Property Description

Welcome to the Peter Paul House, one of Central Kentucky's most iconic & storied homes. Recognized for its distinctive, pink-painted brick, this early 1800s Federal-style residence is a beloved landmark in the heart of Lexington's Gratz Park Historic District. Named for its original owner, the home blends rich architectural heritage with generations of thoughtful updates, while preserving period details like hardwood floors, pegged window frames, original shutters & ornamental coal-burning fireplaces. Inside, a foyer leads to a cozy den with exposed wood beams, a first-floor bedroom & a full bath, then opens into a breathtaking central hall with soaring 11-foot ceilings, polished limestone tile floors & arched windows overlooking the private brick courtyard. The custom kitchen features a large island, Corian countertops, extensive cabinetry & a walk-in pantry & mudroom. Two separate staircases lead to private upstairs bedroom suites, each with its own ensuite bath. The primary suite, located at the front of the home, includes a spacious landing & generous walk-in closet.. Enjoy the convenience of a two-car attached garage with easy access from The Byway alley. Outside, a beautiful brick courtyard is surrounded by landscaping & the majestic presence of a gingko tree believed to have been planted by Henry Clay. This rare downtown offering combines historical significance & artistic provenance, just moments from the vibrant restaurants, shops & cultural landmarks of Gratz Park & downtown Lexington. More than a home, it's a piece of Lexington's living history.
