Muhammad Ali's childhood home, now a museum, for sale in Kentucky for $1.5M

Celebrity Boxing CEO Damon Feldman shares how he came up with the idea of celebrity boxing and where a potential boxing match between two NASCAR rivals stands.

The pink house where Muhammad Ali grew up dreaming of boxing fame — and where hundreds of fans gathered for an emotional send-off as his funeral procession passed by decades later — is up for sale.

The two-bedroom, one-bathroom house in Louisville was converted into a museum that offered a glimpse into the formative years of the boxing champion and humanitarian known worldwide as The Greatest. The house went on the market Tuesday along with two neighboring homes — one was turned into a welcome center-gift shop and the other was meant to become a short-term rental.

The owners are asking $1.5 million for the three properties. Finding a buyer willing to maintain Ali's childhood home as a museum would be "the best possible result," co-owner George Bochetto said.

"This is a part of Americana," said Bochetto, a Philadelphia attorney and former Pennsylvania state boxing commissioner. "This is part of our history. And it needs to be treated and respected as such."

The museum opened for tours shortly before Ali's death in 2016. Bochetto and his business partner at the time renovated the frame house to how it looked when Ali — known then as Cassius Clay — lived there with his parents and younger brother.

"You walk into this house ... you’re going back to 1955, and you’re going to be in the middle of the Clay family home," Bochetto told The Associated Press during a 2016 interview.
