Property details

About 1509 S 3rd St

Discover a rare multifamily investment opportunity in the heart of Old Louisville on the prestigious ''Millionaire's Row,'' just steps from the University of Louisville campus. This grand Victorian-era quadplex blends historic charm with solid rental income potential. A welcoming covered porch and ornate entry hall lead into four spacious units, two of which have been recently renovated. One unit stands out with 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, making it ideal for an owner-occupant seeking to offset living costs or for attracting premium rent. Tenants are responsible for all utilities, including water, helping to streamline operating expenses. A fenced rear yard offers privacy, while a 3-car garage accessible via the alley provides additional income potential or valuable off-street parking. The building is equipped with two furnaces and one shared water heater, with laundry facilities conveniently located in the basement for all residents. With easy-to-rent units and significant upside in the remaining two units that are either MTM or coming up for lease soon, this property presents an excellent opportunity for investors or owner-occupants alike to secure a piece of one of Louisville's most iconic neighborhoods.
