Description
Investors take note!! A rare renovation opportunity in the heart of historic Old Louisville, just doors from the iconic Mag Bar and close to Saint James Court, Central Park and the renowned St. James Court Art Show. This turn-of-the-century two-story home is filled with architectural character, including soaring ceilings, spacious rooms, original woodwork, pocket doors, a grand staircase and a striking front window crowned by a stained-glass arch. The interior is currently a blank slate, ready to be thoughtfully restored and reimagined. A working bathroom is already in place, and the flexible layout offers the potential for three to four bedrooms and approximately two-and-a-half to three bathrooms. Recent improvements include a cellar/basement with new entry stairwell, poured concrete floors, and new brick paver walkways. Outside, a covered side deck overlooks a fully fenced backyard with rear-gate access and the potential for off-street parking from the alley. Digitally staged renderings are included to illustrate the possibilities for each room, along with a potential floor plan. Conveniently located near the University of Louisville and just minutes from NuLu, Whiskey Row, dining, entertainment and everything Old Louisville has to offer. A distinctive property with remarkable scale, historic details and tremendous renovation potential.
