2 Home SOLD in Aprili 2009 in Fountains at McLean

In April of 2009 there were 2 homes sold in the Fountains at McLean. Both were "1st floor" homes in mid-rise buildings. The reason I used quotes around the "1st floor" is because depending what side of the building you're on you may be on the ground (1st floor) or you may be up 3 levels above the ground. This is because of the grading of the land around the buildings.
These properties also shared similarities in that they were both 1 bedrooms, and they both came with 1 garage parking. That's where the similarities end though. The property condition was very different.
The two properties sold were
- 1524 Lincoln Way #109 = $229,000 + $8,000 seller subsidy to buyer [VIRTUAL TOUR]
--> on the market 24 Days
- 1504 Lincoln Way #102 = $190,000 + $0 seller subdiy to buyer
--> on the market 139 Days
--> Bank Owned

In April 2008, the same month last year, there were also 2 properties SOLD.

Right now there are 2 properties available to buy in the Fountains at McLean. Both are 2 bedrooms, ranging from $306,800 to $314,900.
