About this home
This stunning camelback shotgun home located on one of the historic brick streets in Clifton is one of those ''extraordinary'' homes that you simply don't see every day. This 125-year-old home offers abundant charm and character as well as a guest cottage in the back that is currently being used as a successful income-producing Airbnb. The fastidious owners have taken meticulous care of the home as well as made some exquisite and very functional improvements. You have to see this home for yourself to fully appreciate all of the attention to detail and fine finishes it offers. Beautiful hardwood floors run throughout the first floor of the home. The tall ceilings, textured venetian plaster, exquisite trim work, luxurious wallpapers, and custom light fixtures highlight the beauty of this home. The recessed lighting, newer windows, updated HVAC, stainless appliances, increased insulation, and improved ventilation add that modern touch that improves quality of life and energy efficiency.
As you enter the front living room through both the upgraded storm door and impressive transom-topped glass entry door, you notice the decorative brick fireplace with trim-lined mantle and a recessed bar area with plush double leather studded doors. The custom rug has been created specifically for the space and will remain as well as all custom window dressings. The beautiful dining room has a painted cloud scene on the ceiling as well as a lush wallpaper that give the room an incredibly warm and inviting feel. The den offers a space for retreating and relaxing at the end of a day. Beyond you find the kitchen with its commercial gas stove complete with stainless hood. The island is granite with a copper sink, and the grass cloth wallpaper adds the perfect texture to the walls. Off of the kitchen you find a full bathroom on the first floor with a copper wash basin sink and a beautiful glass shower. Upstairs you find the bedrooms, one of which has been partially turned into a grand freestanding tub to convert a previous half-bath into a spacious primary bathroom complete with tile floor and subway wall accent. There is a little over 400 sf of attic space that has been insulated with spray foam that can be used as storage or could be turned into a low ceiling recreation space. The finished basement with brand new carpet offers additional space and has two access points. One is through the floor in the den, and the other is part of the covered rear deck. The basement houses the mechanicals and could make for another sleeping quarter but is currently being used as an office.
Out the back you will find another one of the highlights of the home as you encounter a very private courtyard rich with plants, bamboo, mature trees, a birdbath, and ample places to sit and relax while pondering the meaningful aspects of life. This leads to the cottage in the back which you can find on Airbnb by Googling "Cute Carriage House off Frankfort Ave". This 175sf cottage grosses over $20,000 per year on average and has a loft bed, a futon, a kitchenette, and a full bathroom, and you could continue to use it as an Airbnb, or as a guest quarters, or a secondary escape or office. Rounding out the home is a small garage in the back as well as a green space that offers a raised bed for a garden.
When it comes to location, you could not ask for a better area as this home is just down the street from all of the coffee shops, pubs, restaurants, and shopping that Clifton is known for. It is just minutes from Cherokee Park (5min), Downtown Louisville (9min), the Mellwood Art Center (4min), Waterfront Park (7min), and the interstate (5 min). The airport is under 15 minutes away, the Mall is 11 minutes away, and all the restaurants on Bardstown Rd are just about 9 minutes away as well. Homes like this one do not come along very often.
