About this property
Peaceful 2.5-Acre Retreat Near the City with Space to Unwind
Escape to a private 2.5-acre wooded cabin retreat just 10–15 minutes from downtown Louisville. Enjoy 3 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, covered porches, a firepit, wooded trails, and space for up to 8 guests. Relax among the trees, watch for deer and wildlife, or explore Louisville before returning to the peace and privacy of Whispering Pines.
Covered porches on both the front and back of the home invite you to slow down and unwind, with a spacious great room connecting everything in between. This central gathering space includes the living room, kitchen, dining area, full bathroom, and office — making it ideal for spending quality time together, sharing meals, or hosting special moments with family and friends.
The first-floor bedroom sits just off the great room and features private doors leading directly to the rear porch. Imagine waking up, stepping outside with a cup of coffee, and watching the morning light filter through the trees while deer and wildlife pass quietly by. It’s a peaceful, cozy way to start the day or wind down in the evening.
The second bedroom is upstairs with a large walk-in closet, while the third bedroom is located in the basement next to the laundry room. All three bedrooms offer scenic views, closets, flat-screen TVs, and storage for your belongings, creating comfortable retreats after a day of exploring. The first- and second-floor bedrooms each have their own private full bathrooms for added convenience.
Additional sleeping options include a sofa bed in the great room, an extra queen mattress in the upstairs closet, and air mattresses to accommodate larger groups.
Guests are welcome to explore short trails that wind through the woods, where wildlife sightings are common and nature feels close at hand. The trails extend across several acres and lead to an open field (utility easement) on the east side of the property, surrounded by scenic hills and Whispering Pines. There are neighbors to the west, but the spacing between properties maintains a private, peaceful atmosphere. Behind the home, the land drops down the knobs, offering beautiful seasonal scenery year-round.
You’ll be hard-pressed to find another property with this much space, privacy, and natural beauty so close to the city — especially at this value. It’s the perfect blend of comfort, nature, and convenience.
