Welcome to North Garrard County! This custom-built rustic-chic beauty offers a wonderful blend of comfortable living, character, and Kentucky country charm on 1.57 acres. The open-concept main level is designed for both everyday life and entertaining, with a vaulted great room featuring maple hardwood floors and a striking stone gas fireplace. The kitchen offers custom hickory cabinetry, a large island/bar, built-in desk/office nook, and spacious dining area that flows seamlessly into the living space. Truly a GREAT room! With 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths, there is room for family, guests, and hobbies. Covered front and back porches, a deck, and saltwater pool create inviting spaces for enjoying long Kentucky summers. The finished walk-out basement expands the living space with a large rec room, bonus area, and a full bath, plus an impressive workshop with garage-door access. While currently used as a workshop, a previous owner utilized the space as a music studio. This area is an exceptional setup for a woodworker, craftsman, hobbyist, or anyone needing substantial workspace. For outdoor enthusiasts, the lot extends into a wooded area across the road that includes Rocky Fork Creek feeding directly into Herrington Lake just a short distance beyond the property line. With three nearby nature preserves and Herrington marinas, it's a dream. This isn't a cookie-cutter house. It's a comfortable retreat, creative workspace and outdoor escape all rolled into one — a place where you can make things, gather with friends, jump in the pool, explore the outdoors or simply enjoy having a little more room to breathe. Come experience this exceptional property for yourself!
