With its unparalleled river views and newly renovated windows and patio, the next buyer is sure to find a unique piece of paradise in a prized neighbourhood.

"The home is located on the outskirts of Cincinnati in Mount Adams - a picturesque urban landmark community located high in the mountains overlooking the Ohio River," said Julie K. Back, listing agent.

The 7,000-square-foot home has four bedrooms and 8.5 baths.

It was built in 1987 by renowned architect Austin "Dutch" Knowlton of Knowlton Construction.

For locals, the name may ring a bell. The Ohio State University's School of Architecture is named after Knowlton. He was also one of the founding owners of the Cincinnati Bengals of the National Football League.

Accompanied by a no-expense-spared interior of marble, hardwood and stonework, the exterior of 945 Hill Street is impressive.

"The front of the house, top floor side windows, side doors and foyer all have the Moorish character of horseshoe arches," Back says.

The latest owners purchased the home in 2006 for $1.6 million and have made several noteworthy upgrades.

These include converting the roof into a fully functional outdoor living space and installing a state-of-the-art water heater system.

When it comes to location, this Mount Adams property has a lot to offer.

"The home is just minutes away from the city centre and the city's sporting, restaurant and theatre venues," says Back.

The outstanding design and ideal location clearly attracted a buyer. The home is already awaiting sale.
