Welcome to this gorgeous Dutch Colonial on a large corner lot in the heart of St. Matthews, thoughtfully renovated by an architect to blend timeless character with modern updates including an Alexa-based smart home system. Refinished original hardwoods flow from the living room with gas-log fireplace to the dining room and a charming 3-season sunroom. The all-new kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, new appliances and a convection/air-fryer range. There are 4 bedrooms, including a small first-floor bedroom ideal for a home office, and 3 full baths: two brand-new tiled baths plus the original bath with a reglazed tub. The Primary Suite is upstairs with a private, ensuite full bath. It shares pocket doors with an adjoining big bedroom giving you the flexibility to instantly enlarge the Primary Suite or use it as a nursery or sitting room. A rare find in a home from this period! There are a total of 3 bedrooms and another full bath. Updates include a new electrical panel, water heater, powered attic vent, PEX plumbing, ceiling fans and smart home features. The partial basement has new flooring and paint, laundry hookups and a workshop with its own exterior entrance. Outside, enjoy a large detached 2-car garage with attic and electricity, a garden shed and new landscaping. No HOA. The basement is rough finished with new LVP flooring and has 3 large rooms. Two are capable of being extra family rooms, one has a refinished, retro sink cabinet combination and a TV alcove. The 3rd room is a big laundry room. The ceiling in the basement is approximately 6 ½ feet high. Experience the charm and convenience of St. Matthews living, with easy access to restaurants, coffee shops, Shelbyville Road shopping, the weekly St. Matthews farmers market, nearby parks, highways, and health care.
