Property Description

The Fountain Court location is a classic ''walking court'' that leads from one of the most iconic features in Louisville, the St. James Court Fountain, to the main thoroughfare of Old Louisville, Fourth Street. As you enter the home, a high-ceiling foyer and three-story grand staircase greet you and lead to the beautiful formal living and dining rooms that connect to a completely updated kitchen and half bath. The primary suite and updated bath as well as another full bath and guest bedroom are on the second floor. The third floor could well be a separate living quarters with its own new kitchenette, full bath, two bedrooms and a spacious living/family room. It could make a great, quiet retreat for your home office. Fountain Court is a private, quiet location that still has the convenience of three parking spaces right at your back deck. Over the period from 2015 to 2019 (the most recent five-year data available), average home prices in Area 1, encompassing Old Louisville, increased at an annual average rate of 10.6%, higher appreciation than in any other Metro MLS area.
