197 Antwerp Ave, Mount Sterling, KY 40353

Vintage charm. Modern confidence. Rare downtown walkability. This classic Craftsman was extensively renovated in 2021 while carefully preserving the timeless character and craftsmanship that simply cannot be replicated today. Antique homes are not for everyone, but if you appreciate architectural integrity and a home that stands apart from cookie-cutter or tract construction, this one is for you. Offering 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths just steps from downtown shops, dining and community events, this location is increasingly hard to find especially paired with a home that has been so thoughtfully renovated and well maintained. The flexible layout includes a spacious rear room previously used as a primary bedroom with fireplace, exposed beams and full closet, easily adaptable as a family room or office. Restored hardwood floors, exposed brick accents, shiplap, a cozy reading nook and two fireplaces anchor the main level, while the basement was professionally waterproofed in 2022 with a lifetime warranty and includes laundry and a full bath ideal for guests or extended living space. The 2021 renovation features quartz countertops, solid wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances with range hood, updated lighting, new flooring in the primary bedroom and baths, new vanities and fixtures, new roof, new central air and ductwork and custom beam details. Outdoor amenities include a covered patio, stone fire pit, level backyard and a small carriage style garage; the driveway is owned by this property and shared by recorded easement for neighboring garage access. Major updates include HVAC (2021), furnace (2021), appliances (2021), washer/dryer (2020), water heater (2017) and roof inspection (2021). The home generates lots of interest and gone under contract multiple times but did not closing due to buyer financing circumstances, not property condition. Christion House with H2H Inspections completed a whole home inspection on March 4, 2026 and that will be made available to the buyer with the accepted offer.
