Welcome home to this charming Tudor home in the Shady Lane/Tahoma Terrace neighborhood! Lovingly cared for by the same owners for nearly 20 years, this beautifully maintained home blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates. Built nearly a century ago, this classic residence offers exceptional curb appeal, original hardwood flooring throughout most of the home, an inviting entry foyer, formal dining room, updated gas fireplace, and a charming library/office that once served as the home's original parlor. Also, continuing on the main level, the house features a butcher-block island, granite countertops, and gas range in the kitchen with a convenient half bath, and a screened-in porch perfect for year-round enjoyment. Outdoor living shines here. Start your mornings with coffee on the welcoming front patio or relax on the screened porch overlooking the private, fully fenced backyard. Entertain family and friends on the additional deck or beneath the covered gazebo-style porch surrounded by mature landscaping and peaceful green space. A rare bonus is the detached artist's cottage, complete with hardwood flooring and electricity, ideal as a studio, creative retreat, home office, hobby space, or private getaway. Recent improvements enhance comfort and peace of mind while preserving the home's historic charm, including a remodeled upstairs bathroom, refinished hardwood floors in all three bedrooms, updated lighting, new drywall in multiple rooms, replacement of all windows, updated plumbing and sewer line, roofing, fascia and siding improvements, and a B-Dry basement waterproofing system. The basement also provides valuable storage and workspace. Location is everything, and this home delivers! Conveniently situated in the heart of Lexington, you'll be just minutes from the University of Kentucky, the University of Kentucky Arboretum, Kroger Field Stadium, Baptist Health Lexington, Southland Drive, downtown Lexington, shopping, dining, and Trader Joe's.
