About this property

Hillcrest Hideaway~ Charming 3BR + Private Cottage

Welcome to Hillcrest Hideaway, BNB Louisville's charming updated 2-story hilltop home with private backyard has its own seasonal cottage! Lots of space for everyone to be comfortable in this beautifully restored historic home in a wooded setting. Very desirable neighborhood that's convenient to Frankfort Avenue, downtown, Highlands--all the best dining & entertainment is just minutes away. Whether you're in town for business, a special event, Churchill Downs, or a Bourbon Tour, The Hillcrest House is a fantastic home base for your visit.

DETAILS:
The 3-bedroom home and 1-bedroom *seasonal cottage sit atop a wooded hill with lots of backyard decking and great views--an inviting private oasis that's perfect for relaxing and enjoying the scenery or having a cookout with friends. When you walk up the driveway from the street-level parking, you'll find an updated 2-story historic house that features a large living room, sunroom, formal dining room, fully equipped kitchen, and 2.5 baths, including a private bathroom in the double-bed room. The backyard *seasonal cottage has 1-bedroom with 2 twin/double bunk-bed sets, den, kitchenette, and full bath.
Two separate living quarters mere steps apart give guests many options for sleeping arrangements: the 3-bedroom main house used alone can sleep 11, with use of the airbed and futon/sofa bed, plus the seasonal cottage with kitchenette that can sleep 6, giving guests several options for sleeping arrangements. (NOTE: Local ordinances limit legal number of guests on property to a maximum total of 12.)

*(Mid-winter availability of cottage can vary due to sub-freezing temps affect on plumbing.)

PARKING: A 2-car garage plus parking spaces are available at street level. Walk up the driveway and begin enjoying this fantastic historic home.

Guests have access to the entire house, seasonal cottage, garage, and private backyard.

We like to greet you upon arrival to provide initial access. Once you're here, we will respect your privacy but are easily available to answer questions or give recommendations. We want you to have a 5-star stay!

There is a Kroger grocery store less than a mile west, along with a scattering of shops and small restaurants. And just a few blocks south is the historic and very popular Frankfort Avenue corridor, with so many great restaurants in all price ranges in both directions, and also unique boutiques and coffee shops. Worth exploring!

Downtown and EXPO are less than ten minutes away via side street or interstate. We are just blocks from the Frankfort Avenue corridor with easy access to Highlands and Saint Matthews, with all the shopping, dining, and entertainment those popular areas offer--definitely something for everyone within a short drive from this convenient location.

The left side of driveway entrance is shared with neighbor apartments, but the spaces to the right are strictly for The Hillcrest House. Guests have access to 2-car garage, a large parking space next to garage (best for truck or van), and the lower portion of the driveway for one car. (If an extra space needed, there is also room to park a car across the front of the garage.) NOTE: The 99-year old driveway is too narrow for modern cars, so just use bottom section.
