Custom Brick Ranch on 4.7 Private Acres/Gunite Pool/Private Lake 

Nestled on 4.7 acres of serene, tree-lined land, this one-of-a-kind chalet-style brick ranch is a masterclass in custom design and relaxed luxury—expertly crafted by renowned builder Don Steffen. Located just 25 minutes from downtown Cincinnati, the property offers a rare combination of total privacy, resort-style amenities, and refined indoor comfort.

A  1-acre private lake greets you at the entrance, setting the tone for the tranquil living experience that lies ahead. Inside, over 3,200 square feet of carefully finished space includes 3–4 bedrooms, gleaming hardwood floors, soaring vaulted ceilings, and two cozy fireplaces. The spacious kitchen features new stainless appliances and natural wood cabinetry, blending modern convenience with timeless warmth.

The finished lower level is designed for entertaining, complete with a custom wet bar, wine fridge, and ample space to gather. Outdoors, your personal resort awaits: a custom gunite pool, a shaded gazebo, and a wrap-around deck offering peaceful views of the lake and surrounding landscape.

A breezeway connects the main home to a two-car attached garage, while a detached two-car garage with loft offers flexible space for a workshop, studio, or guest suite. With geothermal HVAC (2019), a Generac whole-house generator (2016), 80-gallon water heater (2017), and a concrete drive, every practical detail has been thoughtfully addressed.

Whether you're poolside, casting a line at sunset, or simply enjoying the stillness, this exceptional property offers a lifestyle of privacy, elegance, and everyday peace.
