Description

Some homes are remodeled. Others are thoughtfully reimagined. Welcome to 1140 Reutlinger Ave, where classic Germantown character, remarkable craftsmanship and incredibly smart use of space come together in a home that is truly something special. The sellers are talented craftsmen who have poured countless hours of painstaking work, creativity and love into this home—and it shows. Rather than simply replacing the old with the new, they have thoughtfully improved the home while respecting the character and period that make Germantown homes so appealing. The kitchen and bath have both been beautifully remodeled with careful attention to detail, style and functionality. The hardwood floors were painstakingly refinished by the owners in a distinctive warm tone that works beautifully with the home's finishes and color palette, while the brick fireplace provides a wonderful reminder of the home's original character. But perhaps the most impressive accomplishment is how exceptionally well the available space has been utilized. Built-in cabinetry, closets and creative storage solutions can be found throughout, providing conveniences you might expect in a considerably larger home. Nearly every space seems to have a purpose, yet nothing feels forced or overdone. The result is a home that is charming, comfortable, organized and remarkably functional. And just when you think you've seen it all—wait until you see the garage. The approximately 24' x 30' oversized 2.5-car garage is an extraordinary find for Germantown. With extra-tall ceilings, extensive loft storage and a mini-split system for heating and cooling, this isn't simply a place to park your cars. It offers tremendous possibilities as a year-round workshop, woodworking shop, studio, craft area or hobby space. The overhead door provides access from the alley for easy auto access. The fully privacy-fenced backyard continues the home's thoughtful approach to space. A pergola creates an inviting outdoor living area that's perfect for relaxing, dining or entertaining, while 24X30 garage, the entire backyard feels like a natural extension of the home's living space.' And then there's the location. Enjoy the character and lifestyle that make Germantown one of Louisville's most recognizable neighborhoods, with restaurants, coffee shops and neighborhood gathering spots nearby, plus convenient access to The Highlands, Logan Street Market and much more. 1140 Reutlinger isn't the largest home you'll see—but it may be one of the most thoughtfully designed. The craftsmanship, creativity, storage and attention to detail allow this home to live far beyond its square footage. This is Germantown charm done exceptionally well—and a home that truly needs to be seen to be appreciated.
