416 W Breckinridge St APT B2, Louisville, KY 40203

This spacious circa 1913 condominium is located on the 1st floor of the Historic Thierman building on the edge of Old Louisville and downtown Louisville and simply has it all--secured off-street parking, in-unit laundry, private outdoor spaces, loads of additional storage and more. One of the largest units in the building, and one of just a few that has an additional half bath, offering 1,618 SF of living space. Each room is filled with historic charm and character. History abounds in this grand yellow-brick courtyard building designed by architect James J. Gaffney that's been placed on the ''National Register of Historic Places.'' Each of the 24 units have wrought iron railed balconies overlooking the beautifully landscaped courtyard that blooms in rotating colors throughout most of the year. This unit has one of the best views of the courtyard from its balcony that stretches across the entire front faade of the unit. Enter from the main courtyard through a secured entry that opens to an amazing staircase with original marble stairs and vintage wrought iron banisters. Upon entering the home, you'll be greeted with oak flooring, handsome trim and molding, mahogany wainscoting, and a decorative fireplace with tiled surround and wood mantel at the foyer. The large living room features beamed ceilings, fresh paint, and offers several potential sitting/entertainment areas with two incredible built-in glass-paned double door bookcases, and French doors that open out on to the North-facing balcony featuring stunning views of the Thierman courtyard. This spot is perfect for morning coffee, reading, and/or evening wine and entertaining. From the living room through a second set of glass paned French doors you enter the formal dining room with chandelier and another set of doors that lead out to the rear South-facing balcony, crowned with stained glass windows. The dining room flows into the spacious kitchen that has two large windows, ample cabinet storage and countertop space. The kitchen has the potential to be a showstopper with a little bit of updating. Off the kitchen is an additional room that includes a half bath that could be used as a bonus room, office, or a third bedroom. This room leads out to the convenient unfinished storage room and on to the exterior back entrance to the unit. Down the main hallway you'll find two large bedrooms with nicely sized closets. One of the bedrooms has been fitted with custom wood floor to ceiling bookshelves around the perimeter of the room, offering an option for an impressive office or library, and features views into the main courtyard through another set of French doors. The full bathroom is tucked away off the hallway and has a pedestal sink, original white ceramic mosaic tiled floor, and a built-in porcelain tub/shower with white subway tiled walls. Just near the bathroom is a convenient laundry closet that houses opposing full-sized washer and dryer units which will remain. Additional storage for B2 is available in the basement of the building accessed via the back staircase. Thierman includes a gated parking lot with remote entry on the corner of 5th St. and Breckinridge St, just 35 feet from the rear of the building. This sizeable, history-filled condominium home is a rare find on the first floor, and is ready for a new owner to make it their own amazing space. Convenient to dining, entertainment, The Palace and Brown Theaters, and all that downtown Louisville and Old Louisville have to offer.
