Welcome to Seneca Gardens—an idyllic, tree-lined enclave tucked between the Highlands and St. Matthews. Known for its walkability, charm, and easy access to parks, coffee shops, and restaurants, this historic neighborhood is one of Louisville's most beloved places to live.
Set among classic homes and quiet streets, 2538 Seneca Drive offers a rare opportunity: nearly 3,000 square feet of space, priced at just $168 per square foot—where nearby homes are selling between $278-$291 per square foot. This home is priced to allow you to dream, design, and make it truly yours. The welcoming foyer immediately reveals the warmth and character of the home. To the right, a formal living room showcases a decorative fireplace and stained-glass French doors that unfold into a sunrooman ideal spot for morning coffee, plant babies, or a cozy reading nook.
The formal dining room is bathed in natural light, with oversized windows that look out onto the peaceful backyard. Beyond that, the layout transitions into a kitchen ready for your personal updates and then into a spacious family room, where built-in bookshelves line every wallperfect for displaying collections or creating a cozy library feel. Two deep storage closets provide added functionality. A flexible first-floor room offers potential as a fourth bedroom, home office, or guest space, depending on your needs. A charming half bath with original tile rounds out the main floor.
Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms share a full hallway bath with vintage tilework and mid-century charm. The primary suite is bright and inviting, offering a large walk-in closet, an en suite bath, and windows that frame serene treetop views. Rest assured, the footprint of the current primary bedroom and bathroom provide ample space for you to make this the bathroom of your dreams.
The unfinished 588-square-foot basement houses the laundry area and provides plenty of additional storage or workshop space. Out back, the fully fenced yard is ready for pets, play, or gardening. A three-car garageplus additional parkingoffers room for vehicles, bikes, and gear. While the driveway appears to be shared, each side belongs to its respective property.
