Property Description

Step into timeless elegance with this beautifully restored, turn-of-the-century historic home, where original charm meets modern luxury. Positioned along Louisville's early Parkway system, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted in the 1890s, this home offers both rich history and contemporary comfort. It is just a short ride or walk to Iroquois Park, its amphitheater, and golf course, and is conveniently located near the Watterson Expressway, the University of Louisville, and Churchill Downs. Within walking distance of charming coffee shops, cafés, a bookstore, a barbershop, and restaurants, this home provides the perfect balance of historic beauty and modern convenience. Homes of this nature do not become available often! Offering five bedrooms, four full bathrooms, and 4,500 sq. ft., this stunning property sits on over half an acre along the private carriage drive, providing a rare combination of privacy and accessibility. A large front porch welcomes you into the home, perfect for enjoying quiet mornings or socializing with neighbors. The home's original character has been carefully preserved, while key spaces such as the kitchen, bathrooms, and custom-built walk-in closet with laundry have been thoughtfully renovated to meet contemporary needs.

This home features 10.5-foot ceilings and large windows that allow abundant natural light, as well as original hardwood floors and pocket doors throughout. The first floor includes a spacious walk-in butler's pantry and a library. A large two-tier deck extends the living space outdoors, overlooking the serene, wide-open lot ideal for relaxing or entertaining. The spacious, unfinished 1,875 sq. ft. walk-out basement offers endless possibilities, along with an additional laundry hookup. A detached two-car garage provides ample parking and storage.

A true standout feature of this home is the expansive third-floor addition, boasting 1,500 sq. ft. with soaring 16-foot ceilings. This incredible space includes a fifth bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, kitchenette, dining area, entertainment space, room for workout equipment, and a dedicated office, making it perfect for guests, multigenerational living, or a luxurious private retreat.

The home sits on two lots, zoned R5, both of which are included in this sale. Combined, they total 0.66 acres and are almost fully fenced, with only a small open portion where the driveway crosses. There is an opportunity to split off the second lot for sale or build another home.
