Realtor.com
You don’t often see Moorish architecture in the Midwest, but that’s exactly the vibe of this $1,999,000 Cincinnati home, which hit market in early March.
With unparalleled river views and newly renovated windows and patios from which to enjoy them, the next buyer has surely found a unique slice of paradise in a prized neighborhood.
“The home is located within a Cincinnati suburb called Mt. Adams—a picturesque landmark community for the city, located on a high hill overlooking the Ohio River,” says listing agent Julie K. Back.

The 7,000-square-foot home has four bedrooms and 8.5 baths. It was built in 1987 by the renowned architect Austin “Dutch” Knowlton, of Knowlton Construction Co.
For locals, this name may ring a bell. Ohio State University’s school of architecture was named after Knowlton. He was also one of the founding owners of the NFL’s Cincinnati Bengals.
Along with the no-expenses-spared marble, hardwood, and stonework interior, the exterior of 945 Hill Street leaves a lasting impression.
“The front facade, top-level side windows, side doors, and foyer of the home have Moorish features with horseshoe shaped arches,” Back says.
The latest owners purchased the house in 2006 for $1.6 million and have made several notable upgrades. These include converting the rooftop to a fully functional outdoor living space and installing a state-of-the-art water heater system.
When it comes to location, this Mt. Adams property has plenty to offer.
“The home is minutes to downtown and the city’s sports, restaurants, and theater venues,” Back says.
The standout design and desirable location clearly appealed to one buyer. The home is already pending sale.
