Historic District Townhouse in City's BEST Location

A perfectly located, modern town home located in the Cherokee Triangle Historic Preservation District. Less than 500 feet from a great restaurant, a great ice cream and pie shop, several casual restaurants, two coffee houses, three clubs, a health club and several shops. One of four identical, side by side, townhouses- each with the same quality furnishing and identical amenities (note- some minor details, such as rugs or chairs may vary).
Digital lock allows guests to let themselves in on arrival-- no key pick up required.
This three story condominium has two king bedrooms, two full baths, an additional first floor half bath and a full laundry. Flat screen smart televisions, wifi and gas fireplace are all provided.

It is 1550 square feet. On the first floor is the living/dining area with a queen sleeper sofa and dining table for six. There is also a full kitchen, powder room and a large flat screen television. A gas fireplace provides warmth and atmosphere in the fall and winter. On the second floor is a full laundry room with washer/dryer, a king bedroom and a full bath. The third floor contains an over sized bedroom with a king bed and a full sized sleeper sofa. The third floor also has a full bath with shower for two.

WiFi, cable and two parking spaces are all included. Parking is available immediately outside the unit or inside the gated parking area (accessible by the provided remote control).

Beds are made with top quality 400 thread count cotton sheets and four quality pillows. Kitchen is fully equipped with high quality appliances (gas range, stainless Samsung french door refrigerator, dishwasher, etc.) and fully stocked with flatware, dishes, pots, pans and standard utensils. Of course, there is a coffee maker and bean grinder (and locally roasted whole bean coffee), toaster, microwave and hand mixer.

Public transportation (bus and trolley stops) are located within 200 feet of the front door.

WE OFFER TWO CHECK IN OPTIONS:
1. Digital Self Check In-- Receive your digital door code by email the day before arrival. After letting yourself in the property, you must complete the Guest Arrival Form found on the coffee table. The form requires photo ID and credit card matching the booking name. Within one hour of arrival, you must transmit a digital image of the completed form to us either by text or email. Your information will be kept on file for the duration of your stay.
2. Assisted Check In: Available from 330pm to 830pm, we will meet you in person at the property to check you in and collect the Guest Arrival form along with photo ID and credit card information in person.

FAQs:
1. At check in, photo ID and credit card matching the booking name are required. For digital self check in, these are submitted digitally by the guest after they let themselves into the townhouse. Information will be kept on file for the duration of your stay.

2. Why can't we have more than 8 guests total in the home for just a few hours?
The Louisville STR ordinance caps the total legal occupancy of short term rentals based on the total number of bedrooms. Violation can result in the removal of our STR license.

3. Our townhouses are located in a vibrant neighborhood with dozens of dining and entertainment options within a short walk. Weekend nights can be lively. Each bedroom has a white noise machine for use by guests.

4. Pets or additional guests added after booking may increase pricing. If you check the box "I am traveling with pets", 1 pet will be included with your booking and our pet fee of $65 for one pet will be in the "host fee". If you have a second pet, there is an additional $30 fee. No more than 2 pets are permitted. Pets cannot be left unattended in the townhouse unless crated.

5. Please inquire about stays more than one year in the future prior to booking. Instant Bookings made more than 365 days in advance may not be honored and the rate may be incorrect. Please note that our minimum nightly pricing for the Kentucky Derby weekend is $1495 per night with a 3 day minimum.

Great location, well-managed property
This was a great stay and the property was so well-managed! Super easy to check in, everything was in great condition. Comfortable beds, and pretty much anything you need in the kitchen. The property was spotless. They provide white noise machines to mask outdoor noises, since it's on a commercial strip, but we didn't need them. Just note that you do need to climb stairs to get to the bedrooms. Deirdre was super-responsive to questions. Highly recommend.

Great Location
Loved the neighborhood and the condo was great. Beds were very comfortable and the sound machine kept out any unwanted noise from the street. The pizza place close by had fantastic food and service. We have a large SUV and had no problems backing into parking space. All good, would highly recommend.

