About This Home
Step into a one-of-a-kind piece of Kentucky history—thoughtfully reimagined with over $200k in upgrades—on 5.75 scenic acres in Bowling Green. At the heart of this remarkable property is a two-story log cabin originally built circa 1805 in Glenns Fork and once owned by Dr. Charles Kelsay, a traveling dentist from the area. The original cabin was carefully dismantled, each log removed and numbered, then relocated and rebuilt here exactly as it stood generations ago. The main cabin offers 3,456 sqft with an inviting living/dining area anchored by a wood stove, hand-laid fireplace, wide-plank wood floors with an antique pine look, abundant storage, a fenced backyard for pets, and a 16x20 screened porch. The first level features a true primary suite with a private bath and classic clawfoot tub. Upstairs is a second primary-style suite with its own bath, two spacious 13x17 loft areas, and vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings. The second level is accessible by stairs or a recently installed elevator, and the entire home is fully handicap accessible—rare for a historic-style property. In 2001, a substantial addition added a large kitchen and approx. 1,200 additional sqft, including a private in-law suite with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, its own kitchen, two gas fireplaces, a bright sunroom, utility room, and a recently added fully accessible tile shower. Both the main cabin and in-law suite have new HVAC units installed within the last year. The entire property also features fiber internet and is served by Warren County electric and water. Need even more flexibility? A fully remodeled 2025 detached guesthouse/apartment adds another 902 sqft with its own kitchen and bath, plus a wood-burning fireplace. Everything is new: plumbing, electric, roof, windows, cabinets, septic tank, granite, and two HVAC mini-splits. Outside, you’ll find a 43x40 shop with electric, two carports, a single garage, and a large hay barn, plus at least 9 established fruit trees and a neighboring pond view with cattle in the fields beyond. With multiple living quarters—including an in-law suite and detached guest house—this property is ideal for multi-generational living or rental potential and was used as an AirBnB in the past.
