Property Description
Just 2 miles off I-64, this easily accessible, gentleman's farm has a multitude of possibilties. Several updates have brought this majestic farmhouse to life offering plenty of space for a large, or growing, family or the space to host large groups for business or pleasure. The open floor plan is accentuated by a gourmet kitchen large enough to cook in and entertain in at the same time, room enough for a dining table that seats 14, and a gas log fireplace in the vaulted living room that shares its warmth with the entire house including the three bedrooms on the second floor. An expansive deck off of the living room is also accessible from the main floor ensuite master. Views from every room in this house are a gift. Horse lovers can see the back pasture and an approximately 24x24 barn easily, while nature lovers have an ever changing assortment of wildlife making daily appearances. A fully stocked pond creates a serene view from the front of the house along with the tree lined driveway sequestering you from the daily hustle. This property is bordered by other large farms solidifying its serenity.
The front 5 acres are cut each year for hay, while the wooded area running along the creek on the left rear of the property has seen some successful deer hunting.
A recent renovation has converted the attached garage creating a second main floor ensuite/in-law suite/office with easy ingress and egress through the newly added large mudroom. There is potential for much more with this house as the partially finished walkout basement could easily be finished as an apartment. At this time, the basement has an extra large family room, full bath, and an office space currently being used as a bedroom. A large unfinished mechanical room could be used as storage or converted into additional living space.
Outside an estimated 24x28 detached garage is paired with an 18x30 above ground salt water pool and a deck running the length of the garage making this an excellent outdoor space for relaxing and hosting guests through the summer months.
Shelbyville and Frankfort are 12 minutes in either direction making a trip to the grocery easy, while Louisville and Lexington are 35 and 45 minutes respectively. Overall, this is 15 acres of paradise in the heart of small town KY but minutes from anything you need. The house lends itself to large families, multigenerational living, corporate retreats, equine bed and board, bed and breakfast, and a host of other amazing uses.
