Property Description

Welcome to Historic 233 Rand Avenue! Step into the timeless character of this beautifully preserved historic home, where original millwork, 10-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, and oversized windows create the sense of scale and craftsmanship that simply cannot be replicated in newer construction. Thoughtful updates and 3,243 square feet of living space bring the comfort and functionality of modern living to this impressive 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home. The spacious primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a private en-suite bath with 2 vanities and oversized shower. Three additional generously proportioned bedrooms offer exceptional flexibility for family, guests, home offices, or creative spaces. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the home offers generous living spaces including formal living room, den, dining room, eat-in kitchen, and dining room, along with a full laundry room + pantry, dedicated mud room, and additional kitchen pantry —providing the storage and organization that can be hard to find in an historic home. An unfinished walk-up attic adds abundant additional storage and future possibilities. The beautifully landscaped backyard extends the living space with a large paved seating area and custom firepit, creating an inviting setting for outdoor dining, entertaining, or relaxing with friends and family. Thoughtful improvements provide modern comfort and lasting value, including a 2016 roof, 2-zone HVAC system + updated plumbing and electric. You will also find a modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances plus updated bathrooms, while still preserving the home's distinctive historic character. Ideally located within walking and cycling distance of Transylvania University, the University of Kentucky, Greyline Station, Al's Bar, Gratz Park, and downtown's restaurants, shops, and nightlife, 233 Rand Avenue offers an exceptional combination of historic architecture, generous living space, modern functionality, and urban convenience. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a substantial historic home where original craftsmanship, gracious proportions, and thoughtful updates come together in one of Lexington's most convenient downtown locations.
