About This Home
Welcome home to this Belknap neighborhood beauty making its debut on the market for the first time since it was built in 1925. Having originally been purchased by the Louisville Seminary when it was built, this home served as housing for their students and residents through 1971 and then was purchased directly from them by Hal Warheim from 1971 until 2018. Mr. Warheim created the ''Secret Park of the Highlands'' known as Warheim Park, located adjacent from this home-offering a wonderful community space for Highlands residents to enjoy. When purchased off market by its current owners in 2018, this home went through an extensive renovation from top to bottom with all new mechanicals, electric, plumbing, and a new roof in 2020. 54 new Anderson composite windows were installed to shed an abundance of natural light in every room of this home. A sprawling front porch features ornate garden beds, slate flooring, and beveled glass double front doors, offering great curb appeal on this idyllic street. The open concept kitchen has custom Amish-built walnut cabinetry, soapstone countertops, Kitchen-Aid appliances, custom shutters, and direct access to the screened-in porch-with panoramic views of your backyard oasis- making this room an entertaining delight! The large living room is cozy with a natural stone fireplace and sliding doors that open up to your front porch. The converted one car garage now houses the home's first floor office that has also been set up as a secondary den in the past. A playful half bathroom on the first-floor features hand painted wallpaper by local artist Matthew McDole. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has 3 closets and opens directly into the showstopping & spacious primary bathroom with a soaker tub, walk-in shower, and double vanity. Additional bedrooms/exercise room/laundry/ and another full bathroom round off the second floor. The third floor of this home houses another bedroom with multiple nooks, a lounge area, a quarter bathroom, and built-in dressers and closets. This space could easily be partitioned if someone wanted to, however its open concept has offered a wonderful and playful layout for their family.
The finished basement has a large family room, hangout area, a full bathroom with a subway tiled shower, and a walk-in cedar sauna and relaxation area. This basement has provided a wonderful refuge from busy lifestyles and bonus entertaining rooms. The unfinished portion of the basement houses several storage rooms, tool benches, additional laundry hookups, and walk-out access to the outdoors. The magical backyard has creek stone garden beds along the perimeter with an enchanting weeping willow hovering above your tiered patio spaces, covered fireplace, screened-in porch, and the flat green space- all with complete and total privacy from the well-maintained mature bamboo plantings. This Highlands home is move-in ready and walkable to Lakeside Swim Club, The Douglass Loop, the Farmers Market, and many local restaurants and businesses. Showings start Friday June 27th at 10:00am. This home won't last long, schedule your private showing today!
