Almost a full acre, a private courtyard, and true single-level living in Middletown North. This contemporary ranch has a layout you don't see every day, with the home built around a courtyard that gives you a private outdoor space right at the center of it all. Inside, cathedral ceilings, cork/bamboo flooring, and plenty of natural light keep things open and comfortable. The eat-in kitchen features solid-surface counters, and the walkout family room adds extra space to relax or entertain. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and newer shower, plus there's a second bedroom, full bath, first-floor laundry, and 2-car built-in garage. And the expensive stuff? Already handled. New furnace and central air, tankless water heater, updated electrical, new sump pump, plus newer roof, siding, and windows. Refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, new electric range, washer, and dryer all stay. No HOA. Plenty of privacy, plenty of room, and almost a full acre to enjoy it. More pictures to come.
Rosedale-the Oaks, located between downtown Middletown and Smith Park, is a residential and park-adjacent Middletown neighborhood with tree-lined streets and a classic Midwestern streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Central Avenue corridor near downtown, where small storefronts, corner eateries, and civic buildings set a steady, everyday rhythm. Housing reads as early-to-mid-century, with tidy porches, brick facades, and deep yards that soften the blocks. Smith Park’s lawns and paths shape the outdoor routine, while the nearby Great Miami River corridor adds a sense of open horizon. Community touchstones include the Sorg Opera House, the Middletown Arts Center, and the Pendleton Art Center Middletown for performances, classes, and gallery nights.
