Property details
About 117 W Maxwell St
Currently used as Joe Bologna's office, this property was remodeled to the studs back 25 years ago and has been well maintained since. Some alterations/doors would probably need to be added to return the house into a residential use, or slight modification could be done to make for a ''live where you work'' type of setup. House cannot be used as a longterm rental, only Airbnb or 'live where you work' situation. Covered front porch, courtyard setting at rear/side yard, plus kitchenette & full bath. Awesome location with convenience to UK, Downtown, local restaurants & bars, as well as the Bourbon District & Rupp Arena. Old character flair with high ceilings, hardwood flooring, built-in bookshelves as well as multiple fireplaces. Updates to plumbing, electric, roofing & structure at remodel. Own a piece of Lexington's history. No parking on property. Side courtyard could be spot for motorcycle or scooter parking. This property is offered as both a commercial listing and residential listing.
