Do you love entertaining? As the former Kentucky Governor's previous home, you can imagine this home is fit just for that! Picture this...Your friends & family pull through the gate at the front entrance surrounded by 3.81 acres of trees & beautiful landscaping, they walk in the door to a two-story living room with an open concept that leads you to the kitchen/dining room. The hors d'oeuvres and spirits are surrounding the footprint of the sunroom that overlooks the inground pool. The glass doors are open and your guests flow from inside the home out to the pool deck while the surround sound plays the perfect tunes throughout inside and out. Outside, the pool house is open for guest to enjoy! The floats, sunscreen & towels are laid out & ready for the biggest pool party of the summer! As the evening winds down you take your guest out into the backyard, light the firepit & roast marshmallows as you look over the Kentucky river. The smell of brewing bourbon fills the air & the stars begin to shine over the river... it's time for bed. With 3 guest bedrooms in the home and the extra pool house space, there is plenty room for everyone stay. You are HOME!
