly wooded ground with a few small meadows and several building sites; a buyer would need to install a driveway there, and electric service runs along the road.
The two-story house on the 15.29-acre parcel dates to 1982 and has a reported 2,564 square feet. An eat-in kitchen, an office and a bedroom with an en-suite bath occupy the main level, and two more bedrooms and a full bath are upstairs. The extended two-car garage is heated and includes a workshop area and a half bath. Recent updates covered windows and exterior doors, a patio, landscaping and gutters, and the property runs on a private well and septic system.
Maintained walking and riding trails run through the property, and a small creek crosses it. A 24-by-29-foot pole building and a storage shed, both with concrete floors and new exteriors and roofs, stand on land that is mostly level and mixes woods with meadows that listing materials describe as suited to pasture, riding, hunting or homesteading. Bauer Realty & Auctions marketed the property at auction, taking bids online and in person, with the auction scheduled to begin closing on August 15.
Brian M Bauer and Scott T Bare of Bauer Realty & Auctions were the listing agents. The $2.30 million closing put them on the listing side of the highest-priced reported sale in RealtyWire’s Columbus, Ohio Metro Area Top 5 for the week ending September 20, 2026. Bradley L Shields of Coldwell Banker Realty represented the buyer.
