🌟If you're the one responsible for choosing the house, this is the kind of place everyone thanks you for later.🌟
❤ Because here, in this spacious 5,500 sq ft home, true connection happens naturally.
✨ What Makes Glencairn Knoll Different:
🏡 Two Distinct Wings for Ultimate Privacy: A true rarity. Grandparents can have the main-level master suite, while upstairs there are two wings to choose from with three bedrooms and the speakeasy, providing space and privacy. It's the secret to a harmonious group vacation.
🏊🏼♀️ Heated Pool with Auto-Safety Cover: The heart of the estate. Our 38-foot saltwater pool (with 8' deepend) is heated for an extended season, but the real luxury is the automatic safety cover. It's the peace of mind you need when traveling with little ones.

🌲 3.75 private acres—room to roam, breathe, and play

🏡 Glencairn Knoll Estate
Where Teenagers Actually Hang Out with Grandparents
From age 5 to 85, everyone finds their thing here. And that's intentional.
Here's what keeps happening:
"Our kids had a blast… we can't wait to visit again when we can stay longer." — Eric, Georgia
"The entire family—from grandkids to grandparents—really enjoyed it." — Sarah
This is a 5,500 sq ft private estate designed for multigenerational groups—large enough to spread out, intentional enough to bring everyone together. With two separate residential wings, everyone has space.
Four oversized king bedrooms with five king beds (and a queen pull-out sofa in the Speakeasy). Multiple hangout zones. Separate spaces for noise and quiet.
No one gets stuck with the bad room. No one feels crowded. No one asks, "So… what do we do now?"
Family reunions. Derby weekends. Bourbon Trail trips. Long-overdue gatherings.
🌅 A Day at Glencairn Knoll
You wake up. Coffee in hand.
Morning:
Rocking chairs on the front porch. Sunrise over rolling hills. Grandparents at the table with their second cup. Teens at the island. Little ones are already planning pool time.
Afternoon:
With a simple push of a button, the automatic safety cover retracts, revealing the sparkling heated pool. Cannonballs in the deep end. Loungers under umbrellas. Cornhole tournaments on the lawn. Someone wanders off to explore a quiet piece of Kentucky history tucked among the trees. It's one of those details guests talk about long after the trip ends.
Evening:
Grilling for the gang on a 38", 4-burner Blackstone. Outdoor dining. Table for 10 plus a bar top for 2.
12 seats. One shared meal that lingers.
Then karaoke echoes from the basement. Bourbon gets poured in the speakeasy. Marshmallows roast at the firepit. Conversations stretch longer than expected.
Night
Pool lights glowing. String lights along the fence. Night swimming quickly becomes the highlight.
After Dark
Flashlight tag across 3.75 acres.
Bedtime
Everyone retreats to their own spacious room, comfortable king bed, and private corner of the house. The main-level master includes a deep soaking tub and walk-in rain shower guests describe as "like a spa."
Most groups plan to explore Kentucky. Most end up staying right here.
Take another look at the photos—you'll see how the spaces flow and how easily the house works for a group this size.