Great property and neighborhood.
This was our first visit to Louisville and it did not disappoint. The townhouse was super cute and exactly as advertised. A comfortable, up-to-date living, dining and kitchen space, and two large bedrooms with great beds and on-suite baths made time in the townhouse worthwhile. But the location is what really makes the difference. Baxter Ave/Bardstown Road is a vibrant community full of restaurants, pubs, and coffee shops, all within walking distance. And it's a great property to satellite from; 10 minutes to downtown Louisville and 55 minutes to the heart of the Bourbon Trail meccas (Woodford Reserve and Buffalo Trace). If you like to walk, hike, play tennis or golf, you can find whatever you are looking for within a 10-15 minute drive from the property. And the property manager, Dierdre, was on top of it. 10/10!

Bourbon Trail with Friends
It was a getaway weekend with friends to experience the bourbon trail. Easy check in, great directions to locate the parking and check-in. Property was exactly as described- smelled brand new- had all the necessities. Perfect location, lots of great restaurants near by. The only downfall was the motorbikes from about 9pm-2am that were constantly racing their engine or cars bumping their music. Appreciated the white noise machine provided! Would choose this property again, everything inside was perfect!

We came into town for the PGA tournament but wanted to stay away from the hotels. This townhome was the best. Very clean, great location, secure and even better than advertised. We were able to easily Uber anywhere we needed too but could also walk to many bars and restaurants. Would definitely recommend.

Highlands Townhouse
We were greeted with a beautiful Derby arrangement of Lilies and Roses and Derby memorabilia. The townhouse was beautiful and well appointed. Arriving was confusing and parking in the gated area difficult. The neighborhood was loud and obnoxious with a bar and loud roaring motorcycles across the street audible most of the night. Police cars blocked the street in front of us so our only entry on Derby night was through the alley- kinda scary. Overall I hated the neighborhood which was sad to me because I lived close by on Cherokee 40 years ago and was surprised how much Baxter has deteriorated! Unfortunately I would never stay there again, but I do appreciate the efforts of the owner in welcoming us for our Derby celebrations.

This is perfect for 2 couples! Plenty of walkability and the neighborhood was not as loud as I thought it would be. This country girl still slept just fine. *if you drive a larger SUV parking in the carport is tight. Doable but definitely snug.

Great place
This property is just as pictured in the listing. It's clean and well stocked. It is great that it has 2 king beds with 2 private bathrooms so our two couples were very comfortable. Grateful for the little comforts provided that make this listing 5 stars: coffee/creamer/sugar, paper towels and sponge, 2-ply TP and extra rolls in the bathrooms, soft soap dispensers in all bathrooms and the kitchen, shampoo/conditioner/shower gel, nice quality towels and sheets, well stocked kitchen, off street parking. We were there during the week (and it was raining) so didn't notice any street noise from local restaurants. I travel with a white noise machine anyhow so didn't need the ones provided. The local scene looks like fun, it was nice to be able to walk to dinner each night. Easy check-in and check-out. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. One of the best VRBOs I've been in.

Great place but owner does require a copy of credit card and DL texted or emailed to her
Place and location were great! Accommodations as expected and everything worked that we used. PSA The owner requires a copy of credit card and DL texted or emailed to her with a contract signature saying you allow charges or disputed charges to be fully charged to credit card supplied and that everything is in working condition and acceptable within an hour of arriving. I was not comfortable with any of this and refused and got VRBO involved. This took no less than 20 text messages and a house visit from owner during trip. I reluctantly signed contract with some lines stricken and did not provide credit card. This was not clear in listing or rental agreement to me as the host suggested. I was told by VRBO not to provide this info and did not. I have never been asked this from any host/owner in 10 years of renting from 3rd party owner for rent sites. Place was great…. Rental agreement copy of credit cards and contracts after VRBO paid in full… not to my comfort level.
