AWESOME, Breathtaking, Enormous Richardson Romanesque Castle-like Mansion (w/ Carriage House), built C.1892 as the home of E.V. Thompson Jr. on S 3rd St's stately "Millionaire's Row" in the heart of Old Louisville. Similar in style to, and likely designed by the same architect as, the Conrad-Caldwell House on St James Ct. An intricately carved stone facade ushers you beneath a grand Roman archway, across a mosaic-tile threshold, and into a truly majestic Entry - the beginning of one of the best-preserved floor plans in the neighborhood, w/ some of the finest Original period details still intact. The main house has Never been Cut-up and offers huge rooms made for gathering, dual front and rear staircases w/ sweeping banisters, abundant, exquisite, irreplaceable stained and leaded art glass, millwork, pocket doors (5 sets on the 1st Flr alone) and fireplace mantels, all waiting to be admired again. Labyrinth-like basement w/ full bath, laundry and area that once served as a separate kitchen. Large, renovated 2-3 BR, 1 1/2 BA Carriage House (now rented for $1,125/mo) has a separate storage room (the former 1-car garage - alley and yard bay doors now walled-off). Separate driveway area w/ double gate off the alley accesses the spacious, fenced 1/3 acre lot. Used for several years before the current ownership as the offices of a professional engineering firm, the E.V. Thompson Jr. House now awaits its next chapter - and the right people to love it back to life. Needs work to return to its former glory, but the bones, the craftsmanship, and the history are all here. A truly special, once-in-a-generation property of architectural significance, seeking new appreciative stewards. Home qualifies for historic tax credits (for qualified restoration work) - current owners have already begun the process (ask Listing Agents for details). Sold As Is, Where is. No warranties given or implied. Buyers to do their own due diligence.
