Description

Situated on four separately deeded lots comprising 3.76 private acres, with frontage on Wolf Pen Branch and River Road, Somerset is a remarkable 1931 Dutch Colonial Revival estate where architectural significance, exceptional privacy, and thoughtful modernization come together in one of the city's most compelling settings. A winding approach reveals a timeless residence surrounded by rolling lawns, mature landscaping, established gardens, and sweeping sunset views toward the Ohio River. Most recently,...Situated on four separately deeded lots comprising 3.76 private acres, with frontage on Wolf Pen Branch and River Road, Somerset is a remarkable 1931 Dutch Colonial Revival estate where architectural significance, exceptional privacy, and thoughtful modernization come together in one of the city's most compelling settings. A winding approach reveals a timeless residence surrounded by rolling lawns, mature landscaping, established gardens, and sweeping sunset views toward the Ohio River. Most recently, the outdoor experience has been further elevated with the addition of a limestone patio accented by gas lanterns—an elegant extension of the home and a natural setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. Inside, the character of the original residence has been carefully preserved while extensive renovations have introduced the comfort and functionality expected of a modern luxury home. A comprehensive renovation led by Louisville architect Doug Schmitt transformed the interiors, including a beautifully appointed kitchen with custom cabinetry, Carrara marble countertops, a mahogany-topped island, premium appliances, and hardwood flooring. Generously scaled living spaces showcase the craftsmanship and architectural detail found throughout the home. The impressive great room spans more than 36 feet and features 9-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, and a striking antique Italian marble mantel. Additional renovations expanded the home's versatility with a beautifully finished third floor offering a spacious bonus room and full bath, while the lower level provides a comfortable entertainment and media space, updated laundry room, and half bath. A whole-house generator provides additional peace of mind. Beyond the residence, the acreage is an increasingly rare offering in this location. Terraced gardens, mature plantings, expansive lawn, play space, and a detached two-car garage create the atmosphere of a private country estate within minutes of the city. The property's story is equally distinctive. Historically known as the Taylor/Chandler House, Somerset is recognized among the Country Estates of Historic River Road. The home was completed in 1931 by James Taylor, a notable builder and founder of the Harrods Creek neighborhood. Somerset is more than a residence—it is a rare opportunity to steward one of River Road's historic country estates while enjoying nearly four acres of privacy, beautifully evolved interiors, and a setting that would be extraordinarily difficult to recreate today.
