About this home

Where the tree line ends, the rush of the world fades away. Spanning across just under 35 acres, this home is thoughtfully designed to harmonize with its surroundings, ensuring views from each room capture the scale and beauty of the property. From morning sunrises to quiet evening sunsets, experience an uncompromising connection to the land. An intelligent footprint defines the main level. The two-story great room provides striking architectural volume and soaring windows, connecting the open floor plan to the vaulted hearth room and kitchen. Built for efficiency and scale without sacrificing aesthetic, the culinary space features a stunning quartz waterfall island, double ovens, dual dishwashers, a 46-inch prep sink, dedicated appliance garages, and nearby access to a large, walk-in pantry. Encompassing 5 bedrooms and 6.5 baths, the estate unfolds to reveal a serene first-floor primary retreat, complete with walk-in closet and private access to the patio. The upper level graciously accommodates family and guests, featuring four spacious bedrooms, two private ensuites, and a beautifully appointed Jack-and-Jill bath. A finished lower level invites both wellness and leisure, offering a living space, game room, full bath, adaptable gym space, and a potential golf simulator bay. Beyond the walls, the grounds present a magnificent canvas with limitless potential. Fenced pastures—some already equipped with run-in sheds and strategic water access—stand ready for horses or livestock, offering the ideal foundation to design a custom barn or riding arena. For the luxury homesteader, a greenhouse, raised garden beds, and a wrap-around chicken run offer utility, complemented by a developing orchard. A secondary two-car detached garage provides additional storage and functional workshop space alongside other outbuildings. This private sanctuary is naturally framed by mature timber, abundant wildlife, and sections of the boundary graced by a quiet creek. 517 Aiken Road is more than a private retreat—this is the foundation for your Kentucky legacy.
