Nestled in the heart of Chevy Chase just off Tates Creek Road, this 4-bedroom, 6.5-bath home is a stunning study in classic elegance minutes from the University of Kentucky, Kroger Field, hospitals, dining, and entertainment.

The finished lower level includes a home gym, playroom, en-suite bedroom, and ample storage. Outside: a gated drive with porte cochère and a two-car detached garage with finished space above full bath and kitchenette included.
Beautifully renovated and decorated home on Eldemere Road. Features 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, updated kitchen, hardwood floors, large formal living and dining rooms, family room and screened back porch.
