238 E Fourth StreetLexington, KY 40508
Downtown · Fayette County
Description
Restore, renovate, or reimagine: this 1908 home just blocks from downtown Lexington is a rare chance to own a piece of the city's history. The historic details are still intact original heart pine floors, ornate mantels, and a dramatic spiral staircase to a 400+ sq. ft. second-floor primary suite with a full bath and its own mini-split. Two more bedrooms are on the main level, one with built-in armoire closets that convey. The kitchen has stainless appliances and a gas range, with a stackable washer/dryer in a custom cabinet. Outside, mature trees shade a spacious backyard with a 12x12 electrically wired workshop/shed. The home needs some work, and it's priced with that in mind, making it ideal for a renovator, investor, or buyer ready to build sweat equity. The location is minutes from Transylvania University, the Limestone corridor, the Living Arts & Science Center, and downtown dining and shops. Sold as-is. Bring your vision.
