About 14113 Willow Grove Way
Here is a stunning, one-owner, custom brick home with a 3-car garage that sits on the corner of a double cul-de-sac in one of Louisville's most prestigious East-End neighborhoods, Lake Forest. This home offers beautiful hardwood floors, a stunning open kitchen with new granite counters and custom cabinetry, and an exterior masterfully designed by a registered landscape architect.
Upon entering the home through the grand columns of the covered porch, you are greeted with the expansive ceiling height in the foyer. This leads to both a formal dining room with updated paint and chandelier to your left and a den/office to the right. Immediately you feel the solid construction of the genuine hardwood floors and notice the casements and crown-molding that you would expect from a custom home. Natural light pours in as the home was strategically set with the front door facing the southwest so as to maximize each season's light. The family room is centered around a gas fireplace and has beautiful built-ins on each side and a trey ceiling. The kitchen has an open concept feel to it with its rich solid wood custom cabinetry, stainless appliances, pantry, and granite center island. There is a dining area with a beautiful bay window as well as a custom desk area that matches the cabinetry. Just off the living room you will find a beautiful deck that is perfect for hosting friends and family alike. It captures the afternoon shade and has a very private feel due to the wonderful landscaping this property offers.
Upstairs you will find all of the bedrooms and the grand primary bedroom stands as the gatekeeper of the other upstairs rooms. This primary offers a stunning vaulted ceiling, and no lack for closet space. The primary bathroom is fit for royalty as it has a separate jetted tub, a shower, dual vanities, a double layer closet, and the toilet is in its own space w/door. Continue down the hallway to the other three bedrooms complete with their own full bathroom and a small linen closet. One of the bedrooms has a large, finished attic flex space that could be useful for storage or a small playroom, and each of the bedrooms has a character of its own.
In the finished basement, you will find a large living room with a second fireplace. Off of this room there is a second room that would be perfect for an office or an exercise space. Beyond that there is a full bathroom, a windowless room that could be used as guest quarters, and a spacious workshop area with lots of built-in shelving, pegboard, and workbenches.
One-owner homes have generally been taken care of far better than a home that has changed hands multiple times over the years. This home was designed and built by the owners, one of which is a registered architect, and has been meticulously maintained over the years. The construction quality is phenomenal, and the owner even took care to add extra insulation to both the exterior and interior walls which helps utilities and sound. No expense was spared on the exterior as there is both front yard and back yard irrigation, and great care was taken to edge, trim, and maintain the curb appeal.
Lake Forest is one of Louisville's premier subdivisions and offers multiple pools, play areas, walking trails, tennis courts, and fishable lakes. Location-wise, it is incredibly close to all types of shopping and restaurants, it's very near the Parklands, and just down the road from Valhalla Golf club (PGA stop).
