The townhouse-style apartment at 50 Maon Street has two bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, and a full basement. It’s located in historic downtown Hyannis in a convenient location that’s walkable to restaurants, shopping, waterfront and Cape Cod Hospital. Rent is $1,780 a month; utilities are not included.

Household income eligibility is based on 65% of the Area Median Income. Minimum household income is $53,344. Maximum gross income is $62,205 (one person), $71,110 (two people), $80,015 (three people) and $88,855 (four people).
