Lakeside living in Symmes Township

About 15 miles northeast of downtown Cincinnati, Remington-Lake Isabella is a neighborhood in Symmes Township that has some unique differences from surrounding areas. “In the townships, you don’t have to pay the city income tax, so that is a huge draw to people moving into the area,” says Alison Moss of Keller Williams Seven Hill Realty, with 16 years of experience in the area. “On top of that, there’s a community feel with events like yoga in the park, town clean up events and other things that get the community together.” The area is known for being in the Sycamore County School District, which boasts some of the best ratings in the state. Lake Isabella provides an opportunity for folks to get in touch with nature, while nearby restaurants and shops provide all the conveniences of city living. The neighborhood has a 2 out of 10 CAP Crime index score, compared to the national average of 4 and rates particularly low on violent crime.

Large homes on quiet streets

Housing styles in Remington-Lake Isabella vary greatly, as residents will see grand Colonial-style homes, Greek Revival builds, and Tudor cottages. There is also a good mix of ranch-style houses and split-level builds. Prices range from $200,000 for a two-bedroom midcentury home to $1.7 million for newly-built six-bedroom homes, but most fall in the $500,000 to $800,000 range. The majority of the houses in the area are on winding roads that end in cul-de-sacs and feature private driveways for parking. Mature trees shade paved sidewalks, making it easy for exercise and dog walking. The large lots have spacious front yards and fenced-in back yards, ideal for pet owners.

Fun on Lake Isabella

The main source of recreation is Lake Isabella and the surrounding park on the neighborhood’s eastern end. The lake is stocked year-round and is a major fishing destination. Anglers can fish from the shore or a pier or rent a boat and fish from on the water. The Boathouse is a shop on the lake with fishing gear, snacks and beer for a day on the water. The surrounding park has areas for camping as well as a playground and picnic shelters. Hopewell Meadows Park has a walking trail and courts for tennis and basketball. The Great Sands Volleyball Club has seven indoor and seven outdoor courts for year-round play. There are leagues nearly every night of the week at Great Sands.

Lake Isabella is stocked weekly from March through October with catfish, trout, bluegill and perch.

Dining at Remington Tavern

The area is home to plenty of chain restaurants and fast, casual spots, but there are a few local eateries in the neighborhood. Kirby’s is known for the plethora of old guitars on the walls and a menu full of upscale bar food. Locals can also enjoy patio seating during the warmer months of the year. For a cup of Joe, Branch Hill Coffee is the place residents flock to. Branch Hill has a quaint feel, with specials written on chalkboards and pastries displayed in clear counters. For a beer and a place to watch the big game, Remington Tavern is another local favorite. Grocery shoppers won’t have to travel far to stock the fridge, as there is a Kroger located on Loveland Madeira Road. There are plenty of retail outlets in shopping centers located along Interstate 275.

Commuting on I-275

There is no public transportation available in the Remington-Lake Isabella area, so locals will need to have access to a vehicle. Interstate 275 cuts diagonally through the neighborhood, providing a way for locals to travel around the area easily. For those that don’t want to take the highway, “There are a lot of side streets so you’re not constantly on 275,” says Moss.
