New Albany-Westerville Area, Ohio Top 5 Home Sales: A $2.0 Million Galena Home Leads a Week Centered on New Albany

A builder's own home near Hoover Reservoir, a Georgian on a golf course and a Cape Cod that drew more than its asking price were among the week's top sales.

New Albany-Westerville Area, Ohio Top 5 Home Sales: A $2.0 Million Galena Home Leads a Week Centered on New Albany

These are the five highest-priced home sales reported in the New Albany-Westerville Area, Ohio for the week ending November 8, 2026, and together they came to $6.008 million. Three of the homes are in New Albany, with one each in Galena and Blacklick. Four are in Franklin County and one is in Delaware County.

The group runs from a 1995 home overlooking a fairway to two homes finished in 2019, and from a Cape Cod to a Craftsman to a Modern design built for entertaining on a large scale. Two of the five were represented on the listing side by agents of the same brokerage.

No. 1 — $2,008,000 · 9525 Britonwoods Dr, Galena, Ohio

Top home sale No. 1 in New Albany-Westerville Area, Ohio β€” 9525 Britonwoods Dr, Galena, Ohio, week ending November 8, 2026

The week’s top sale was a Modern home in the Britonwoods neighborhood of Galena, built in 2019 as the personal residence of the owners of Diyanni Homes. It sold for $2,008,000. The home sits on 2.02 wooded acres, the largest lot among the five, and Hoover Reservoir is across the street. The property also has water views, and it is convenient to shopping, dining and the airport.

At 6,983 square feet, it is the largest home in this Top 5, and its five bedrooms and seven bathrooms, six full and one half, are also the most of the group. Much of it was planned around hosting. There are several preparation areas, with more than one refrigerator, dishwasher and microwave. A bar, a wine room and a coffee bistro serve guests, while a game room and a movie room give them somewhere to go afterward.

Outside, a pool and a hot tub join an outdoor kitchen and a large covered porch fitted with screens that roll down automatically. A patio, a shed and an outbuilding are also on the grounds. The interior finishes lean toward wood: cabinetry custom built by Amish craftsmen, hardwood floors, wood beams and custom barn doors. A wellness spa room, a safe room, a built-in Sonos sound system and a whole-house backup generator round out the home, which also has a full basement, a gas fireplace and a three-car attached garage. The property last sold for $209,000 in 2019.

Craig Buehler and Tina M Powell of Coldwell Banker Realty were the listing agents, and Benjamin J Goodman of The Brokerage House represented the buyer. The sale took first place in this week’s ranking, and it was one of two homes in this Top 5 listed by Coldwell Banker Realty agents; the other, in Blacklick, came in at No. 4.

Top home sale No. 2 in New Albany-Westerville Area, Ohio β€” 4789 Yantis Dr, New Albany, Ohio, week ending November 8, 2026

A Georgian home on the New Albany Country Club golf course, overlooking the third fairway, sold for $1,250,000 and took second place. Built in 1995, it is the oldest home in this Top 5. Its half-acre lot is wooded, and leisure trails, the neighborhood park and Market Street are all close by.

Inside, ceilings rise to 11 feet, and the rooms are finished with hardwood floors, crown molding and millwork in custom cherry. The two-story family room has a marble fireplace, and the kitchen pairs custom cabinetry with quartz countertops. A set of French doors leads to a brick-walled terrace and a fenced, landscaped backyard with a view of the golf course.

The home has 4,483 square feet, four bedrooms and five bathrooms, four full and one half, along with two fireplaces and a three-car attached garage. Three of the bedrooms are suites above grade. The fourth is in the finished lower level, which also has a full bath, a media room and bonus space. The listing points to room for change: the current living room could become a first-floor owner’s suite, and the library could be joined to new space built above the kitchen. The property last sold for $735,000 in 2020.

Erin Spalding of Cutler Real Estate was the listing agent, and Jane Kessler-Lennox of New Albany Realty, LTD represented the buyer.
