Parking at Jeffrey Mansion:

The driveway into the grounds of Jeffrey Mansion will take you to the front of the house and a circular drive where you can drop off passengers and food. A handicapped ramp is located at the front of the mansion and a small wheelchair ramp enters through french doors on the south portico. A very small (10 spaces) parking lot is available on the northside of the circular drive and we ask that this be reserved for severely handicapped and those bringing equipment and supplies. Two smaller lots are available behind the mansion and can be accessed from CLIFTON AVENUE. You can walk up to the back of the mansion from these lots. You may park on PARKVIEW as well as COMMONWEALTH immediately in front of the mansion. It is a short walk up the drive to the mansion. Please observe all parking signs as you will be ticketed by Bexley police for parking illegally.
