Back to the list helpfully compiled by Cincinnati USA! Today's featured 'hood is Clifton, home to the University of Cincinnati, a few hospitals, the fantastic Cincinnati Zoo, and some of the most popular night life in the city. From concerts at Bogarts on Short Vine to ethnic food and specialty shops on Ludlow, Clifton has plenty to see and do. Thanks to the high population of university students, this area is also very walkable -- making a property in this area great to live in OR to rent out for nearly guaranteed income! While there are several subsections of what many of us know as Clifton, including Clifton Heights, University Heights, Corryville, and Avondale, for the purposes of our home search we'll use the MLS-defined area of Clifton.
- CRAFTSMAN BUNGALOW: This 3 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom single family home on Foulke Street has gorgeous details and a back deck. The front porch has been enclosed to add more usable space for a total of 1,393 square feet, and the roof was replaced this year! $103,900
- 2.5 STORIES, 100 YEARS OF HISTORY: This 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom single family home on Southview Avenue boasts an updated kitchen, newer roof, and a large open room on the 3rd floor that could be used as a fourth bedroom. With just over 2,000 square feet of living space, you could live here yourself or rent it out! $124,900
- DOUBLE LOT WITH A VIEW: Buy it now and rent it out when you upsize -- this 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom home on Klotter Avenue has great views from the 2nd floor deck and a private backyard. Plenty of updates in this 1,200 square foot home, including the kitchen and bathroom. $125,000
- MOVE-IN READY CONDO: This 2 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom condo is in the basement of a 120 year old former single family, but there's plenty of light and open space! There is a private entrance, but the HOA takes care of the big stuff (including hazard insurance). Definitely worth looking at the 1,290 square foot unit, created only 5 years ago with great finishes. $129,000
- UPDATED GEM OVERLOOKING PARK: This 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home has been completely renovated -- and qualified for tax abatement! This one features a master suite and a rear deck that overlooks Fairview Park. For 1,536 square feet this close to downtown, $199,000 doesn't seem too bad!
Hope you enjoyed the tour! There's plenty more on the market in Clifton, but move-in ready homes in the Gaslight district are definitely selling more quickly than anything else. For investors considering buying in Clifton, be sure you consider carefully how many bathrooms you have for all the bedrooms -- even college students need some privacy!
