About this home
Tucked into the highly desirable Highlands neighborhood, this extraordinary residence masterfully blends historic character with refined, modern luxury—just moments from beloved local restaurants, parks, and vibrant city living. Originally built in 1928 and thoughtfully reimagined, this home has undergone a complete, top-to-bottom renovation, offering peace of mind with all-new HVAC, electrical, plumbing, windows, and more—while preserving the architectural soul that makes it truly one-of-a-kind. Restored original hardwood floors seamlessly meet newly installed hardwoods, creating a cohesive and timeless foundation throughout. The open-concept design invites effortless living and entertaining, anchored by a stunning, fully customized kitchen. Outfitted with premium KitchenAid appliances, a bespoke refrigerator, and sleek quartz countertops, the space is highlighted by an impressive 8-foot waterfall island. Architectural details shine with custom arched walls and doorways, perfectly echoed in the show-stopping arched range hood—creating a curated, designer aesthetic at every turn. The home continues to impress with a fully finished basement, offering incredible flexibility with an additional bedroom, full bath, spacious living area, wet bar, dedicated storage, and even a tornado shelter room with waterproof flooring—thoughtfully designed for both comfort and peace of mind. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a custom reading nook, a generous walk-in closet with a reclaimed 1890s door, and a luxurious ensuite bath complete with a geometric soaking tub, LED mirror, and custom walk-in shower. A second-floor office nook adds both charm and functionality, while two laundry areas provide everyday convenience. Throughout the home, original doors and trim have been meticulously restored, honoring its heritage while blending seamlessly with the modern upgrades. Outdoor living is equally exceptional. A three-car garage is complemented by a one-of-a-kind outdoor kitchen and patio, crafted from reclaimed wood and authentic 1950s whiskey boxes discovered in the home's basement—an unforgettable space for entertaining. Designed inside and out by Tara Graves of Bluegrass Build & Design, the property also features a completely updated exterior, new driveway, and fresh, professionally designed landscaping—delivering unmatched curb appeal. This is more than a home—it's a rare opportunity to own a fully restored, design-forward masterpiece in one of the city's most sought-after locations....
