This beautiful 6 bedroom, 3.5 bath home perfectly balances modern luxuries with its historic original features.

The front bedroom envelopes you with warmth making calm and relaxing evenings certain. Stunning windows with exposed brick are found in the master suite (currently being utilized as a comfortable media room). The HUGE walk-in closet with washer/dryer inside, is attached to the en-suite. Imagine walking into the master bath with heated marble floors, a garden tub with historic fixtures, floating double sinks, and a walk-in shower with exposed-pipe double shower heads, all designed perfectly around the original nearly floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the stunning backyard.
On up to the 3rd floor, you'll find 4 massive bedrooms with fireplaces in every room, and 2 bedrooms have additional exposed brick, vaulted ceilings, and exposed beams. A well-appointed full bath and an additional washer/dryer round out the top floor. The stunning backyard, showcased on the Old Louisville Garden Tour, is perfect for outdoor entertaining, relaxing while reading a book, or around a warm fire, and is designed with historic brick patios and sidewalk lights leading to a huge 3 car garage. The 1676 sq ft basement has been waterproofed (with warranty) and includes a wine-tasting room. This home has zoned HVAC on all 3 floors. All 3 a/c compressors were replaced in 2019.
