Adorable Newly Renovated House in Fountain Ave. Area! Only $105K!

The Midtown Alliance of Neighbors has completed a total rehabilitation of a Fountain Avenue area property and is offering it for sale. It can be viewed at any time by calling 556.0826.

The home at 500 North 16th street sits on a small, easy-to-maintain corner lot.  The 1,300 square foot bungalow has a spacious living room and dining room, 2 bedrooms, and 1 1/2 baths.  The kitchen and baths have been completely renovated and the original hardwood floors have been refinished.  The list of all-new features is long: plumbing, heat and air, electrical, roof and gutters, storm windows, and insulation.  The front porch is great for sitting—whether it’s a hot summer night or cool fall day. 

The $105,000 price tag is comparable to the sales price of other recently-renovated homes in this charming neighborhood.  In addition, at closing the buyer will receive a $10,000 incentive check from the City to use any way they want—downpayment, pay down the loan, new furniture, whatever.

The non-profit Midtown Alliance of Neighbors helps low-income homeowners around Paducah and works especially in the Fountain Avenue neighborhood, helping both homeowners and the City with revitalization efforts.  Board member Don McConoughey says, “It’s really exciting to sit on my porch and see all the work that’s being done here.  It’s very rewarding to take a vacant, overgrown house and turn it into a home for someone.”
