Ryland Heights, Kentucky, with its rolling hills and woodsy ambience, offers a rural residential experience just a short drive from all the culture and entertainment of central Cincinnati. “It has a very country feel,” says local Realtor Vicki White, who has been serving the area for over a decade. “It’s almost shocking how close it is to the city because you feel like you’re a hundred miles away — which is kind of what people like about it.”
As one might expect, Ryland Heights homes feature larger plots of land, giving residents ample space for gardens, play areas, and outdoor activities. The architectural styles vary from traditional ranches to more modern constructions, reflecting the community’s blend of longstanding families and newcomers. Freshly-built homes in the area’s new subdivision typically offer 1,200 to 3,000 square feet and go for between $275,000 and $400,000. Older farmhouses can go for a bit more, often because of the acreage that comes with them. Throughout the neighborhood, residents can expect to enjoy streets lined with woods and fields, along with spacious yards and gardens.
The area’s outdoor spaces are a defining feature, with the lush Kentucky greenery providing a scenic backdrop for home life. Most residents have enough yard space to host family gatherings and barbecues, but they also have access to a variety of picturesque greenspaces. Foremost among these is Middleton-Mills Park, which features all the standard park amenities along with some lovely walking trails. The Licking River is also a popular recreation spot, offering ample opportunities for fishing and boating.
Shopping options in Ryland Heights are modest, in keeping with its small-town feel. However, the extensive shopping centers, supermarkets and restaurants of southern Cincinnati suburbs like Taylor Mill are just a 6-mile drive for most residents. Grocery stores like Trader Joe’s and Remke, major department stores and even the local movie theater are just a short way away.
Dining in Ryland Heights reflects its countryside charm, with local eateries and family-owned restaurants providing a cozy and personal dining experience. Spots like Log Cabin Inn offer comfort food and cozy ambience close to home, while nearby shopping centers feature a wide variety of cuisines. Those looking for a quick drink after dinner can visit local watering holes like Miller’s Bar, where they’re sure to be greeted with cold drinks and familiar faces.
Most Ryland Heights commuters take State Highway 17, which provides access to the greater Northern Kentucky area and Cincinnati, Ohio. Downtown Cincinnati, which is home to the Bengals and Reds stadiums, along with dozens of entertainment venues and major employers, is just 16 miles away by car.
The area’s public schools are overseen by Kenton County School District. The neighborhood’s own Ryland Heights Elementary has an A-minus grade on Niche, while Woodland Middle School has a B. Scott High School has a B-minus grade and has undergone significant renovations in recent years, adding a theater, swimming pool and new gym.
In Ryland Heights, life unfolds at a leisurely pace amidst the natural beauty of Kentucky, with residents enjoying the dual benefits of private, spacious homes and the convenience of more urban amenities a short drive away.
