1956 Richmond Dr, Louisville, KY 40205

Property Description

Welcome to 1956 Richmond Drive. A beautifully maintained bungalow in the heart of the Highlands. Close to local restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, the farmers market, and neighborhood other favorites. Behind the mature landscaping and charming façade is a Highlands bungalow that has been thoughtfully cared for while preserving the details that make homes from this era so special. Original hardwood floors, rich wood trim, stained glass windows, arched openings, and solid wood doors create warmth that simply can't be replicated in new construction. The screened front porch quickly becomes a favorite place to spend time. With its original checkerboard tile floor, skylights, and views of the surrounding trees, it feels less like a porch and more like an extension of the home. A place for morning coffee, rainy afternoons, or evenings spent enjoying the neighborhood. Inside, the main living spaces flow naturally from the welcoming living room to the generous dining room before opening into a spacious kitchen with abundant cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and room to grow. Whether you love the kitchen just as it is or dream of creating your own custom space over time, the layout offers endless possibilities. The first floor features a spacious primary bedroom with direct access to a full bath, while upstairs offers two additional bedrooms, a second full bath, and flexible space that can easily adapt to your needs. The sellers even incorporated a removable section of the stair railing to make moving large furniture upstairs more accessible. Outside, the large deck overlooks a private backyard that feels tucked away from the city, while off-street parking for multiple vehicles adds everyday convenience. Beyond its charm, this home has received numerous meaningful improvements that provide peace of mind, including new plumbing throughout most of the home, with the drain lines and the majority of the water supply lines replaced approximately two years ago. Additional updates include an HVAC system that is less than 10 years old, new siding installed in 2024, a new water heater in 2025, and a freshly painted exterior with new gutters completed in 2026. Some homes impress with trends. This one stands out because it's warm, inviting, beautifully maintained, and ready for its next chapter. Schedule your showing today!
