About This Home
Tucked just one block from Central Park, this 3-story Italianate is one of those Old Louisville homes that truly stops you in your tracks. Set back off the street with a grand façade and full Southern front porch, it blends historic charm with updated spaces designed for modern living. Inside, you'll find over 5,000 square feet filled with original details—soaring ceilings, beautiful millwork, exposed brick, a grand staircase, and stunning hardwoods—balanced by a layout that just works for everyday living. The kitchen is the heart of the home, opening to a cozy sitting area and complemented by a butler's pantry, wine storage, and functional spaces you don't always find in homes of this era. The second-floor primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a flexible space perfect for a private office or TV room that opens to a deck overlooking the backyard. The spa-like primary bath includes gorgeous tile work, a soaking tub, walk-in shower, double vanity, and two walk-in closets. The second floor is completed by two additional bedrooms, a library and a hall bath with exposed brick. Upstairs, the third floor offers incredible flexibility with additional bedrooms and a large media/lounge space that could easily function as a second suite. Complete with a wet bar, mini fridge, kegerator, ice maker, and full bath, it's the perfect space for entertaining or hosting guests. Between the screened-in porch, rare 2-car garage, and the potential for a future carriage house, this home checks boxes you didn't even know you had—while still delivering that iconic Old Louisville character.
