About Commercial Point
Commercial Point is one of the fastest-growing new construction markets in the Columbus metro area. Located in Pickaway County just south of the Franklin County line, this small village has seen explosive builder activity over the past several years as land costs remain lower than comparable areas closer to the city. Major national and regional builders have established active communities here, attracting buyers who want brand-new homes with modern floor plans at more accessible price points. The area benefits from easy access to US-23 and proximity to major employment corridors on Columbus's south side. South-Western City Schools serve the area, which is a significant draw for families.
