River Road parcel offered only as part of a larger contiguous 9-parcel development package with incredible Ohio River and Cincinnati skyline views. This assemblage totals approximately 3.348 acres per available records and creates a rare opportunity for a builder, developer, or investor to pursue a larger redevelopment site in Covington. Utilities are available at the street. This parcel is approximately 1 acre per available records; however, seller believes a substantial portion of this parcel may be located in the Ohio River. Seller will not sell this parcel separately. Buyer to verify acreage, boundaries, river boundaries, floodplain status, zoning, utilities, access, buildability, and intended use. Full portfolio price is $275,000.
Botany Hills, located between Devou Park and the MainStrasse Village district, is a residential and hillside Covington neighborhood with winding streets and wooded edges. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Devou Park overlook area, where trailheads, picnic lawns, and skyline views set a calm, outdoors-forward tone. Housing reads as mid-century ranches and tidy brick homes on sloped lots, with pockets of mature tree canopy. The daily rhythm leans toward porch-lined blocks and short drives to Covington’s historic business districts. Nearby anchors like the Behringer-Crawford Museum, the Carnegie Visual and Performing Arts Center, and Braxton Brewing Company add cultural gravity beyond the tree line.
