Property Description

Nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac in the desirable Upper Highlands, this striking mid-century modern home transcends time, offering discerning buyers a once-in-a-generation opportunity to restore and recreate a one-of-a-kind residence. Thoughtfully designed and meticulously built atop a picturesque 3/4 acre lot, this single-owner home is guaranteed to inspire awe from any mid-century aficionado; from soaring angled rooflines to draw the eye upward to contemporary floor-to-ceiling windows to brighten the home with natural light and treed views, this home offers a lasting first impression. With seamless indoor-to-outdoor transitions and a palette anchored in warm, earthy tones, the first floor plays with gracious living spaces and contrasting sharp lines, creating inviting yet visually interesting places to gather with friends and family. From the spacious formal living room with statement brick fireplace and bench seating to the sunken great room with vaulted wood panel ceiling and adjoining entertaining terrace, guests will immediately find themselves at home. The first floor continues with a bright windowed dining room and adjoining eat-in kitchen with stunning backyard views, offering easy access to the home's oversize deck and rolling lawn. A private study with convenient built-in bookshelves, nearby powder room, and attached 2-car garage complete the floor. Accessible by two stairwells, the second floor was intentionally designed to accommodate the needs of a growing family, with a thoughtful floor plan elegantly separating the owner's primary bedroom suite from the floor's four additional guest bedrooms and two additional full baths. Perfectly preserving the character of the era, the second floor showcases built-in planters, open-air hallways, sloped two-story ceilings, and clerestory windows among the spacious bedrooms and scenic views. A floating stairwell guides guests to the home's walkout lower level, featuring an oversized laundry room, sunken family room with fireplace, craft/hobby room with additional storage, half bath, and bonus storage closets. The home's exterior is as impressive as its interior with stunning outdoor entertaining areas, rolling backyard, and towering mature trees, offering owners a private and parklike retreat in the heart of the city. With convenient access to the Highlands' countless restaurants, businesses, and parks, along with local high schools, universities, and the Louisville Zoo, this iconic architectural home is not to be missed!
