Property Description

This is the one everyone hopes hits the market. Set on a charming corner lot in one of Lexington's most loved neighborhoods, this Kenwick duplex is the perfect blend of storybook charm, modern upgrades, and built-in income—all priced below market and appraised value. The main-level home is warm, inviting, and completely move-in ready. From the beautifully remodeled kitchen and bath to the refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint, and new tile in the primary bedroom, every space feels thoughtfully refreshed while honoring the home's historic soul. Behind the scenes, the big-ticket updates are already done: new HVAC, mostly new windows, newer roof, new siding, and added storage—so you can move in and simply enjoy. The professionally sealed and painted basement provides clean, dry space ideal for storage, hobbies, or a workshop, while main-level washer/dryer hookups add everyday convenience. Outside, the home shines just as brightly. Professional landscaping and zoning-approved wood privacy fencing create a private, polished outdoor setting—perfect for morning coffee, evening gatherings, or quiet Kenwick strolls home. Upstairs, the one-bedroom apartment feels like a charming retreat straight out of a novel—sun-filled, cozy, and full of character. Whether used as an Airbnb, guest suite, or long-term rental, this proven income-producing space offers estimated rental potential of $950-$1,450 per month. Furnishings are negotiable, making it easy to step into a turnkey setup. This is more than a home—it's a lifestyle, an investment, and a rare opportunity wrapped into one. Ideal for owner-occupants wanting a mortgage helper, investors seeking reliable income, or anyone who knows that Kenwick homes don't last long. Fall in love quickly—because someone else will.
