About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Historic Home in the Highlands at Cherokee Park.
Step back in time in a living area of elegant chandeliers, original decorated wood floors, and gilt-framed artwork. Taking pride of place in this restored 1900s duplex are impressive decorative fireplaces with pillared surrounds.
We take a lot of pride in this beautiful home. It is within a short walking distance to all major restaurants and entertainment and is in the hub of everything Highlands. Our home is your home. We hope you feel comfortable knowing that we are there for you as our guest and want you to have a great time in Louisville! Our guests have been perfect ... always taking great care while staying in our home and we appreciate it! We just love meeting new people! There are a few drawers or doors that are labeled "owner". Most are not locked, but we appreciate your respecting our space.
People-watch from the porch during iconic events such as the Kentucky Derby, with a neighborhood festival with live music on its eve. Admire the architecture en route to a memorable meal in one of this city's finest dining areas. There are many public options for transportation including taxi, uber, and the TARC busline. There are even horse drawn carriage rides, bicycle rentals and segways! The great thing about being close to Bardstown Rd is that you are within walking distance to everything you need. The most famous, or infamous, walk is the "Bambi Walk" which starts at the Bambi Bar ... then you just basically hit every bar till you reach Baxter Avenue ... or cry out "I yield!" The driveway can hold several small cars, but the city has limited us to one off street parking spot, so please use public transportation as much as possible. The best way to get around is by foot or uber. There is no street parking on Sherwood during "Sherby" (Derby Eve) ... so plan accordingly.
Other things to note This is a duplex and we also rent out the upstairs unit which is accessed only from an outside separate entrance. You can rent this as a full duplex thereby doubling the capacity! Please contact us to see how you can have as many as 12 people in this one location. Please expect to hear people upstairs, if you are only renting this main first floor unit. If we do not have a booking up there, we are happy to block it for you for an additional fee. The basement is partially finished with a large 75 inch TV and chairs, and the floors in the basement are heated in the wintertime for your comfort. The basement is being improved upon, but no work will be done during your stay.
