Public Remarks: After being lovingly cared for for 14 years, 207 Hemingway is available to the next new lucky owners. Freshly tended landscaping and a front elevation full of curb appeal welcome you into a traditional St. Matthews Cape Cod. Just inside, the living room stays bright thanks to a wide front window, and sunlight bounces off of refinished original hardwood floors. Here, a wood-burning fireplace anchors the far wall, offering a cozy respite as we roll into Louisville's Fall weather. Through part of the hall, the kitchen and dining area blooms to life. Smooth-front cabinetry and granite counters combine with wall ovens and a breakfast bar for a cooking area perfect for the home chef who loves to entertain. The attached dining area opens to the rear via French doors. Down the hall, two first floor bedrooms have space enough for queen sized beds and larger furnishings. Easily convenient, original built-in storage from the 1940's and a full bath with original tile round out the main floor. Upstairs, we find the primary suite, which stretches the width of the second floor. Built in bookcases, attic access, and a large walk-in closet assure plenty of storage. An attached full bath has a wide vanity, shower, and a window unit AC to ensure cool evenings here. The basement is a true treasure found in Saint Matthews. Over 1,100 square feet of finished space! An L-shaped family room, office, and half bath combine with unfinished space and a large laundry and utility room for an amount of usable below-grade square footage almost unheard of in the area. Outside, an Azek composite deck steps down to a flat, green lawn that's surrounded by mature trees and shrubbery for a lovely, private space. A screened porch off of the living room overlooks the driveway, providing a casual living space. Two-car detached garage has a handsomely sized workspace in the rear, with opportunity for a garage gym, man cave, or potential work from home space. New roof, new windows and storm doors, new gutters, and a freshly screened porch combine with pride of ownership and a wonderful location near the Watterson and the shops along Shelbyville Road and the Plaza to make this one of the best buys in 40207.
