A small village on the Ohio River
Founded in 1814 by Jacob Light, a veteran of the American Revolution, the village of New Richmond, Ohio was named after Richmond, Virginia. Situated against the scenic banks of the Ohio River and sharing a border with Kentucky, New Richmond's historic downtown is known for both its beautiful vistas and waterfront charm. "This area is growing because it has a lot going for it," says Howard Hanna Real Estate Services Realtor Jessica Baker. "The river view from Front Street is amazing, and people appreciate the small-town feel." While the area is prone to flooding, its location about 20 miles southeast of Cincinnati makes New Richmond viable for commuters looking for a close-knit community with a laid-back feel. "If you like boating, this area is perfect too," Baker says. "Believe it or not, there are several Airbnb's along the river in town that do very well, so it's an attractive area for investment, too."

Cottages, ranch-style designs and contemporary builds
While some of the homes in New Richmond were built before 1940, more than half were wiped out by a large-scale flood in 1937. Today, buyers can choose from houses built from the 1940s to the present date, ranging from modest bungalows and classic ranch-styles to elegant Victorians. "There are [also] new builds here, and people are taking flooding into consideration with the design of their homes. Lifting up the bottom floors," Baker says. Buyers should also note that homes on the west side of New Richmond—closer to the river—are more susceptible to flooding than those on the east side. Most houses here are situated on modest lots and span less than a quarter of an acre. Prices here typically range from $150,000 to $350,000, depending on the property's age, size and location; and the median price comes in at just under $300,000, putting it on par with the Greater Cincinnati area's median price of around $280,000.
