Beautiful and Professionally Landscaped on 5.8± acres all gently rolling with an impeccable Southern-style house, a dozen white columns and a full front porch. This entire front yard has an invisible fence all in for you. Panoramic views of gently rolling, bluegrass land, with unlimited sky for sunrises and sunsets. Talking about landscaping and curb appeal - this home has a black board horse fence entry - all on 5.8± acres - with conjoining twin 5.8± acre tract available if desired - a big plus whenever you can acquire conjoining land - this is an option.
The entry to this immaculate 5,200± sf home is impressive itself with 2 story barreled ceiling and gorgeous chandelier, a home office, entertaining areas and Masterful Master suite - but the heart of this home is the Gourmet Kitchen, chocolate-colored granite counters, Stainless appliances, Double convection ovens, soft close drawers and all the features you'd expect in a Luxurious custom home. With a Pantry, lots of storage and of course... beautiful lighting.
Let's talk about what that Masterful Master suite is - how about a walk-in make-up room - vaulted, tray and lighted ceilings that is magical. In the Master bath you'll find tile floors, double vanities, soaking jet tub with leaded glass window and TV - yes, a TV over the tub. Walk-in shower, discrete water closet and also has a decorator-magazine and HGTV show-worthy walk-in dressing room - with its own 2nd laundry facilities. Yes, 2 laundry rooms - one by the garage door entry for general garden clothes and muddy paws - and one where most laundry is generated - the bathroom and dressing room. Luxe.
2 large bedrooms upstairs and a full bath with tile floors for the kiddos?? Overlooking balcony to the Living room - and to see who's out on the Veranda.
2 stone gas fireplaces - one in the open entertaining room on level 1 - and one in the entertaining level downstairs. Speaking of which, did I mention to you this is a Multigenerational house - all set up with a fully finished lower level that has a Poker Room - a fully equipped Kitchen with huge pantry, living room / rec room with fireplace. This entertaining level also has a second 'play area' for ping pong, pool table, videos or "D-all of the above". 2 more 'bedrooms', full bathroom, mechanical room and Golf Cart/Mower garage with overhead door - all heated and cooled. One of these lower level 'bedrooms' is currently used for a weight and exercise room. This is a serious and 'Mac daddy-ed out' walk out lower level.
You might be asking - what does heating and cooling look like for this 4-5 br, 3.5 bath house - all electric and bills are in the $250/mo range - a bargain because this home is built like a tank with its poured concrete walls and it is insulated correctly.
5.8± acres of gently rolling Bluegrass property with a beautiful stocked pond. There is also a 36' x 48' metal building, concrete floor and landing pad - which also has an RV full hook up.

“Love ALL of Brad's videos. This is the ugliest log cabin I've ever seen. Looks like a house by Crayola. Yes, we realize it's just paint and can be changed, but the mixture of mis-matched wood, flooring, fixtures throughout the house including the countertops in the kitchen is a nightmare. I'd level the house and put up a new build. Property is gorgeous. The house is HORRIBLE!”

“If you're fixing to purchase a home in your nervous about it I would highly recommend going with Ken. He makes everything seem like it's going to be OK, no matter what hurtles you come up against - he reassures you and helps you through it. After I purchased a home through Ken Garcia, I have recommended him to several other people - my stepmother worked with him during the process of trying to buy a home, my brother is working with him during the process of selling his home - Ken's definitely become the Alexander family realtor.”

“I just want to thank Ken Garcia as the Realtor and Brad Simmons, his assistant who I have known for years. Just coming in contact with them for the last couple of months, they have been the most gracious helpers I could have asked for. They have walked me through every step. Ken has called me and given me every minute of his time that I needed, and he has been most gracious as far as… giving me pointers, helping me to think of questions that I wouldn’t have even thought of. This has been a wonderful experience for me to buy this home at my age. And I just thank them very much. They are great people to do business with. The deal with the house; the house wasn’t even… I wasn’t even expected to look at this house. I didn’t even know it was for sale. I was not planning on looking at this house at all, didn’t even know anything about it. And Ken takes me to the door, and I say, we're at somebody’s house, we don’t need to be here. And he said, “C’mon, we’re going in, c’mon.” And it’s now my house. Ken took me to this house and then he helped me negotiate – it was easy, it went through, he helped me with everything that I needed to know, how to ask, how to do things. It was very easy and yet it rewarding on my end. So I just thank them again.”

“We live in Wisconsin and wanted to find a vacation home, closer to my family and to the college our son is attending. Finding an agent to work with us, being out of state and only available to come down on the weekends was challenging. Then we found Ken and he returned my phone call within minutes. He starting sending me information on properties. We started looking for property in Richmond, Kentucky in Feb 2015. After many weekends, and at least 100 plus miles in the surrounding counties, we finally in mid July 2015 found the home we wanted in Lancaster, KY and closed before the end of Aug 2015. Can't thank him enough for being so understanding with me. Thanks Ken.”
