This Italian Villa-Style Mansion in Indian Hill is a Jaw-Dropping $6.9 Million Masterpiece

As CityBeat's Digital Editor, I spend about an hour each week searching the web for captivating new listings across the Greater Cincinnati area that would make for interesting features on our site for our readers. (Who doesn't like flipping through real estate photos?) And finding this recently-listed gem, located in Cincinnati's swanky Indian Hill neighborhood, was like hitting the jackpot. The opulent $6.9 million Italian villa-style home (5775 Drake Road) is something out of an MTV Cribs episode. Spanning more than 15,000 square feet, the home's design is sort of an industrial-meets-modern style mixed with European countryside chic. The first floor features an open floor plan, accentuated by extraordinarily high ceilings and walls and walls of windows. The kitchen gives off a kind of steampunk vibe and overlooks a swing, centered in front of the fireplace between the dining space and additional kitchen storage. The first floor is also home to several living room spaces, a recreation room and a sunroom — with some spectacularly tiled floors. The home features 6 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms, an exercise/massage room and a theater. Outside, the home boasts a covered patio with an outdoor kitchen and pizza oven, plus a generously-sized pool and firepit, with a garden-like lounge space and a 6-car garage nestled on its over-3 acres of land.
