Property Description
Set in the woods along a tree-lined private road in Prospect, is a unique architectural gem that offers the buyer sublime spa-like luxury living, privacy and easy access to nearby shopping, restaurants and the many cultural offerings of downtown Louisville. Built in 1979 by Louisville architect Robert Nolan for his family residence and situated on a wooded lot with seasonal views of the Ohio River, this California Modernist home was purchased by its second owner in 2021, and reconceived for use as his personal residence. After an extensive 3-year renovation, including an addition designed by Jeff Rawlins, principal of the award-winning firm Architectural Artisans, the home is now even more ideally suited to its one-of-a-kind setting and location. The current owner is a deeply experienced residential and commercial designer with projects located in New York and Los Angeles, as well as Louisville. His efforts have been featured in various publications and books, including In Style, The Wall Street Journal, Hollywood Life, Dwell TV, The Village Voice, Louisville Magazine, Los Angeles Magazine, Modern Houses of Louisville, The Critical Edge: Controversy in Recent American Architecture, and others. Renovations include a luxurious steam room with a soaking tub, shower, and sound system; an observation deck on the hillside under the tree canopy; a heated in-ground plunge pool with jets; a gas fireplace feature; a fully covered outdoor kitchen and dining area; a carefully curated outdoor lighting system; heated bathroom floors; a Sonos sound system with Klipsch Pro Audio speakers, among other details, which make for a genuine retreat without leaving the premises. This private haven is set back off Prospect's prestigious Rose Island Road, and abuts a forested conservation easement. For equine enthusiasts, an adjacent 2-stall barn and large paddock provides space for at least two animals. Professional landscaping has preserved the pastoral atmosphere of the property while maintaining its exquisite residential charm.
