About this property

Spacious Home in the middle of horse and bourbon country! Sleeps 8, firepit!!

You'll feel right at home in our Old Kentucky Home at The Knob! Tucked away in the middle of horse and bourbon country and minutes from historical downtown Shelbyville. This 3 bed/2 bath spacious home is the ideal location for everything Kentucky has to offer.

Enter the driveway to ample parking for up to 5 cars and basketball goal. Once inside you are greeted with an open floor plan and steps to a chef’s dream kitchen with large island, new Whirlpool refrigerator, Keurig coffee station, teapot, toaster, blender, and lots of pots and pans. The dining table seats 6 and additional seating at the bar for 3 more. The buffet provides a place to mix perfect cocktails or enjoy a glass from the complementary bottle of Knob Creek 9 yr Bourbon.

The living room has a cozy gas fireplace, 2 couches, including 1 couch with pull-out full size bed, large coffee table full of puzzles and games. Two leather swivel chairs provide the perfect place to watch tv or read a book next to bookcase.

Just off the dining room and kitchen, step outside to the large new deck with comfortable seating, overhead string lights, and propane fire pit. Cook up some steaks on the new grill or play some corn hole in the large backyard.

Down the hallway, you’ll find a laundry closet with washer and dryer and a closet with iron and ironing board. The first bedroom has a queen memory foam bed, nightstand, large closet, dresser, and 40” flat screen smart tv. The second bedroom has 2 matching memory foam twin beds with attached reading lamps, a 40” flat screen smart tv, a tall dresser with PlayStation 3 for those wanting to play video games and and a desk for those needing a space to do some work. Across the hall, you’ll find a bathroom with shower/tub combo and linen closet stocked with plenty of towels.

And last but not least, feel like a king or queen in the memory foam king bed in the Kentucky Derby-themed Primary suite which comes with its own steps and en-suite bath with tiled shower, large walk-in closet, 55” flat screen smart tv, plenty of storage in the dresser and more room in the matching nightstands.

Sleeps 8 in total.

If your passion is outdoors, look no further than Guist Creek Lake. This hidden gem is packed with wildlife and a nice marina to launch your fishing or ski boat and it’s right around the corner. We have plenty of room for the boat in the large driveway.

Great house in Bourbon Trail country!
We wanted to hit spots on the bourbon trail in Louisville, Lexington, and between. This house was the perfect home base for our bourbon trail experience. The house was clean, comfortable, and stocked with everything we could ask for to make breakfasts in a spacious kitchen prior to heading out for the day. Would definitely recommend this house.

Family fun on the Bourbon Trail
The house was beautiful. Very comfortable and they thought of everything you need when you are home away from home and provided it just bring food and drinks and you are good to go. I was there with my 3 adult their wives and my one year old grandson. We had plenty of room and loved the location of the house. Plenty of grocery stores and restaurants nearby and a beautiful drive to the Bourbon Trail. We all loved the decor in the house and that the lights were labeled. Low lights at night were a nice touch. Beds were comfortable and beautifully decorated. Everything is clean and new. We liked that we had a code to get into the house and my son who is very tech savy ran his blue tooth off the stereo so we had nice music playing and we played the games provided. We had a blast. We wished we could have stayed longer. The neighborhood is quiet and relaxing. We watched some movies and made breakfast and one night ordered food delivered. Plenty of pans and dishes to cook and even some fun cookbooks to read which I enjoyed. My kids enjoyed reading the Bourbon books on the coffee table as well. Thank you for the baggies provided!. You always end up needing them for leftovers and packing. When I say they thought of everything I mean everything. Laundry soap, dish soap, Hand soap, Even body wash, shampoo and conditioner in each shower. Those little things that other places may leave but usually do not provide. We noticed and thank you.
