494 Cedar Place Dr Shepherdsville, KY 40165

The proud elegance of this appr. 9,300 sq. ft. architectural masterpiece--with it's welcoming wraparound porch, towering spire, and cylindrical turrets--hearkens back to that long forgotten age of expert craftsmanship and attention-to-detail, helping it's classic Victorian style feel right-at-home in charming, old-fashioned Shepherdsville! Stepping through the custom leaded-glass French doors and onto the bold granite floors of the foyer, you're immediately greeted by the elegantly-curved, carved-walnut main staircase, it's graceful ascent brilliantly illuminated by the striking crystal chandelier suspended above; should guests enter as you descend this staircase, you must forgive them for imagining they're on the Titanic, waiting patiently as Rose descends its own grand staircase to join them in first class. The foyer is flanked on either side by the formal dining and living rooms. Ahead, through the foyer and past the staircase, a wide threshold supported by ornate columns beckons visitors into the sprawling great room, featuring wall-to-wall Palladian windows, a beautiful gas fireplace, and double doors leading to the large rear balcony, providing a picturesque view of this vast property and the hills beyond.
