The chef's kitchen features custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, top-of-the-line appliances, and premium finishes, blending the warmth of history with contemporary sophistication. Both bathrooms have been completely redesigned—the primary suite now includes a custom walk-in tile shower, luxurious soaking tub, designer vanities, and a private laundry room conveniently attached. The guest bath offers its own custom walk-in shower, high-end fixtures, and elegant detailing that echo the home's refined aesthetic. The primary ensuite serves as a luxurious retreat with a coffee and champagne bar, comfortable sitting area, and thoughtful modern touches, including an automated recessed television and motorized window shades—a seamless blend of indulgence and innovation. With two laundry areas and a well-designed layout, the home effortlessly balances historic charm with modern functionality. Enjoy Lexington's beautiful seasons from the covered porches on both the first and second levels, perfect for relaxing mornings or entertaining evenings. Located just steps from downtown's premier restaurants, shops, and cultural destinations, this extraordinary property represents the best of both worlds—a rare fusion of historical prestige and modern luxury in one of Lexington's most storied neighborhoods.
