215 Garrard Street – $800,000
Commonly referred to as “The Shinkle House”, this is one of the most historically significant homes in Northern Kentucky and is located just two blocks from the Ohio River in the Licking-River Historic District. A magnificent example of Greco-Italianate architecture, it was built in 1854 for Amos Shinkle, one of the most prominent figures in the early development in Kentucky and Ohio. The home later became a highly rated Bed and Breakfast. Original fresco murals remain and are in beautiful condition – as is the grand staircase, spectacular decorative moldings, interior cornices and stunning chandeliers. Exquisite cast iron filigree trim on the house front and front fence adds just the right note of southern charm. Also features a lovely garden and carriage house with 4 bedrooms and 4 baths.

Landmark West Side Church Seeks New Owner
CPA is seeking development proposals for Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church in the West Side neighborhood of Sedamsville. This outstanding German Gothic Revival church, built in 1888, features corbelled brickwork, a rose window and a soaring 170’ spire visible. Located on a hillside overlooking River Road, the church is visible from the Ohio River and the Kentucky shore.
Vacant since 1989, the church is in deteriorated condition but structurally sound. It needs a new owner who can creatively renovate it for a new use that respects the building and the neighborhood.
Our Lady of Perpetual Help was built in 1888. It was designed by Adolph Druiding, who also designed St. Lawrence in Price Hill and the Sisters of Charity Motherhouse in Delhi. The neighborhood is being nominated to the National Register of Historic Places so tax credits may be available for rehabilitation. Contact CPA at 513-721-4506 for details about this unique redevelopment opportunity.
