A 102-acre property with woods, tillable ground and frontage on Massies Creek at 2031 Stevenson Rd in Xenia sold for $2.05 million, the highest-priced home sale reported in the Dayton, Ohio metro area for the week ending August 16, 2026.
The week’s five highest-priced reported sales combined for $6.77 million and reach across Xenia, Brookville, the Soraya Farms community in Dayton and Oakwood, with the two top closings both in Xenia.
Acreage runs through much of the list: alongside the Massies Creek tract are a one-owner custom home on more than 20 acres with a four-stall barn, also in Xenia, and a 91.956-acre farm north of Interstate 70 in Brookville. A ranch-style home in Soraya Farms and an Italianate-Victorian house in Oakwood with a core traced to 1861 fill out the week.

No. 5 — $910,000 · 415 Kramer Rd, Oakwood, Ohio
415 Kramer Rd is an Italianate-Victorian foursquare in Oakwood, built for the German immigrant William Kramer on a little over half an acre where Kramer’s Pleasure Gardens, a vineyard, orchard and flower garden, once drew visitors.

County records date the house to 1913, while listing materials trace its core to 1861 and the main structure to about 1890, a 1910-era update adding the neo-classical veranda of Doric columns under a hip roof. Generously proportioned rooms hold fireplaces and original maple floors on the upper story, later owners added prairie plaster detailing inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright, and a backyard fountain remains the last visible trace of Kramer’s gardens.
