Property Description

Charming Downtown Lexington Home with Modern Updates and Historic Character. Welcome to 452 West Third Street, a beautifully maintained home nestled in the heart of Lexington's most vibrant and historic district. This property blends classic architectural charm with thoughtful modern updates, offering the perfect balance of comfort, style, and convenience. As indicated in the historic documents, this house is an interesting stylistic mixture: visualized as it first stood (without the roof & later porch/entrance) it has the form of an Italianate house with simplified Romanesque windows and trim. It is rare that a house acquires its roof after 20 years of occupancy, but that is, apparently, what this one did. History documents that are included in the listing are really fascinating. The home is located just minutes from Transylvania University, Jefferson Street dining, Rupp Arena, and the energy of downtown. This home places you right where Lexington lives, works, and plays.  Key Features Prime Downtown Location Walkable to restaurants, coffee shops, parks, and entertainment. Ideal for the person who wants to live an incredibly rich historic lifestyle. Historic Character-Italianate/Romesque Original architectural details, timeless curb appeal, and the charm that makes Lexington's older neighborhoods so beloved. Modern Comforts Updated systems, refreshed interiors, and a layout that supports both everyday living and entertaining. The home has over 3000 sq ft of livable space including a 3rd floor space w/full bathroom. 4 bedrooms /3 full baths, formal living room, formal dining room, loft space for home office, play area, den.
