About This Home

The Historic Madeira House - A Covington Landmark with Endless Potential! A rare opportunity to own a piece of Covington history and adapt it for the city's vibrant future. The Madeira House, built in 1853, is one of Covington's most distinguished historic properties--now available with an adjacent 12-car parking lot at 525 Sanford Street. Perfectly positioned on tree-lined Greenup Street, surrounded by grand historic homes and just steps from the city's vibrant riverfront, restaurants, and entertainment. This stately three-story brick mansion offers approximately 5,000 square feet of space and has served as professional offices for decades. While it requires updating, the property retains incredible architectural character and flexibility--ideal for continued office use, conversion to residential units, or transformation into a single-family showpiece. The connected parking lot at the rear provides a rare amenity for any downtown property. A Covington landmark ready to be restored, re-imagined, and brought into the City's next exciting chapter!
