Description

A rare opportunity just minutes outside downtown Lexington in the well defined, historic enclave known as Mentelle Park. One of Lexington's most established and timeless neighborhoods. This classic two-story brick home offers a clean palette for your vision, blending original character with the chance to design and finish to your exact taste. With its symmetrical façade, inviting front porch, and architectural presence, the home reflects the enduring appeal that has defined Mentelle Park for generations. Importantly, the property is not on the historic register, providing flexibility for updates, renovations, and customization, an uncommon advantage in this setting. Inside and out, this is a home ready for transformation whether you're restoring its historic charm or creating something entirely your own. The property also features a second upstairs kitchen and entryway as well as a large garage, offering valuable space rarely found in homes of this era. Mentelle Park itself is rich in history, known for its early 20th-century development and tree-lined streets that continue to define one of Lexington's most sought-after residential pockets. Timeless, well-located, and full of potential this is an opportunity to cross a threshold and create something truly special.
