Land with Home for Sale in Salvisa, Kentucky
165 Dory Dr, Salvisa, KY 40372
Custom-built in 2023, this private retreat lives far larger than its footprint suggests - 4,500 sq ft under roof across the main home, a full walkout basement, and a private guest apartment. The basement leads the story: with a full bath and warmed by its own fireplace, it's a blank canvas for a theater, gym, wine cellar, or second living suite. Tucked at the end of a cul-de-sac backing to open farmland, it delivers the rural Kentucky lifestyle without the upkeep of a farm - wide views, privacy, and quiet, all within 30 minutes of Lexington. The 3BR/3.5BA main home features a spacious living area with propane fireplace and a covered wraparound porch with outdoor fireplace and sunrise-to-sunset views. Custom stonework and a bourbon-inspired bath with barrel accents add Kentucky character. Outside: pool, hot tub, and landscaped grounds. A detached 2-bay garage with 220 service includes a private 1BR/1BA apartment - ideal for guests, family, or short-term rental. Minutes from the Bluegrass Parkway.
