779 Kings Highway, Waddy

Tucked behind a gated, tree-lined drive off Kings Highway, this 2002 farmhouse sits on 14.92 rolling acres bordered by working farms on every side. The stocked pond greets you at the front of the property. The covered wrap-around porch is the place you will drink your coffee from April through October. Inside, the vaulted great room opens to a fully renovated kitchen built for people who actually cook and entertain. Quartz counters, a custom wood range hood, double wall ovens, a farmhouse sink, butler's pantry/scullery, and a center island with seating for four anchor the space. The adjacent dining area holds a table for fourteen, and the gas log fireplace in the living room throws warmth clear across the open plan. The main floor primary suite opens to the rear deck & includes an updated bath with double vanities, walk-in tile shower, and a cedar-lined walk-in closet. The second suite, converted from the attached garage, adds a private bath and its own entrance through a generous mudroom and would make an excellent In-law suite, guest quarters, home office, or accommodations for in-home carer or nanny. Upstairs, three more bedrooms and a full bath share a loft that overlooks the great room. The walkout basement adds a family room, game room, full bath, and a finished office currently used as a fifth bedroom. The unfinished mechanical room could be finished into a full apartment. Perfect for multi-generational living. Outside, the saltwater pool sits beside a 24x28 detached garage with a full-length deck. A 24x24 barn and fenced pasture handle horses or livestock. The wooded creek corridor at the rear has produced deer every season. The front five acres yield hay each year. Shelbyville and Frankfort are 12 minutes in either direction. Louisville is 35. Lexington is 45. Feel the peace of country living with quick access to any shopping/commuting needs.
