About Granville
Some people may view Granville as an enigma, while others may think this town possesses just the right amount of rarity. Either way, when you're exploring the small-town streets here, you certainly won't feel like you're in Central Ohio anymore. Granville exudes a nostalgic, New England style—a style that represents the down-to-earth, friendly nature of the town's residents. Just 35 minutes northeast of the state capital of Columbus, you truly get the best of both worlds when living in Granville.
Located along the western edge of the Appalachian plateau, Granville was originally settled by people seeking vast farmlands. In preparation for their move, advance parties of settlers went ahead to plant a fall harvest and to build mills on the Licking River. Thanks to these well-thought-out intentions, a community was already platted in detail when the New England settlers arrived that fall. Therefore, what you see in Granville today isn't a case of coincidence, but rather the long-term vision of what a New England-style town should resemble. Here, you'll find that the community's primary focus is preserving its distinctive rural character.
