Description

For the consummate entertainer, an exquisite opportunity inside Louisville Metro offers style, space, and endless possibility.
Follow the enchanting, rounded drive to this sprawling ranch-style wonder. Fresh, modern landscaping swathes the front of the house, while crisp architectural details draw the eye toward the arched entry. Step inside from the covered front porch to a wide great room. Here, details like custom built-in cabinetry, polished wood ceiling detail, arched French doors overlooking the pool and patio, and an adjoining dining area combine to create a large, open space fit for Springtime Derby gatherings or cozy holidays with family and friends. To the left, the enormous kitchen boasts custom Classic Kitchens cabinetry with hidden pantry, thoughtful details throughout the appliance placement, and a large island with ample bar-height seating. Open to this area is a second dining area, and a breakfast area, overlooking the pool. Imagine finishing Saturday pancakes then heading outside to bask in the sun in your own private oasis. A stunning bar at the rear of this wing allows for easy service to the outside entertaining area, and is adjacent to a convenient poolside bathroom, while a private stairwell leads to a finished lower level space perfect for a Kentucky-themed speakeasy that’s convenient to kitchen area, or can provide a quiet office retreat. At the front of this wing, a beautifully-appointed powder room and large laundry room are located off of a main-level, two-car attached garage.
Just outside all of the living areas, the pool area spans the rear courtyard. Here, the free-form pool and sunken hot tub completely remodeled in 2022 echo the blue detail on the rear of the home and is bordered by outdoor fire features, while the sprawling patio offers space for multiple seating areas. Steps lead down to this area from the main living area, the kitchen, the poolside bathroom, as well as the primary suite. Walk down here to the gently sloping rear yard that overlooks the adjoining farm, where horses will wander up to the fence to say hello, and dense trees provide the ultimate privacy.
Back inside, the sleeping wing stretches along the west side of the home, assuring soft morning light to awake in this Heaven. The expansive primary suite includes two large walk-in closets, private hall, and sprawling ensuite bathroom with corner soaking tub, dual vanities, and luxurious steam shower. In the primary bedroom, sliding doors open to that incredible pool area, and a private staircase leads to a lower level gym.
Also on this side of the home, 3 other generously-sized bedrooms share a stylishly-appointed hall bath, and each has ample closet space.
The massive unfinished basement, accessible from either of the finished lower-level spaces is an auto lover’s dream, with space for 6-8 cars, with multiple bay door entrances. For the homeowner who needs additional finished square footage, this unfinished area totals almost 5,000 square feet.
The entire property sprawls over almost 7.5 acres, and includes a 9,000 sq. ft. Pole Barn with separate road access. With over 1.3 million dollars in upgrades and renovations, there are too many details to mention, so please reach out to listing agents for a complete improvement list. Of note is a new roof, new utilities, solar-powered main home and outbuilding as well as designer details and custom touches throughout, but the stylish details and thoughtful layout really need to be seen to be appreciated.
