About this House

What's unique:Expansive roof topProximity to downtownMud room
The best of both worlds! A richly historic home, c. 1860 built for James Hawes in the Helentown neighborhood of Covington, that has been completely transformed. While whispers to its past remain, the interior of this home was taken down to the studs somewhere in the 1990's and fully remodeled. The first floor is completely open with access to the oversized, landscaped yard through a mud room. The second floor offers an Owner's suite with laundry and two additional bedrooms. An expansive roof top above the garage offers unlimited potential with rooftop views of the immediate area. The garage was added in the 1940's and can easily fit 3 cars or function as a studio. The parking apron offers additional parking for up to 4 cars that is unheard of for city living. This home is a blank canvass for you to make it your own and enjoy the convenience of Covington and the proximity to Downtown, Mainstrasse and all major interstate access points. Offering immediate occupancy.

    "Dogs are walked, both on sidewalks and alley ways. Done barking dogs in neighborhood and a few coyotes. "
  • Drew Woll
    "Close to almost anything in the Cincinnati area. If commute is a top priority this is the cheapest location with the shortest commute. I work 30 mins up north in Springdale which is a 25 mile drive. In 30 mins I could probably make it down to Williamstown, KY. South of MLK Street can be a bit unsafe just fyi."
