About This Home

Perched above the sweeping landscapes of Cherokee Park, this remarkable residence—designed by renowned architect Frederic Morgan—captures a sense of history, architecture, and setting rarely found in the Highlands. Set on 1.01 acres with extraordinary views and direct access to the park, the property has been lovingly preserved by two generations of the original family since it was built in 1950, offering a rare opportunity to steward a truly distinctive Louisville home. Inside, the home reveals a collection of thoughtful architectural details, including a formal entrance foyer, graceful arched doorways, updated windows, and a beautiful marble mantel that anchors the main living space. The first floor offers a spacious formal living room, a family-sized dining room, a library, and a comfortable den with a wet bar. The primary bedroom is located on the main level along with a second bedroom that is currently arranged as a sitting room, accompanied by a primary bath and an additional full bath. The thoughtfully designed white gourmet kitchen opens to a cozy sunroom and sitting area filled with natural light. Upstairs, two charming bedrooms share a full hall bath, providing comfortable accommodations for family or guests. The beautifully landscaped backyard creates a peaceful retreat, complete with a sparkling gunite swimming pool with a deep end ideal for diving and a pool house that includes two dressing rooms and a half bath. Over the decades, the homeowners have carefully maintained and updated the property while preserving its architectural character. With its rich history, distinctive design, and exceptional location overlooking Cherokee Park, this home presents a rare opportunity to own a meaningful piece of Louisville's architectural heritage.
