About This Home

** Seller is open to all offers. Set on 4.55 scenic acres in the heart of Bourbon County, this beautifully restored circa-1881 farmhouse offers a rare blend of historic character, modern comfort, and endless possibilities. From the moment you arrive, the home's timeless presence and inviting porches set the tone for a slower, more intentional way of living. Inside, a gracious foyer and grand staircase welcome you to elegant, light-filled spaces designed for both everyday living and memorable gatherings. Original hardwood floors, detailed millwork, and thoughtfully preserved architectural elements create a sense of warmth and authenticity throughout. The main level features a refined parlor or office, a formal dining room with built-ins, and a sunlit family room that opens effortlessly to the surrounding landscape. The kitchen is both beautiful and functional, with slate countertops, a Wolf gas range, a separate convection oven, and generous cabinetry, perfect for everything from quiet mornings to hosting with ease. A first-floor bedroom suite with a recently updated bath and dressing room offers flexibility for guests or private living. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms and a bright, open hall provide comfortable accommodations, each space filled with natural light and views of the countryside. Outdoor living is where this property truly shines. Expansive porches and a stunning enclosed back porch create year-round spaces to relax, entertain, and take in the peaceful setting. Of course, summer days are best spent by the in-ground pool, while evenings around the firepit feel like something out of a Kentucky postcard. The property is equally suited for a refined mini farm or an inspired lifestyle venture. The equestrian-ready barn features three 12x12 stalls with modern systems, rubber matting, a heated automatic waterer, covered training or storage space, and additional shelter. Fully fenced pasture provides flexibility, while the newly built chicken coop with a contained run and automatic door adds a touch of effortless, modern homesteading. Whether envisioned as a private retreat, a boutique bed-and-breakfast resort, or an intimate event setting (with appropriate local approvals), this property offers many possibilities. Not just a home but a lifestyle rooted in beauty, history, and possibility.
