Rarely does a property come to the lease market that works equally well as a private home, an income-producing hospitality operation, or both at once. 450 Waterworks Road a 26-acre estate in the heart of Central Kentucky and it is available now for a qualified long-term tenant. Listing is an entire private Estate, not an apartment the Zillow apartment notation is an error.
The Property
The centerpiece is a 7,348 sq. ft. Colonial-style main house with 10 bedrooms, 10 bathrooms, 2 full kitchens, multiple living and dining spaces, and several fireplaces throughout. For a large family, multigenerational household, or anyone who simply wants space to breathe, this is private residential living at a scale that is genuinely difficult to find at any price point. The bones are historic; the systems and finishes are modern.
Surrounding the main house: a 1,200 sq. ft. guest house with full kitchen and bath, two 1,400 sq. ft. cabins with pine interiors, loft sleeping, full kitchens, and private back decks, plus two classic barns and three silos across the grounds. Those structures work as guest quarters for extended family, a home office or studio, caretaker housing, or hobby space or they sit quietly as part of the landscape while you enjoy the main house.
The Land
The 26 acres roll gently through a mix of tillable ground and fenced pasture suited for horses, cattle, hay, or simply the kind of open space that makes a property feel like an escape rather than an address. Walking trails, open green space, and countryside views in every direction.
The Market
For the tenant who wants to generate income alongside their residence, the setting is exceptional. The Bourbon Trail runs through the region. Centre College anchors a year-round visitor calendar. Lexington is 35 miles away. The demand for distinctive lodging, retreat experiences, and event venues in this corridor is structural and this property has the operational history to prove it, having run successfully as a boutique inn from 2010 to 2019.
Ideal Tenant
This property suits a wide range of tenants: a family or individual seeking a private estate with room to grow into; a remote professional or creative looking for space, land, and quiet; a hospitality operator or entrepreneur ready to run a boutique inn, bed & breakfast, short-term rental portfolio, or event and retreat venue; or someone who wants to live well on the main house while letting the cabins and guest house work for them. Equestrian and agricultural use of the land is equally welcome.
The Opportunity
A Colonial estate on 26 acres with multiple guest structures, operational history, and countryside views in Central Kentucky bourbon country.
