Amberley is easy to find, sitting just northeast of central Cincinnati and just above Bond Hill. The residential neighborhood's parks, tree-lined streets and highly rated schools add to the suburban feel of the neighborhood also known as Amberley Village. Nearby are Cincinnati's major league sports teams and Fortune 500 companies. Close to 3,500 residents live in the 4 square mile village. Size aside, Amberley is packed with hundreds of acres of parkland, offering nature trails, tennis, pickleball, aquatics, and playgrounds. “It’s preserved its charm,” says Austin Long, a Realtor with Keller Williams Advisors Realty, who sells homes here. “We get a lot of buyers here who are particular, like, ‘I’m only looking at Amberley Village.’”
Located in Hamilton County, Amberley is a popular place to which to relocate, and it was voted one of the best counties in Buckeye State. Attracting first-time homebuyers, the community consists of older homes on big lots, mid-century homes and starter homes. Real estate sells quickly, and many homes have multiple offers and sell close to the asking price or above. “It’s an anomaly for the area because it didn’t fluctuate in its value too much, and people have always kind of wanted to be here,” Long says.

Bungalows and much more
A drive through Amberley reveals tree-lined blocks and, noticeably, “a larger concentration of bungalows,” Long says. “Lots of Tudor-style homes, dramatic architecture, Italian architecture. Nothing over two stories.” The median price for a single-family home is around $485,000, with homes generally ranging from around $450,000 to about $1 million. Lower-cost homes are available as well. But homebuyers should act quickly to snatch one. “A three-bedroom, two-bathroom is probably around $250,000. But, there’s no inventory and it’s such a small area, so nothing pops up over there. So, when things do pop up, buyers will pay more than things are worth,” Long says.
Modern Styled-Ranch homes are scattered throughout Amberley.
Amberley sports a variety of home types.

Making the grade in Amberley
Amberley students are in the B-minus-rated Cincinnati City School District. They may attend Niche C-rated Roselawn Condon Elementary School, then A-plus-rated Walnut Hills High School, which serves 6th through 12th graders. Some residents send their children to one of the area's many highly regarded private and parochial schools.
Roselawn Condon Elementary is where many Amberley residents send their kids in Pre K through 8.
These are the stairs at Walnut Hills High School that lead to the main entrance.

Amberley parkgoers speak French
Green space is abundant in Amberley, the largest of which is French Park, a favorite outdoor spot named for local businessman and art collector Herbert Greer French, who donated his property to the village in 1943. Today, its 275 acres of lush parkland are a popular place to hike, enjoy spectacular views and hold special events. “All of Amberley is located around this park. It’s a beautiful spot,” Long says. Amberley Park and Amberley Green are two more places where folks enjoy pickleball, tennis, nature trails, and family-friendly playgrounds.
Amberley Village Park and Track has a playground for the kids.
French Park is great for letting the kids play along the nature path in Amberley.

Shopping in the Centre of it all
Residents can reach numerous shopping and dining experiences with fine restaurants, diners and breweries nearby and in downtown Cincinnati. Head south to Montgomery Road for Revolution Rotisserie or west to Reading Road to discover other eating spots. Meanwhile, Kenwood Towne Centre, about 15 blocks east, answers shoppers’ call with retail stores like Trader Joe’s, TJ Maxx, and Whole Foods too.
Take a walk along Montgomery Road and explore the vast retail and restaurants in Amberley.
Revolutionary Rotisserie is a Amberley local favorite when it comes to lunch and dinner.

Downtown in a hurry
Sandwiched between Interstate 75 and Interstate 71, commuters to work downtown have a relatively easy go of it and about a 20-minute drive to travel the 8 miles to the airport. “There’s not a lot of traffic. I would say the speed limit is 25 mph,” Long says. Bus service is available south of the community on Section Road. However, most people here are inclined to drive.
Highway access makes for easy travel to local parks and schools as well as Downtown Cincinnati.
Access to Interstate 71 and Interstate 75 make Amberley convenient to travel to and from.
