Home Details for 729 E Breckinridge St

Historic character, thoughtful updates, and an incredible garden setting come together in this lovingly maintained 1,532 sq. ft., 2-bedroom, 2-bath brick camelback. Fully renovated in 2017, the home retains so much of what makes an older Louisville home special—soaring ceilings, tall windows, exposed brick, original heart pine floors, deep window sills, and beautiful natural light—while offering the comfort and functionality of a modern renovation. South-facing and filled with light throughout the day, this home is truly a plant lover's dream. The kitchen pairs exposed brick with generous cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a large island that creates an inviting centerpiece for cooking, gathering, and entertaining. The first-floor primary bedroom features an ensuite bath. Laundry is conveniently located just off the rear mudroom. Upstairs, a private second bedroom offers great separation and flexibility for guests, a home office, or additional living space. Outside, the backyard is something special. Established landscaping, raised garden beds, and a large deck create a lush, almost fairytale-like setting with plenty of room for outdoor dining, entertaining, gardening, or simply having a drink at the end of the day. Two off-street parking spaces with alley access add an increasingly hard-to-find convenience. Major updates include a full renovation in 2017, including the kitchen, bathrooms, HVAC, roof, and drywall; a new rear deck in 2021; and replacement of the two large front windows in 2025. Enjoy easy access to both Smoketown and Shelby Park favorites, with Trellis Brewing, Logan Street Market, Perso, FOKO, Canary Club, and more just a walk away.
