Property Description
ONE OF A KIND...amazing space in an incredible block of S 3rd St in Old Louisville. Come see industrial loft living in an historic property-this is truly the best of both worlds. Our owners live in a completely renovated rear unit with 3 BRs and 2 full BAs. Soaring barrel ceiling w/the original mahogany trusses remain as a reminder of this home's original use as a church. Exposed ductwork and steel mullioned windows complete the industrial feel. Spacious Chef's gourmet kitchen offers incredible work space complete with black high gloss cabinetry, composite LG Hi-Macs countertops, GE Monogram 6-burner cooktop (operated on propane) and a vintage 1954 Custom Imperial Stove! This is an entertainment haven with a spectacular open feel. This home was thoughtfully renovated and specifically designed as one of the few "age-in-place" spaces in the neighborhood. A full ramp in the rear leads to a 2-car tandem attached garage. A second 1-car garage is currently being used as an artist studio by our current owners. In addition to the expansive garage space, there are 4 more parking spaces in the front of the building offering rare off-street pkg for guests (or clients if a "live-work" scenario is created). The laundry room is conveniently located off the 1st floor along with the Primary Bedroom Suite as well as both bathrooms having walk-in showers. To further the original renovation, our owners have made MORE recent improvements including 2 new mini-splits for heat/air in the PBR & 3rd BR, new LVP flooring, installed by Korfhage in the LR/DR in 2024, new shingled roof in 2021 & new rubber roof compound installed on half of the rear roof in 2024. This special property has 3 enjoyable outdoor spaces for entertaining & gardening. The front North courtyard has new concrete poured in 2023 and a new security gate permitted by Landmarks & installed in 2024. The brick side courtyard opens off the main living space and features a 6 ft privacy wall. In the rear, you'll find a refreshing 10x16 above ground plunge pool with a new saltwater filtering system enclosed by a 7 ft security fence - just what is needed after a long day at the office! The front half of the building is a blank canvas - an empty space of 1685 square feet to do with as you wish...it's waiting for your personal touch and can accommodate your needs & dreams. Space has been used, in recent years, as antique storage and a space for private parties & art openings. It has it's own electric meter. Of course, any agenda for this space must be approved by the Board of Zoning Approval; current zoning is TNZD - Transitional Neighborhood. Our current owners have architectural plans for 3 addit aptmt units designed by Studio Mayo that are avail for purchase. Let your imagination run wild - this could be the PERFECT SPACE for you!
