Property Description
Attention investors! Currently zoned C1 and operating as a successful Airbnb generating approximately $30-$40K annually. Built in 1900, this home blends historic charm with thoughtful modern updates. A covered front porch welcomes you into the living room featuring an original fireplace and hardwood floors that run throughout much of the home. The spacious eat-in kitchen combines character with modern convenience, highlighted by a second original fireplace, shaker-style cabinetry, granite countertops, classic subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, a center island with breakfast bar, and a bright dining area. Laundry is conveniently located just off the kitchen. The primary bedroom features the home's third original fireplace and a private en-suite bath. A second bedroom and an additional updated full bath complete the interior. Outside, a covered rear porch overlooks the fully fenced backyard, with private rear access to the one-car garage for off-street parking. Ideally located in the heart of Louisville near the University of Louisville, Germantown, NuLu, and many local restaurants, shops, and attractions.
