585 S Upper St

A converted brick tobacco warehouse completed in 2006, this low-rise condominium complex offers industrial-loft living immediately adjacent to the University of Kentucky. Units are primarily two-bedroom lofts with open plans, double-height spaces on some floors (9'–15' ceilings), exposed ductwork and beams, and a mix of polished concrete and hardwood floors. Interiors commonly include eat-in kitchens with breakfast bars, ceiling fans, elevators, and entry foyers; many residences have in-unit laundry hookups or appliances included. Common areas emphasize secure, campus-oriented living: card-key entry with 24-hour monitoring, indoor bike storage, on-site parking with assigned permits, and interior mailboxes. The homeowners association covers essentials such as high-speed internet wiring, water, sewer, trash, and snow removal, and the building benefits from managed upkeep and a planned roof replacement. Located one block from UK campus and within walking distance of hospitals, Rupp Arena, shops and restaurants, the property suits residents seeking a walkable, urban college-town lifestyle while retaining features of exposed industrial architecture and practical building services.
