About This Home

Welcome to the iconic Waitman-Taylor home a historic gem nestled along Owensboro's prestigious Griffith Avenue. Originally constructed with timeless craftsmanship, this five-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath residence has been masterfully reimagined with over $500,000 in thoughtful renovations, blending classic Southern charm with modern luxury. Completely taken down to the studs and rebuilt with uncompromising attention to detail, every inch of this home speaks to its legacy while offering the comforts of new construction. Whisper-quiet interiors are achieved through advanced spray foam insulation and energy-efficient windows, a rarity in homes of this vintage. From the gleaming white quartz countertops to Phill's Custom Cabinetry in both the kitchen and entertainment spaces, every finish was selected for both beauty and function. The spa-worthy primary suite features marble-lined finishes that rival high-end retreats, while solid core doors with antique-style hardware nod to the home's storied past. The oversized 3-car garage (approx. 1,000 sq. ft.) includes 24' deep bays, smart openers, a smooth transition from the driveway to the garage with low riding luxury cars in mind, and room for storage or a workshop. Outside, the lush landscaping is kept pristine with a nine-zone irrigation system. Located on the scenic Dogwood-Azalea Trail, this property offers the rare opportunity to own a piece of Owensboro history modernized for today's lifestyle. Classic elegance. Contemporary excellence.
