About this property

Quiet home on horse farm, halfway between Paducah & Wickliffe. Close to 60 & 286

Built originally in the 40s by my father-in-law for his new bride, this home raised my husband and his four siblings. The property has been owned by this family since the 1880s. It was a general farm, then a dedicated dairy farm until the early 1990s. When the dairy operation sold out, we bought the home place and some surrounding acreage. My daughter and her husband now live down near the barns and manage it as an equine facility. We live a few miles away. The Redhouse is between Highways 60 and 286, easily gotten to from highway 2532(County Line Rd), which connects the two state highways. The house has a Ring camera at the front door now. No cameras inside.

Everything was so easy and just perfect. Breakfast and coffee/tea/juice were a great additional touch which we appreciated fully. Comfy bed and furnishings, too. It's so quiet out in this lovely country house, though not far from town either--just perfect!

Another lovely stay at this property while visiting family in Paducah. Very remote, quiet, surrounded by farmland. Fine for our purposes as we only needed a place to sleep. Clean, neat, comfy. Very happy rooster next door was a treat for us city folk to hear each morning. Many thanks for farm fresh eggs.
