In the molecule of the title compound, C23H20O3, an intramolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bond generates an S(6) ring. The central benzene ring makes dihedral angles of 80.17 (8) and 16.99 (7)°, respectively, with the benzyloxy and hydroxymethyl phenyl rings. In the crystal, molecules are linked via intermolecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form dimers. The dimers are connected by C—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and C—H⋯π interactions to form columns down the b axis.
