This remarkable historic Italianate duplex, designed by Lexington's own Cincinnatus Shryock and built in the late 19th century (circa 1895), blends timeless architecture with modern updates. Step inside to find soaring ceilings, intricate millwork, and elegant moldings that showcase the craftsmanship of the era. The main residence features an updated kitchen with subway tile to the ceiling, floating oak shelves, and a dual-oven gas range—a perfect balance of historic charm and modern convenience. This property offers exceptional versatility for today's lifestyle and goals. It can serve as a spacious single-family residence, function as an owner-occupied home with a separate income-producing unit, or operate with both units as rental properties for the savvy investor. Few opportunities in downtown Lexington combine such historic character with this level of flexibility. Outside, enjoy a fenced garden and entertaining space, along with off-street parking for up to three vehicles. Located in the heart of downtown Lexington, you'll be just steps from Gratz Park, Transylvania University, NoLi, local restaurants, cafes, and nightlife. Nestled within the Historic Overlay District, the home's architectural integrity is preserved, with all exterior changes subject to review by the Board of Architectural Review. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Lexington history while enjoying the best of modern living and urban convenience.
