Description of 800 Candlelight Ln, Louisville, KY 40214
Listing details for 800 Candlelight Ln, Louisville, KY 40214 : Welcome to 800 Candlelight Lane, where nearly 14 acres of privacy and possibility meet the convenience of Louisville living. The property spans 13.7388 acres across nine individually deeded parcels, the homesite plus eight adjoining lots, all included in the sale and reached by a private drive. It offers a rare mix of usable land, mature woods, a half-acre pond, and improvements that are hard to find together on acreage this close to the city. Public water and public sewer serve the homesite, so there is no well or septic to maintain. Whether the goal is a private retreat, a hobby farm, space for guests or extended family, or simply room to spread out, this property delivers. The main residence is a 3,389-square-foot farmhouse with four bedrooms, two full baths, and three half baths. Recent updates include new flooring throughout the first floor, remodeled first-floor baths, a first-floor laundry room with a dog wash, quartz countertops, and a GE Café refrigerator. Enclosing a former porch added living space, and one of the home's HVAC systems was replaced in 2025. The home also has owned (not leased) solar panels that offset its electric use and were recently inspected, cleaned, and serviced. It operates on LG&E's grandfathered net metering, the one-for-one kWh credit structure that newer solar installations no longer qualify for. Outside is where the property sets itself apart. A large in-ground pool anchors the outdoor living area, with newly built decking, a new pump (2026), and an updated filtration system. Wooded trails, open green space, and the pond leave room to explore, entertain, garden, or raise animals. A four-stall barn overlooks the pond, and a chicken coop completes the setup for hobby farming. The detached two-car garage includes a studio apartment with a full kitchen, full bath, and laundry hookup, offering flexible space for guests, extended family, a home office, or potential rental income. The standalone workshop is powered well beyond a typical garage. It has its own three-phase electrical service, rare in a residential setting and capable of running industrial-grade equipment that standard home wiring cannot. A 200-amp commercial-grade main feeds the building, with a dedicated 240-volt twist-lock outlet for heavy equipment and dozens of dedicated circuits distributed throughout, allowing machinery to be placed and powered almost anywhere in the shop. The slab is also plumbed for in-slab radiant heat, with tubing already run through the concrete, a visible manifold, and water service to the building. The costly, permanent portion of a heated shop floor is already complete; only a heat source and pump are needed to finish the system. The shop previously housed a full complement of professional woodworking equipment. For a woodworker, fabricator, machinist, restorer, or anyone operating an equipment-heavy trade or business from home, a shop built and powered to this level is expensive to replicate and nearly impossible to add after the fact. Land, infrastructure, and flexibility like this, within easy reach of shopping, dining, schools, and I-265, rarely come available. The property is served by public sewer, Louisville Water, natural gas, and electric service. 800 Candlelight Lane is ready for its next owner.
