There are few properties in Lexington quite like those nestled in the Old Paris Road/Deepwood area — land once owned by noted Kentuckian, Benjamin Gratz. Beloved for their gorgeous setting, large lots, stately homes and convenience to downtown & the interstate, these beauties rarely come available on the open market. 1808 Old Paris is no exception. Nestled on a large lot, just shy of an acre, this beautiful Limestone home, built in the 1930s has been in the same family since 1959 and been carefully tended over the years. Thoughtful improvements including the addition of a sunroom and spacious dressing room off the primary bedroom, complement the gracious living spaces that abound with the character you'd expect in a pre-war home —arched doorways, original hardwoods, and lots of built-in cabinets & shelving. A full basement includes a half bath, bonus rooms plus a 2-car garage. A detached garage as well as a large shed provide additional storage opportunities and hobby space. Truly a delight to behold!
