Easthill Ave, Evanston

Easthill Avenue sits on the border of Evanston and Hyde Park. It is a nice residential street that is accessed off of Madison Road. Easthill runs on both sides of Madison and is located right near a Metro stop. The portion of Easthill that runs on the east side of Madison is a dead end, but the longer section on the west side of Madison, while ending in a dead end, also has Pogue Avenue running off of it about halfway down. Pogue Avenue provides a less traveled access to other portions of Evanston, including the O'Bryonville business district. There are sidewalks on both sides of the tree lined street.

The houses on Easthill are large, single-family homes. The homes are very nice with lots of green space and trees, trees, trees. There are a couple of apartment buildings (or maybe condos...or both) on the corners of Easthill and Madison (the addresses are probably Madison Road, but access is located on Easthill.) The portion of Easthill that is east of Madison Road abuts the property of the Cincinnati Country Club. The portion of Easthill that is to the west of Madison abuts the property of the Bettman Natural Resources Center, operated by the Cincinnati Park Board; the nature preserve contains several acres of woodland. Properties on Easthill range from around $400K - $1 million range. The houses all have good sized driveways and large (if not multi-car) garages; the houses vary in construction style making for a lovely neighborhood street without that cookie-cutter look (it helps that the homes are older).

Easthill is conveniently located to highway access and within close proximity to both the University of Cincinnati and Xavier University. It is close to all the shopping and dining available in Hyde Park, Oakley, and Norwood and is a brief drive to Downtown Cincinnati. If you can afford a house on Easthill Avenue, I recommend it.
