Elegant Historic Residence: A rare opportunity awaits in the heart of Covington's historic district - this distinguished residence, set on a grand corner lot on S. Jahncke Ave, seamlessly combines timeless architecture with modern conveniences. An added advantage: the adjacent lot (6B) to the left property line is available for purchase, creating even more potential for expansion or the design of a private outdoor sanctuary. Built over a century ago, the home exudes unparalleled character, charm, and craftsmanship, offering a lifestyle as rich in history and yet offers the comfort of home. With 4,044 square feet of living space, this stately property features gleaming hardwood floors, an attached two-car garage, and the luxury of off-street parking - an exceptional find in downtown. Expansive interiors include 5 bedrooms / 4 full baths / several sitting & keeping rooms and provides the perfect backdrop for both elegant living and relaxed everyday living. The location is truly prime. Nestled in one of the area's most sought-after golf cart communities, residents enjoy effortless access to renowned restaurants, boutique shopping, top-rated schools, medical facilities, and vibrant entertainment. From the backyard, you can even delight in the lively sounds of the St. Paul's marching band during home football games, a charming reminder of community spirit. While already impressive in its current form, this property is also ready for your custom remodel or thoughtful updates, presenting an extraordinary opportunity to create a one-of-a-kind estate tailored to your personal style. For the discerning buyer, this home represents more than a residence - it is a piece of history, an anchor in one of the city's high demand areas, and a lifestyle defined by elegance, possibility, and convenience.
