The hardwood floors with bordered inlays, tall ceilings, leaded and stained-glass windows, original mill work & modern conveniences make this a must see. Truly a one-of-a-kind opportunity... This property was extremely in need of love in 2009 when the sellers purchased it and saw the opportunity to make it into a spectacular home. Enter the grand foyer from the full ''southern'' front porch (great for porch parties). The elegant entry foyer greets your guests and to the left is the main parlor with custom built columns and a working vintage gas fireplace. Directly behind the grand side to side staircase from the foyer you will find the incredibly appointed formal dining room w/mirrored accent wall, an incredible chandelier & another working gas fireplace for special dining experiences. The fully equipped kitchen with island, black marble countertops & exposed brick accent wall is sure to please. The kitchen opens out to the temperature-controlled sunroom which leads to the backyard paradise. From the first floor, use the grand main staircase with a stunning stained-glass (back-lit) window and a fabulous crystal chandelier or the original rear staircase to the spacious 2nd floor sitting area with lit built-ins. The 2nd floor offers a gorgeous primary bedroom w/working gas fireplace, an incredible full bath with double vanities, a copper soaking tub, custom shower, heated floors, a glass enclosed water closet & an extensive walk-in closet. On this floor you will also find 2 additional bedrooms (1 currently used as home office). On up to the 3rd floor, you will find a grand guest suite (separate H2O heater), with a large bedroom with sitting area, an open living room across the front of the home, a full kitchen, laundry closet and full bath w/walk-in shower. On we go to the fabulous finished lower lever (which is a huge plus in Old Louisville) offering stained concrete flooring, a huge living room opening to a custom wet bar with wine refrigerator, double door refrigerator and bar sink, a full bath with ceramic floors, pedestal sink, walk-in shower along with what is now used as a 2nd dining room which could be could easily be converted into a theater room, a music/ recoding room or potential bedroom with proper egress added.
