Property Description
From the street, stone steps lead to a welcoming covered front porch framed by distinctive Tudor-arched columns. Just beyond, an open stone terrace with custom railings by Pohl Iron Works provides a wonderful place to relax and take in the views of Tyler Park. The front door, framed by an original art-glass transom and sidelights, offers a beautiful introduction to the craftsmanship found throughout the home. Ornate plaster ceiling medallions, intricate garland and dentil crown moldings, inlaid hardwood floors, and original paneled pocket doors bring character to the main living spaces. Two decorative fireplaces retain their original mantels and cast-iron inserts, while oversized windows fill the main level with natural light.
The formal dining room, with its impressive coffered ceiling, offers an inviting setting for everything from casual dinners to holiday gatherings. Connecting the dining room to the kitchen is the original butler's pantry, a wonderful piece of the home's history that remains as functional as it is charming. Glass-front upper cabinets rest on hand-turned spindles above a deep wood countertop, complete with a clever hinged lift-top designed to accommodate a concealed trash bin. Whether used as a serving station, coffee bar, or simply for additional storage, this space is both practical and full of character.
Just beyond, the completely renovated kitchen is one of the home's most impressive transformations. Designed with careful attention to both function and detail, the space features brand-new custom white inset cabinetry extending to the ceiling, honed granite countertops, marble finishes, and beautiful brass hardware sourced from Willis Klein. Premium appliances include an 84-inch-tall GE Monogram built-in refrigerator, GE Monogram dishwasher, and KitchenAid dual-fuel range with gas burners, an electric oven, and downdraft ventilation. Under-cabinet lighting, generous storage, a separate pantry, and timeless black-and-white hexagonal mosaic flooring complete the space. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered to create a kitchen that feels both luxurious and entirely at home within this historic property. A spacious den and convenient half bath featuring a hammered-brass sink imported from Italy complete the main level.
The original oak staircase leads to the second floor, where a triple Prairie-style stained-glass window creates one of the home's most memorable architectural features. Carefully repaired and reconditioned as part of the renovation, the original stained glass is a beautiful reminder of the craftsmanship found throughout the home. The primary suite offers a peaceful retreat, featuring refinished heart pine floors, a decorative fireplace with green glazed tile, and a generous walk-in closet tucked behind French doors. The completely renovated primary bath has a spa-like feel, with a freestanding soaking tub, oversized marble shower with rainfall showerhead, double vanity, and private water closet.
An additional spacious bedroom on this level features another distinctive decorative fireplace, complete with a marbleized mantel, turned columns, mirror accents, and a green tile hearth. An updated full bath includes a subway-tiled tub and shower with a glass panel and rainfall showerhead, along with a separate water closet. A dedicated laundry room and an additional half bath in the hallway add everyday convenience.
Continue up the original rear staircase to the finished third floor, where dormer windows, recessed lighting, and independent temperature control make the space comfortable and versatile. With two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a separate living area, this level offers plenty of flexibility for guests, a playroom, or a more private space to spread out. Additional attic storage is another welcome bonus.
The outdoor spaces are equally inviting and have been thoughtfully enhanced as part of the renovation. A new limestone patio provides a beautiful setting for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying a quiet evening at home. Updated landscaping and a newly installed privacy fence create a fully enclosed backyard, while both the front and rear porches received new roofing in 2026. At the rear of the property, a charming two-story carriage house offers tandem parking for two vehicles, a new garage door, and an additional 480 square feet of unfinished space. With electrical wiring in place and the potential for future water service, the upper level presents an exciting opportunity to create a home office, art studio, or other flexible space tailored to the next owner's needs.
With Tyler Park just across the street and the restaurants, shops, and neighborhood favorites of Bardstown Road only moments away, the location is every bit as special as the home itself. More than a century after it was built, this beautiful foursquare is ready for its next chapter, offering a rare opportunity to enjoy the character and craftsmanship of historic Louisville with the comforts of today.
