About this home
Looking for an investment? Want to house hack and have a tenant pay a chunk of your mortgage? Check out 728 East Chestnut, a beautifully renovated two-story brick duplex in the Phoenix Hill neighborhood. It is 2200SF with two fully furnished units, each featuring a private interior front entrance accessed through a foyer featuring a gorgeous original wooden staircase. Zoned OR-2 and residing on a generous urban lot (over .11 acres) with alley access, off-street parking, and a large rear yard/lot, this listing also offers development and expansion possibilities. Each 1100SF unit has a rear deck/patio with private access to the spacious back yard, a bright and airy living room, a large fully equipped eat-in kitchen, two bedrooms, a full bath, and a laundry. This classic Louisville building has been very well maintained and run as a successful executive rental for years. It is a turn-key opportunity — perfect as an owner-occupied Airbnb for tourists and travelers, or a duplex for longer-term furnished rentals for traveling medical workers, other professionals, and people relocating to Louisville and needing a flexible space while they find their home. Located smack dab in the center of all the places to be, this home is blocks from the Medical Center, NuLu, the Convention Center, Slugger Field, our gorgeous waterfront, and Paristown Point, and just a stone's throw from the Lower Highlands. Getting around town via car is a breeze, with quick access to major surface roads, the interstate, and the airport.
