Cincinnati is filled with both up-and-coming, newer communities and historic, established neighborhoods, which means that when it comes time to build your custom home, you’ve got lots of choices.  If you’re leaning towards building a home in areas in Cincinnati with lots of history, like Hyde Park, Mount Lookout, Blue Ash, Indian Hill or Montgomery, you’re in great company.
