About this home
Welcome to timeless elegance in the heart of the Bayard Park, listed on the National Registry of Historic Neighborhoods. This stunning 2-story manor-style home, built in 1929, seamlessly blends classic architecture with thoughtful modern updates—offering the best of both worlds. With 3 spacious bedrooms and 1.5 baths, this residence is a captivating nod to the past, reimagined for today’s lifestyle. From the moment you arrive, the original arched front door—framed in stately Bedford stone—sets a tone of graceful sophistication. Step inside to a foyer original arched doorways, a charming coat closet, and rich new wainscoting that flows into the entry hall and stairwell, beautifully complementing the original hardwood floors. To the left, the inviting family room features a striking fireplace with a gas insert, scone lighting, and generous space for relaxing or entertaining. Just off this space is an all-seasons room—heated and cooled for year-round enjoyment—perfect for savoring your morning coffee, unwinding with a book, or simply soaking in natural light. On the right, the formal dining room is a showpiece of style, complete with updated lighting and fresh wainscoting that adds warmth and refinement. The kitchen maintains its vintage charm with original cabinetry and tile, a farmhouse sink, and butcher block countertops—blending heritage with function. The adjacent breakfast nook boasts an original built-in china hutch and vintage tilework that’s as rare as it is beautiful. A tucked-away half bath in the back hall showcases original tiled walls and ceilings, now enhanced with a new tile floor and toilet. The hall also provides access to the full, unfinished basement—offering laundry space, exceptional storage, and room to grow. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, all featuring walk-in closets and original hardwood floors (to be professionally refinished by closing). The full bath is a true vintage gem, with original tile, fixtures, and a large built-in linen cabinet. Additional highlights include a newer roof (2018), brand new zoned HVAC system (2025), and a rare dual-access driveway: private off Kentucky Ave and shared off Bellemeade. The detached 2-car garage—part of a thoughtfully divided quad garage shared by four homeowners—private and perfect for storage or parking. $6500 in repairs to be completed. This historic beauty is more than a home—it’s a conversation piece. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of Evansville history.
