Building a House in Ohio – Choose Your Location

Each distinctive Ohio region has its own unique personality as a setting for stately timber frame homes. Ohio landowners who wish to build must first decide on the best location. We can advise you as to the best design elements to take full advantage of the natural surroundings.

Central

This region includes the state capital of Columbus, with its youthful, vibrant atmosphere. Strong in cultural offerings and universities, Columbus is a center for ingenuity and intelligentsia. There are many nature preserves, parks, trails and ponds. Surrounding towns such as Dublin, Westerville and Grove City each have their own unique charm. 

Northeast

The main city in this diverse region is Cleveland. Located on the shores of Lake Erie, this area has many ethnic neighborhoods, with landscapes varying between suburban towns, rolling hills, country roads, vineyards and the horse-drawn buggies of the Amish community. 

Northwest

With miles of shoreline on the banks of Lake Erie, the northwest area of the state offers many recreational activities and boasts both farmland and automobile factories. In addition to cities, towns and villages such as Oak Harbor, Sandusky and Toledo, there are the island communities of Put-in-Bay, Middle Bass, Kelleys and Pelee.

Southeast

A nature enthusiast’s dream, Southeast Ohio is at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, with more than a dozen state parks, seven state forests, three nature preserves and the Ohio and Muskingum rivers. As such, there are many picturesque settings where your timber frame home will blend right in with the natural beauty. Towns include Athens, Marietta (the “Riverboat Town”) and Pomeroy.

Southwest

Explore the major cities of Cincinnati and Dayton, as well as the Great Miami and Ohio rivers. Both cities offer many recreational and cultural activities. Cincinnati, the “City with Seven Hills,” offers dramatic settings with impressive panoramic views that are ideal for a traditional or contemporary timber home. Explore smaller cities and historic villages like Oxford, Urbana, Batavia and Georgetown.
