Welcome to this exceptional two-story estate situated on 1.7 private acres in one of Louisville's most sought-after locations. This remarkable home seamlessly blends timeless historic character with thoughtfully designed modern updates. From elegant entertaining spaces to luxurious everyday living, every detail has been carefully curated while preserving the home's original charm and architectural elegance. A welcoming covered front porch sets the stage for the home's impressive interior. Inside, the grand foyer showcases the stunning front staircase and opens to a formal sitting room, creating an elegant first impression. The fully remodeled kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring an oversized center island with island seating, a six-burner gas cooktop, double dishwashers, an Advantium oven, abundant custom cabinetry, and a dedicated pantry cabinet with convenient roll-out drawers. Just beyond the kitchen, a well-appointed wet bar offers additional cabinetry, an ice maker, beverage refrigerator, wine storage, and generous prep space for hosting. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the expansive living room, where a striking double-sided gas fireplace serves as the focal point. Custom built-in shelving and cabinetry add both character and functionality, while an abundance of windows fills the space with natural light. Adjacent to the family room, an inviting sitting area features a dedicated bourbon bar, creating a sophisticated setting for entertaining and relaxed gatherings. Just off the kitchen and bourbon bar area, a quaint patio provides an inviting setting for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or simply enjoying the property's beautiful tulip tree. The formal dining room is generously sized to accommodate large gatherings and holiday celebrations and is enhanced by beautiful built-in cabinetry. A full bathroom is conveniently located on the main level. Along the rear of the home, the sunroom is lined with walls of windows overlooking the in-ground pool and expansive deck, filling the home with natural light while offering picturesque views of the backyard. A secondary staircase provides convenient access to the second level. Completing the main level is a spacious mudroom and laundry room located just off the attached garage. Designed with everyday functionality in mind, this space features extensive cabinetry, shelving, a laundry area, and a convenient powder room. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite serves as a private retreat featuring a beautifully renovated ensuite bathroom with heated floors, a dual-sink vanity, separate makeup vanity, and a spacious walk-in closet with custom built-in organization. Three additional bedrooms complete the second level, including a secondary primary suite with its own private ensuite bathroom. One of the bedrooms offers direct access to a covered second-story porch and also serves as an ideal home office. A versatile loft area provides additional flex space for a reading nook, study area, or sitting room. The finished lower level expands the home's living space with a large open recreation and family room offering endless possibilities for entertaining, movie nights, a game room, fitness area, or additional lounge space. Multiple gathering areas provide flexibility to accommodate a variety of lifestyles, while the unfinished storage room offers abundant, easily accessible space for seasonal items, hobbies, and organization. The outdoor living spaces are equally impressive, creating a private retreat with multiple areas for entertaining, recreation, and relaxation. Just beyond the sunroom, the heated in-ground pool serves as the centerpiece of the backyard and is complemented by a newer pool cover, pump, and sand filter system. An expansive deck provides ample space for outdoor dining and gatherings, while the potting shed, complete with plumbing and electricity, offers additional functionality and storage. The impressive grounds provide abundant space for outdoor recreation and enjoyment, complete with a charming treehouse behind the property. Tucked away on the opposite side of the property, the gazebo offers an opportunity to refresh an additional outdoor gathering space. An attached two-car garage completes the property with convenient everyday access and additional storage. Perched above Newburg Road on approximately 1.7 acres, the home feels like a secluded retreat while remaining just minutes from Cherokee Park, Seneca Park, Joe Creason Park, the Louisville Zoo, the shops and restaurants along Bardstown Road, downtown Louisville, and major expressways. Opportunities to own an estate of this caliber with this much land in such a central Louisville location are exceptionally rare.
