Description

Nestled in the heart of Old Louisville, and sitting on an extra-large lot directly across the street from the Frederick Law Olmstead designed Central Park, this amazing Victorian is truly a unique offering. With 4 bedrooms, 3 and a half baths, this gem includes all the features you want in a circa 1894 home - hardwood floors, pocket doors, built-in bookcases, huge rooms with extra-tall ceilings and stunning mature gardens. From the sidewalk, you can tell this home is special. The original owner was a carpenter and took great pride in his creations, as evidenced by the unique millwork on the home's exterior. As you enter through the front door, you'll be welcomed into the comfortable foyer with pocket doors leading to the living room with a beautiful fireplace. Through another set of pocket doors is the dining room with another fireplace flanked by tall windows that offer a view to the outdoor living space in the brick courtyard at the side of the home. Off of the dining room is a large pantry wrapped in floor to ceiling built-ins. It had previously been used as a library/office. The kitchen is located at the rear of the home and has been recently updated with quartz countertops, mosaic tile backsplash, and a gas range. A half bath and laundry room are conveniently located off of this space. Two sets of double doors lead you to the rear gardens that are planted with kitchen herbs, native wildflowers, pawpaw trees, lily of the valley, as well as numerous varietals of hosta and day lilies. The brick path leads you past a subtle water feature and well-placed potting shed to the recently constructed 2 car garage with additional parking off the alley. Back inside and up the centrally located staircase to the second floor, is a generous primary bedroom with views of Central Park, decorative fireplace, and an en suite full bath. Two more bedrooms and a full bath with clawfoot soaking tub are also located on this floor. The third floor boasts yet another full bath, another large bedroom, as well as a flexible area that has recently been used as an arts and crafts studio and additional living room. There is plenty of space to spread out in this 3000+ square foot home on nearly a quarter acre. The Central Park location is ideal for enjoying the many amenities and events that are available year-round - just outside your front door.
