About This Home
As of November 2024A rare opportunity to own an architecturally designed Gustav Stickley home, the only one in Fayette County! A jewel in the middle of the Bluegrass region, very close to the University of Kentucky, Downtown, and Chevy Chase, & facing beautiful tree-lined Transylvania Park, co-designed by the famed landscape architect who designed NYC's Central Park, Frederick Law Olmsted, Jr., featured in the 1914 edition of The Craftsman,as well as pictured in Craftsman Homes of America. Gleaming hardwoods throughout, with tall ceilings, large open rooms with wonderful Stickley details such as stained glass, built in cabinetry, hammered metal hardware, original unpainted woodwork and doors, and beautiful, handcrafted windows. Upstairs there are 3 light-filled and spacious bedrooms with 2 full bathrooms. There is also a very large unfinished 3rd floor. The lower level is an active Short-Term rental unit with its own exterior entrance, offering another large bedroom with full bath, as well as laundry and storage. The house is situated on a very private, large flat 1/4 of an acre with a brick patio and a detached garage. And finally, the very best of the best is the huge covered front porch...perfec. perfect for watching the world go by gazing upon the splendid Transylvania Park! The basement suite is currently being used as an Airbnb.
