Public Remarks: Nicely maintained and updated brick ranch with a detached one-car garage, ideally located in Audubonvale—just minutes from Germantown, the University of Louisville, and The Highlands. Hardwood floors and abundant natural light welcome you into the spacious living room, where arched doorways lead to a stylishly updated kitchen featuring tile flooring, granite countertops, stainless appliances, tile backsplash, and a mix of open and closed cabinetry. Both the primary and second bedrooms offer hardwood floors and generous natural light. The full bath has been thoughtfully renovated with a tile floor, modern floating vanity, and a walk-in shower with vertical subway tile and a built-in niche. The full unfinished basement provides laundry, ample storage, and endless potential for future living space. Enjoy the outdoors from the screened porch or covered pebble-stone patio overlooking the fully fenced backyard. Covered parking is a plus with the detached garage. Seller is offering a one-year America's Preferred Home Warranty.

Midcentury modern ranch close to Germantown & the Zoo! This lovely updated midcentury home has been meticulously maintained and beautifully updated - arched doorways, new kitchen, new AC, updated roof, and more! Huge fenced in yard with outdoor living space. The detached garage is perfect for car storage, or a workshop! Tons of potential in the professionally waterproofed, unfinished basement. Please note, the corner of the unfinished basement is technically in a floodplain, however, sellers have not had any water issues since they purchased 9 years ago. Seller pays $600/yr for flood insurance (policy is transferrable).
