Many years ago back in the 1950's, the Pease Woodwork Company had a kit home factory in Hamilton, Ohio, not too far down the railroad tracks from Cellar Lumber. You could order a largely pre-built home built in their factory, and have all the parts and pieces transported either in a single railroad box car, or put on 3 or 4 semi trucks, and have it sent to the future home site for assembly. Nearly 70 years ago in 1956, Cellar Lumber sold one of these kit homes and it was built less than a mile away from us, at 589 E College Ave. That home (on 4.5+ acres of land) is now up for sale- apparently the paneling inside the house is all mahogany!

In the 1990's, a cul-de-sac (College Place) was built on a similar-sized piece of land immediately next to this one, with 17 houses (all 2 to 3 times as large as this kit home) eventually being built as the College Park subdivision. I think there's a pretty good chance that this house and land will be bought with the intentions of building another small new housing develop here as well, but we'll have to wait and see what happens. There are definitely not a lot of houses left this close to the uptown area of Westerville with yards as large as this one has, but back when it was built it would have been considered to be "out in the country"!

I'm pretty sure people think I'm joking when I mention we've been around here long enough that our first phone number was "5". I finally have some proof! Courtesy of a sponsoring advertisement found in my grandma's copy of the 1925 edition of the "Searchlight", Westerville High School's yearbook. (Please note: our phone number is no longer 5, it is now 614-882-2323!)

Update: re-paving is all finished up, other than still needing to re-paint the cross walks.

Wednesday June 14, 2023: East College Ave. in Westerville is currently being repaved, 1 lane at a time. While traffic is "being maintained" on East College, there is a long convoy of paving equipment blocking one lane so we'd recommend you avoid East College Ave entirely and use Summit Street to access the side entrance of our parking lot. From State St. / Route 3, head east on East Walnut Ave or head east on East Park St, then head north on Summit St. Or from Spring Rd., head west on East Walnut then head north on Summit St. Otherwise, the helicopter landing zone is located adjacent to the lumber yard.

We are closing out all of our old bundles of GAF, Timberline, and Certainteed shingles that have been stored outside. $5 per bundle, $20 per partial pallet, $100 per truckload (take as many as you can haul). Approximately 27 partial pallets,, around (700) bundles of shingles in total- some pallets have only a few bundles, some are nearly full pallets. Pick-up only, most bundles no longer have legible wrappers (or any wrapper at all), so unfortunately we DO NOT have a list of what is available, first come first served, no holds, no returns. We accept cash, Visa, Master Card, Discover (Sorry no American Express). Open Monday - Friday 7:30 am - 4:00 pm in Westerville.

Looks like the Westerville Habitat Partnership had a very successful Walls Build this past Saturday morning, great to see the stacks of lumber transformed in to the future walls for the next Habitat for Humanity of Delaware & Union Counties house project, we're looking forward to watching the continued progress.

08/16/2022

Cellar Lumber is proud to have had the opportunity to deliver framing lumber, OSB plywood, and nails to Otterbein University's The Point at Otterbein University this morning for the Westerville Habitat Partnership's 2022 Walls Build Project which is happening later this week. Local volunteers will be meeting to help build the wall sections for the next local Habitat for Humanity (Habitat for Humanity of Delaware & Union Counties) house this coming Saturday August 20, 2022!
