Located just blocks from Central Park, a 4-bedroom, 4-bath house in Old Louisville is doing numbers on the Instagram account Zillow Gone Wild. We’re talking over 13,000 likes and 360+ comments.
So what’s all the fuss about? Here’s the fast facts about the viral home:
2,875 sqft spread across three floors on a 0.17 acre lot
Asking price: $735,000
A floating staircase to all three levels framed by exposed brick
Private office with floor-to-ceiling built-in bookshelves
An indoor garden in the primary suite
City Editor Declan is daydreaming about filling these bookshelves with their own collection.
