Remarks

- Tucked behind a gated, tree-lined drive off Kings Highway, this 2002 farmhouse sits on 14.92 rolling acres bordered by working farms. A stocked pond sits at the front of the property, and the covered wrap-around porch is rocking chair ready or front porch swinging. Inside, the vaulted great room opens to a fully renovated kitchen built for people who actually cook and entertain. Quartz counters, a custom wood range hood, double wall ovens, a farmhouse sink, and a center island with seating for four anchor the space. The adjacent dining area holds a table for twelve, and the gas log fireplace in the living room warms the open floor plan. The main floor primary suite opens to the rear deck and includes an updated bath with double vanities, a walk-in tile shower, and a cedar-lined walk-in closet. The second suite, converted from the attached garage, adds a private bath and its own entrance, functioning as a second suite for guests, extended family, or a home office. Upstairs, two more bedrooms and a full bath share a loft/walkway overlooking the great room. The third room make a great office, playroom or craft room. The walkout basement adds a family room, game room, full bath, and a finished office currently used as a non-conforming bedroom. The unfinished mechanical room could be finished into a kitchenette for a separate living quarters in multigenerational living situation if needed. Outside, the saltwater pool sits beside a 24x28 detached garage with a full-length deck. A 24x24 barn and fenced pasture handle horses or livestock. The wooded creek corridor at the rear has produced deer every season, and the front five acres yield hay. The seller will consider selling the home furnished, and the property may also be suitable as a short-term rental. Shelbyville and Frankfort are 12 minutes in either direction. Louisville is 35 minutes, Lexington is 45. Additional land may be available for purchase.
