About this home
Welcome to one of the Highlands area's most distinctive offerings—a thoughtfully designed, custom-built ranch located on a lush corner lot in the sought-after Towne Orchard neighborhood. Crafted with the highest quality materials and incorporating passive solar design principles, this home combines timeless architecture with energy-conscious living and enduring comfort. From the moment you enter through the double doors, you're greeted by a gracious foyer that sets the tone for nearly 2,800 square feet of beautifully proportioned main-level living with nearly the same amount of finished space in the lower level. Just off the entry, a generous formal living room offers elegant space for gathering and relaxing. At the heart of the home is a spacious eat-in kitchen with center island, seamlessly open to a cozy keeping room or den--an ideal setting for everyday living. Anchoring these spaces is a truly remarkable feature: a massive, solid brick three-sided fireplace and built-in grill--constructed with more brick than the home's entire exterior--creating warmth, character, and a dramatic focal point. Adjacent to this area is a recessed wet bar, perfect for effortless entertaining. The private primary suite is complete with ensuite bath, separate dressing and vanity areas, a standing shower and two separate closets. One of the guest bedrooms features a built-in bookcase and access to an ensuite-style guest bath with separate dressing vanity, and a tub-shower combination. Two additional spacious bedrooms share a third full bath with double sinks and another tub-shower combo. The finished lower level offers a sprawling open-concept entertaining space--ideal for billiards, multiple lounge areas, and more. Another beautiful brick fireplace adds warmth and style, while a second wet bar and a pass-through window from the roughed-in kitchen area enhance functionality for future design. A convenient half bath and large storage room add further versatility to this level. Car enthusiasts or those with oversized vehicles will appreciate the rare four-car tandem style garage, a standout feature in this area. The outdoor living spaces are equally impressive, with a covered patio, open lanai, and a sparkling in-ground pool--all enveloped by brick and wrought iron fencing, as well as lush, mature landscaping that adds privacy and serenity. Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated--including a comprehensive renovation in 2008--this home also features two separate HVAC systems for year-round comfort and efficiency. With its exceptional location, expansive layout, and unique architectural elements, this one-of-a-kind home is ready for its next chapter. A truly special opportunity in one of Louisville's most treasured neighborhoods! See the attached extensive list of property features and updates.
