Property Description

Welcome home to this beautifully renovated 4-bedroom, 2-bath craftsman bungalow, built in 1925 and thoughtfully updated in 2026, in the heart of Louisville's 40217! A charming brick-columned front porch—with swing—sets the tone the moment you arrive and original woodwork meets modern updates throughout. The main living space features a striking built-in bookshelf and linear electric fireplace, while the open kitchen impresses with a statement brass looking ring chandelier, a green vent hood, a butcher-block island, stainless steel appliances, and pendant lighting. A vintage-inspired full bath offers clawfoot-tub charm with mustard wainscoting, patterned cement tile, and brass fixtures. Upstairs, bright bedrooms showcase original character in two distinct ways: refinished pine flooring with striking original marmoleum — both under vaulted ceilings with individual mini-split units for efficient heating and cooling. Downstairs, a finished bedroom and full bath add flexible living space — ideal for guests, a private suite, or a home office — with the remainder of the basement offering unfinished space for storage or a workshop. With almost 1,600 square feet on the main level plus 260 square feet below, off-street parking, and 1925 character throughout, this home blends historic charm with modern comfort in one of Louisville's most walkable, close-in neighborhoods- don't miss seeing this GEM!
