Does your Columbus new homes search include suburbs outside of the city? If so, you may wish to take a look at Mount Vernon, which in recent years has developed into quite a thriving community. Downtown has undergone major renovations, with the exterior facades rehabilitated and a vigorous effort to maintain and preserve the many older buildings in the area – and the city assures residents that the best is yet to come. The proof is in the pudding: The "All American City" title earned by Mount Vernon in 1965 was revisited nearly 30 years later, when it was named "Ohio's Most Livable Community" by Ohio Magazine.

But where does one go to find new homes in Mount Vernon, OH? It isn’t as hard as you may think. For one, several builders have taken to the area, the most notable of which is Epcon Communities. They had the foresight to place a great new home community in the heart of Mount Vernon, knowing that professionals, families, and active adults would all gravitate toward the opportunity to live in a new home in an older, established township. What’s the community? The Village of Colonial Woods, where owners can enjoy a private, country setting in this quaint, historic town. Now, we know what you’re thinking: "Don’t new home communities have bare, immature landscaping?" Not at The Village of Colonial Woods, where mature trees are scattered throughout the serene location.
