Convenient living in northern Kentucky
Home to the late John James Audubon, the renowned 19th-century wildlife artist, Henderson North End is a community featuring expansive lots, a thriving outdoor scene and easy access to the everyday essentials. “The state park is named after him and displays many of his bird drawings,” says Jamie Young, Realtor with ERA First Advantage, and is also home to the John James Audubon State Park, which boasts 649 acres of forested marshland and lakeside recreation. In addition to this vast natural landscape, the neighborhood is also known for its three commercial hubs and welcoming vibes. “Most residents here are friendly and stay involved in activities throughout the area,” adds Young. Families walk their kids to and from Bend Gate Elementary, and neighbors head out for serene strolls along downtown's RiverWalk to take in scenic views of the Ohio River. Despite the community being primarily comprised of renters, Henderson North End feels like any other suburb, just 2 miles from downtown Henderson.

Brick-facade ramblers and riverfront traditionals
The real estate market in Henderson North End is competitive for its larger lot sizes and proximity to urban amenities. “It’s a popular neighborhood with new construction moving in,” says Young, who has been selling in the area for over seven years. “We’re experiencing low inventory and houses tend to go quickly, with an average time on the market of ten days.” The area is primarily occupied by renters, but permanent residences are also available. Most homes were constructed in the late 1900s, resulting in designs ranging from brick ramblers to Cape Cods and split-levels. While newly constructed two-story Traditional styles are available on the east side. With a median sales price of $220,000, homes here cost double the price of the average property in the Evansville Metro Area. For example, prices here can range from the low $100,000s for a two-bedroom Cape Cod fixer-upper on half-an-acre of land to upwards of $600,000 for a four-bedroom Traditional with waterfront views of the Ohio River. As is to be expected, properties with more acreage or waterfront views are subject to higher price points. Homes throughout Henderson North End are often fronted by mid-sized lawns and equipped with paved driveways leading to attached multi-car garages. This community also features a variety of apartment options.
