Stretching toward the southern boundary of Grove City near the Franklin-Pickaway County line, Far South is more than just a directional label—it’s a lifestyle. This part of Grove City is defined by its open spaces, expansive lots, and deeply rooted connection to Ohio’s rural landscape. Residents here enjoy a tranquil pace of life, a strong sense of independence, and easy access to both natural surroundings and the conveniences of Grove City’s more urban areas. If you're looking for peace, privacy, and property, Far South delivers.
Far South is home to a diverse array of housing styles, ranging from older farmhouses and modular homes to modern custom builds and renovated ranches. Many homes sit on large lots—often 1 to 5 acres or more—providing space for detached garages, workshops, barns, gardens, and even small livestock.
Square footage tends to vary widely, with homes ranging from 1,200 to over 3,500 square feet. It’s not uncommon to find residences with wraparound porches, finished basements, and upgraded interiors. These homes often include fire pits, pools, or recreation spaces that take full advantage of the land’s natural beauty and privacy.
Living in Far South appeals to those who value autonomy and serenity. Whether it's families raising children with room to roam, retirees seeking a quiet retreat, or professionals escaping the high-density suburbs, residents of Far South appreciate a lifestyle that blends freedom with functionality.
The demographic profile is a mix of age groups, though most residents fall between 40 and 70. Many work in trades, healthcare, education, or remote careers, while others run home-based businesses or small agricultural operations. Household incomes typically range from $70,000 to $130,000.
One of Far South’s biggest selling points is the land itself. Residents enjoy wide-open views of the countryside, wooded areas, and vibrant sunsets that stretch across the horizon. The rural setting invites a variety of outdoor pursuits, including gardening, ATV riding, hobby farming, and stargazing in the low-light evenings.
Just a short drive north, residents can take advantage of Scioto Grove Metro Park, which features over 600 acres of riverfront trails, picnic shelters, and nature programs. Battelle Darby Creek Metro Park is also within reach, offering additional options for hiking, fishing, and connecting with nature.
Although Far South feels remote, it’s still within the South-Western City School District, which provides access to a wide range of educational services. Students in this area are typically zoned for schools such as Monterey Elementary, Jackson Middle School, and Grove City High School.
Nearby private options include Grove City Christian School and Our Lady of Perpetual Help, both accessible within a 15–20 minute drive. School bus routes and parent carpooling are common given the more rural layout of this part of Grove City.
While Far South doesn’t include any major retail centers, residents are just a 10–15 minute drive from key shopping areas like Buckeye Parkway and Stringtown Road. These corridors offer grocery stores including Kroger, Meijer, and Walmart, as well as pharmacies, banks, gas stations, and casual dining.
For weekend outings or unique local finds, many head to Grove City Town Center, where seasonal markets, festivals, and small businesses create a charming atmosphere that contrasts nicely with the rural calm of Far South.
Despite its out-of-the-way setting, Far South is still commuter-friendly. Residents can reach I-71 or US-62 in about 10 to 15 minutes, making travel to downtown Columbus, Groveport, or Circleville manageable. Commute times to central Columbus generally range from 30 to 35 minutes, depending on time of day.
The region also benefits from low traffic congestion, and with John Glenn Columbus International Airport reachable within 35–40 minutes, travel for work or leisure remains highly accessible.
Even in rural settings, access to healthcare remains a priority—and Far South residents are well-supported in that regard. OhioHealth Grove City Methodist Hospital is only a short drive north, offering emergency services, surgical care, and a wide range of outpatient services.
