REALTOR® in Union Township (Clermont County)

Union Township was established in 1811 and has no incorporated village at its center — instead it holds three census-designated places, Mount Carmel, Summerside, and Withamsville, plus the unincorporated area of Glen Este. There isn’t one “downtown” to orient around, so the character of a home often depends more on which pocket of the township you’re in than on the township name itself.

The historic Pfarr Log House and the old Nine Mile Cemetery are reminders this land was settled well before the subdivisions arrived. Ela walks buyers through those differences street by street.

Union Township covers roughly 29 square miles in western Clermont County, bordered by Miami Township to the north and Hamilton County to the west — close enough to Cincinnati for an easy commute, spread out enough for varied lot sizes. Interstate 275 crosses the township, with Routes 32 and 125 running east-west, so most addresses sit within a short drive of a highway on-ramp.

The township is home to Total Quality Logistics, a major regional employer, and a Clermont County Public Library branch. Housing ranges from mid-century ranch homes near the older hamlets to newer construction closer to Glen Este.

The Eastgate area, anchored around the roundabout at Eastgate Boulevard and Ferguson Drive, has been undergoing a deliberate revitalization — including The Cove, a mixed-use commercial center, and the Ivy Pointe Commerce Park. For buyers who want retail, dining, and services within a short drive of home, Eastgate is the township’s commercial hub, and its ongoing redevelopment is worth understanding before you commit to a nearby street.

Because Union Township spans several distinct pockets, Ela starts by narrowing down which part actually fits — Mount Carmel’s established streets, Withamsville’s mix of older and newer homes, or newer construction nearer Glen Este. Relocating families often need that orientation first, since “Union Township” on paper doesn’t say much about a specific street.

Students in the township are served by the West Clermont Local School District, covering a wide area on the east side of the I-275 loop.

Selling here means telling the story of your specific pocket of the township — proximity to Eastgate’s shops and restaurants, access to I-275 or Route 32, or a quieter street near one of the township’s older hamlets. Ela, an SRS-designated agent with an MBA in Finance and Marketing from the University of Cincinnati, positions each listing around what actually distinguishes it, rather than relying on the township name alone.
