A second bedroom with an ensuite bath and conveniently located laundry complete the second level. The third floor adds an exceptional flexible space ideal for a home office, den, guest retreat or additional entertaining area, complete with a wet bar and access to a rooftop deck showcasing views of the Lexington skyline. Two off-street parking spaces—a rare downtown find—add everyday convenience. Just blocks from Gratz Park, Transylvania University, downtown dining, entertainment, Rupp Arena and Lexington's central business district, this is a truly special opportunity to own a piece of Lexington history without sacrificing modern comfort. *The 3rd bedroom is set up more like a loft space but could fit a small bed.
