Nestled in the highly sought-after Hollywood neighborhood on the cusp of the University of Kentucky campus, downtown Lexington and in the heart of the 40502, this beautifully updated Craftsman bungalow is the perfect blend of timeless charm and modern luxury. With undeniable curb appeal, thoughtful renovations, and a location that places you in the heart of Lexington's cultural energy, this home is truly a one-of-a-kind gem. The home's striking exterior features the hallmark characteristics of Craftsman design with low pitched gabled roof, tapered porch columns, wide eaves with exposed rafters, and a bold color palette that pops against the mature landscaping. From the moment you step onto the inviting front porch, you'll know you've arrived somewhere special as it all starts right here where you have just found the best spot for morning coffee invites & evenings spent relaxing with a good book. Once inside, you will immediately be captivated by the original hardwood floors, detailed millwork, and abundant natural light that fill the living spaces..
