Entire Historic Duplex apartment in Old Louisville! This 110+ year old beauty has a private entrance. This property is freshly renovated. The apartment has two bedrooms, brand new Kitchen and a living room with Wifi, Netflix, and Hulu provided. They don't make houses like these anymore with quarter sawn oak flooring and 100 year old trim. 10 minutes from Downtown, Nulu, Bardstown Road, you can get anywhere quickly.

The space
This sunny and historic Victorian apartment has no shortage of natural light (7 foot tall windows throughout). It is a quick jaunt to pretty much anywhere in the city. It is located in Old Louisville, which is the second largest Victorian neighborhood in the country and has the best architecture in the City (in my opinion). I highly recommend you try as many restaurants as possible (trust me, we have some great food here). It's a comfy, lovely, and historical Duplex. (we actually live here, so you aren't dealing with some impersonal investment group)...

The 120 year old hardwood floors have been refinished recently for an absolutely beautiful look. The walls are freshly painted, and the relaxing reading nook is just built!

IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ:

We do not rent to anyone that lives in Louisville. You must live at least 50 miles outside of the city.

Please note that Old Louisville is in downtown Louisville and can be rough around the edges. We have lived here for 10 years and absolutely love our neighborhood. But, it is still a transitional neighborhood that can be intimidating.


★★★★★

RELAX AND CHILL

A roomy, light-filled living room with a comfy couch will definitely be welcome after a long day around town. We offer Netflix, HBO, Hulu and ESPN in the Living Room. Highspeed internet is obviously a must and we have you covered. Original hardwood floors throughout really show you the craftsmanship and exposed brick is always a nice touch. You also have a perfect reading nook for getting nice a comfy.

★★★★★

EAT, DRINK, BE MERRY

A small dining room table off the entry hallway is a great place to relax (not pictured) There is a Portal Bluetooth Speaker for any music needs.

★★★★★

COOK

A full kitchen can help you save money if you had a rough day at the track. We will have coffee and Tea available.

★★★★★

SLEEP

The bedrooms each have 2 huge windows for great natural light and a comfy Queen size mattress. Bedroom #1 has a comfy Queen Mattress with enough space to add the air mattress that is available. There is a closet to store any items in the first bedroom. Bedroom #2 has a day bed (twin) that can be converted into a king bed by using the additional trundle bed underneath (twin). It also has a dresser for clothing.

RULES

We do not rent to anyone that lives in Louisville. You must live at least 50 miles outside of the city.

We do charge a $50 per pet per night fee.

Make sure to put the accurate amount of guests. We have trouble with people not putting the correct amount of guests. Which gives us the first impression that our guests have lied to us (which is not a good first impression).

Treat the floors very carefully, not only were they refinished recently but they are also irreplaceable and a part of history. Absolutely no smoking inside!

------------

The entire duplex is was just recently renovated for a really fresh look. We took a lot of time to make it what it is today and we ask that guests take care of the space. We hope some of the touches we were able to incorporate help to make your stay wonderful. We care about this building a lot and it has taken a lot of time and hard-work (most done by yours truly) to make it what it is today. Coffee will be provided for your stay too!

Guest access
Guests will have access to the entire apartment.

We do charge a $50 per fee per pet for the first night. We also charge $25 per pet per night after the first night. This charge will be requested after booking.

Neighborhood highlights

Old Louisville is my favorite neighborhood in the city. It is unique, beautiful and historic and I take pride in trying to build it up even more. But it is an old neighborhood and is still technically downtown so there can be some parts that look intimidating. It is not a gated community! St. James court (10-12 minute walk) is one of the most beautiful areas in the entire city with huge sprawling Victorian mansions, Old Louisville itself is a wonderful walk with tree lined streets and great architecture. The area is a must see. Great (and unique) donuts are up the road on 7th street. 5-10 minute drive to Churchill downs, The Yum center and beautiful NULU. Nearest Brewery is "Old Louisville Brewing", but there are dozens that are only a short lyft ride away. If you like chicken wings for gameday try "Daddy Rich's" up the road.
