About this property

Cheerful and Cozy in the Heart of Chevy Chase!

Enjoy your morning coffee on the front porch Adirondacks or the bistro table of this quaint bungalow in the heart of the popular Chevy Chase neighborhood in Lexington, KY. Perfect for UK football weekends and campus events, Bourbon Trail outings or Keeneland Horse Track. The well maintained house offers ample space for up to 8 guests, with 6 on the main level!. Large master suite with fireplace insert and comfortable sitting area. Fully equipped kitchen ready for tailgate preparations! Walking distance to many local restaurants, UK campus, and fun shops. Off street parking for three cars.

Our home is walking distance to Kroger, shops and restaurants on Euclid in the heart of Chevy Chase, and Graeter's Ice Cream shop. We are also convenient to downtown amenties! Our favorite rerstaurants include Bella Cafe & Grill and Joella's, both just a stone's throw from the house.

The neighborhood is lovely to walk around and of course, the walk to UK campus and stadium is less than a mile! Perfect for a football weekend!

Kitchen features new stainless appliances, ample cabinet space, 4 seat high top table, stocked with pots and pans and pantry items and dishes. The house has a new hot water heater and central hvac system, equipped with a Nest thermostat. Full size Samsung washer and dryer are directly off the kitchen.

Bedrooms are tastefully decorated with comfy mattresses, lots of pillows and ceiling fans. Each bedroom has a nice sized closet.

Master bedroom is peaceful and relaxing! Fire place insert provides warmth and ambiance! Reading area allows for an escape from the rest of the house. Spalke shower and double vanity in the master area, supplied with plenty of shampoos, soaps, conditioners, and make up removal options.

We love dogs but need to know about them prior to booking! We will allow one dog, around 50 pounds, well behaved and trained and preferably not a bed or couch sleeper...but not a dealbreaker, as we do provide plenty of blankets and coverings for the couch and beds. There is a small fenced backyard, however it is accessed from the outside; no inside access to the back yard. We do have a $30 pet fee for approved pets. Be sure to let me know the details when you inquire to book! No cats or other animals permitted.

The house is equipped with keypad code for entry. We do not allow events or parties, and only registered guests and immediate family in town are permitted overnight on the property. Thank you in advance for abiding by this important policy! We strive to make our place a "home away from home" and appreciate your respect for our neighbors.

Chevy Chase Charmer
Another great stay in this cute bungalow for Keeneland weekend with family. Walking to Josie’s for breakfast has become a tradition, and it’s an easy drive to the track on race day.

An absolute gem of a house and host
This host was an absolute pleasure to work with. Exceptionally responsive and kind. Went above and beyond to help us with a mistake I made when booking. The house itself is in an amazing location and is beautifully maintained. We felt so at home. We all had plenty of room and had a great time. We loved how easy it was to find everything with it all clearly labeled! Do yourself a favor and book this one for your stay in LEX. You won’t regret it.

50th birthday/ bourbon trip

About the host

Hosted by Cathy Burke

Host profile image
My husband and I are travelers, close to retirement, and some would call us nomads! We just opened our 3rd vacation rental...all in cities we love....Lexington, Asheville, and Chattanooga! Soon to open, one in Charlotte. Our home base is in Cincinnati and we truly love our hometown city just as much!

Why they chose this property

The Lexington home is perfect for your gatherings. We have never accually lived in Lexington, but our kids attended college there...I especially love going to this house for my getaway retreat for just a few days! It's comfortable, convenient, spacious yet cozy, quiet...I love the front porch adirondacks and drink my coffee out there almost every day, weather permitting...sometimes even in the rain!
