Monthly Estimate* How much can I afford?

Location, Location, Location! This gem, situated on a large lot in the heart of St. Matthews, has been owned by the same family for 55 years and is ready to be passed down to a new owner. This quaint 2 bedroom, 1 bath home offers a finished basement, one-car garage and a carport. Don't let the square feet fool you - there is plenty of living space between the living room, basement and a cozy den that's perfectly suited for a TV room, office or play room. Recent updates include new light fixtures on the first level, newer HVAC, roof, electrical panel and rebuilt chimney. Located across the street from the St Matthews Library and police station, and just minutes from everything St Matthews has to offer, the location can't be beat. Imagine nights out on Shelbyville Rd, Saturday mornings at the St Matthews Farmers Market, a quick trip to your favorite workout studio or park and strolling across the street to the library to find your next book - the convenience and accessibility is truly unmatched. This house would make the perfect starter home or down-sizer and is move-in-ready with the opportunity to make it your own!
