About 905 Western Ave
Look no further! This historic Italianate is located steps away from beautiful Devout Park with a quick access to all major highways, downtown Cincinnati and Mainstrasse Village. Current owner fell in love with the house, and restored it carefully preserving its historic charm. The wall in the main living room on the ground floor was opened to expose 100 years old brick. A solid oak fireplace mantel was added together with crown molding. The hallway leads to an adjacent room that can be used as in-law suite or 3rd bedroom with an independent entrance and full bath - both added by current owner. Enjoy quiet evenings in front of a freestanding Danish wood-burning fireplace on the second level with outdoor access. 2 bedrooms share a full bath on the 3rd floor. Master bedroom has incredible city views. The backyard drowns in green from magnolias to wisteria to white raspberries. Energy efficient furnace and new AC unit were added with city permit, new window unit in 2nd bedroom, all new light fixtures, window shutters and rails, smart thermostats, etc. This house can become your peaceful retreat steps away from the vibrant cities of Cincinnati and Covington.
