Sellers have taken the plunge with a significant price improvement! Now we are ready for you to slide on over and make an offer! Welcome to a Richmond classic where timeless Southern charm meets extraordinary flexibility and income potential. Tucked away in a serene, established neighborhood just 1.5 miles from Eastern Kentucky University, this beautifully maintained home offers over 2,900 sq ft above grade and approximately 1,400 sq ft below grade — creating space not only to live well, but to leverage opportunity. Step inside and experience the warm character and rich architectural details that make classic homes so beloved. The thoughtfully designed layout features four spacious bedrooms, including a rare double-primary setup — ideal for multigenerational living, extended guests, or flexible rental configurations. The main primary suite is a true retreat, showcasing a fully updated oversized walk-in shower beneath a stunning skylight — your own spa-like escape each morning. A beautifully functional Butler's pantry/laundry room on the first floor blends classic Southern practicality with everyday convenience, while abundant storage throughout keeps life organized and seamless. Two fireplaces anchor the main level — one in the living room for cozy gatherings and another in the kitchen/dining area, adding warmth and charm to the heart of the home. And then... the showstopper. At the center of the property is a 20x40 heated indoor pool — a rare amenity in this market. Offering year-round usability, this space creates endless possibilities: • Private luxury retreat • Entertainer's dream home • Wellness-focused lifestyle property • Potential short-term rental or event-style opportunity (buyer to verify local regulations) • Premium guest experience for visiting EKU families, game weekends, graduations, and special events Amenities drive demand — and indoor pools are exceptionally rare. The finished basement expands flexibility even further with a welcoming rec room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace — perfect for movie nights, game days, or additional guest space. A super clean garage with attached workshop area offers hobby, storage, or workspace versatility. Outdoors, enjoy a private backyard ideal for morning coffee, grilling, gardening, or quiet evenings under the stars. Major updates have already been completed — plumbing, HVAC, roof, windows, and doors — providing peace of mind and long-term value. Whether you're looking for a forever home, a multi-use property, or exploring income-producing potential near campus, this Richmond treasure delivers charm, flexibility, and a built-in experience factor that sets it apart. A daily escape. A rare opportunity. A home that offers more than just a place to live.
