The Sweet Spot! - Live Like a Local

Live like a local in Louisville’s most sought-after neighborhood for young professionals and families. Rich in history and packed with wall to wall entertainment; this neighborhood carries a premium price tag for its aspiring residents. This condo began life two decades ago as a single unit, but the owner purchased the property next door and gutted the entire second level to create the masterpiece before you! You will truly enjoy this home away from home.
No Smoking or Vaping Inside the Home!

NO Marijuana Smoking!! This condo is completely redone with zero expense spared; granite, Carrara marble, and high-end fixtures are placed thoughtfully and flawlessly throughout the entire space. A quick walk through will reveal that not a single detail was overlooked, from the wainscoting precisely executed in every room, to the beautiful and exquisite appliances, era correct hardwood floors, incredible built-ins, and intuitive touches throughout. Not to mention the master bathroom that just recently underwent a renovation totaling more than $30k!!! The living room has multiple seating areas and a large 55" TV equipped with Amazon Fire TV sticks. There are also two additional TVs; 1 in a master bedroom, and another in the kitchen at the Carrara marble bar. Mirrors are everywhere throughout the home and there are THREE showers (2 toilets, so 2.5 bath) so there won't be fighting for space to get ready for a night out. Don't hesitate, this is an extremely unique property to be available for short term rentals in Louisville.
This 3-bedroom, 2.5 bath executive suite was built for a king and queen, and includes TWO master suite bedrooms (and an additional guest room which is absolutely stunning as well), each of which has an outdoor balcony space. This place is +A CLASS, CLASS, C L A S S. Perfect for couples wanting a weekend getaway, solo travelers, or large groups, you absolutely will not regret a stay here. +1,500 Square feet and 2.5 baths absolutely assure space and privacy for all guests in parties of any size, while staying under one roof in Louisville’s most desirable and safe neighborhood. This condo is great for entertaining and small groups.


This condo is the entire upper floor of the building in the picture. There are NO shared spaces with any other occupants. Additionally, once you enter the condominium you there are no steps to climb up. The entire 2nd floor is on one floor with no additional steps.

All 3 beds are tempurpedic beds. They are very comfortable!

Central Hallway and Steps:
There are 4 steps with railings on both sides (see picture of the front of the building) before the entrance door to the central hallway. The first floor has 2 units and the second floor has 1 unit. In order to get to the condo on the 2nd floor there are 2 small sections of steps (both sections have 6 steps (handrail on one side and the wall on the other) (see picture). The hallway entrance is 36" wide and also the steps themselves are 36" wide. (standard size for steps). The steps are NOT steep and are carpeted. The central hallway is well lit and has been recently remodeled.
This condo is also very kid, infant friendly. It has door locks located on the upper portion of the doors in order to keep kids in/ out of certain areas. There is also a high chair, pack and play, baby tub, plug covers, board games and quite a bit more. Feel free to ask any questions.

I am available to you as needed! Please think of me as your personal concierge; whether you’re looking for the best Italian hotspot, great live music,or even antiques. I’m your guy!

The Walk Score for the Condo is an 80!

The Neighborhood:
St Matthews is well within Louisville proper and is the crown jewel of the city’s affluent east end. Extremely safe, lots to do; full of culture, art, & entertainment! You’re off the primary strip (Shelbyville Rd.) to ensure a very quiet and comfortable night’s sleep, yet close enough to the main drag that you can literally walk just about anywhere.
Nightlife within a 10 minute walk:
-Tin Roof
-Drake’s
-Gerstle’s Place
-Molly Malones
-Diamond Pub & Billiards
-Jack’s Lounge
-Saint’s & Skybar
Restaurants within a 10 minute walk:
-Del Frisco’s – Steakhouse
-Havana Rumba – Cuban
-Silvio’s – intimate traditional Italian
-Mellow Mushroom – Pizza
-DiOrio’s – Pizza
-Café Lou Lou – southern
Distance from other Louisville notable attractions:
-10 Miles to Churchill downs
-7 Miles from downtown, 4th Street Live, Riverfront, and the KFC Yum! Center
-1 mile to Crescent Hill / Restaurant Row
-within 10 miles of multiple distilleries on the Urban Bourbon Trail
-Less than 2 miles from shopping at Mall St. Matthews and Oxmoor Mall

Of all of our properties this one is really the most walkable, you can get out on foot and make it to just about anywhere you’d like to be in a matter of minutes! If you’d like to drive or Uber, both are extremely accessible, you won’t have a single issue!
***a note about early check-in & late check-out***
We manage multiple properties in the greater Louisville area and cannot accommodate early and late requests. It creates a logistical nightmare for us! Please be Super Guests and check out on time and plan to check in no earlier than 4pm! We are great at providing a wonderful guest experience, trying to think of every last detail you might need, however despite our best efforts we simply cannot meet the constant requests we receive for early check in or late check out. Thank you for understanding!
**When will you receive check-in instructions?**
You will receive check-in instructions with door codes and lockbox codes on the DAY OF check-in AFTER your property has been sufficiently cleaned and turned over by cleaning staff (that means you can check in whenever you receive your instructions). Why do you have to wait so long? Due to respecting the privacy and safety of both you and outgoing guests! We change door and lockbox codes every time, and we do not want to have guests showing up early when other guests are checking out, etc.

Please note, there are no shared spaces inside of the condo itself. The only area where there is potential interaction with other tenants is in the central hallway (see picture). Since there are only 3 units in the building and this one occupiers the entire top floor, it is unlikely that you will see anyone. This kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms and other areas are all private. Once inside of the condo there are NO additional steps.

This is a pet friendly home. There is a small one time cleaning fee of $50.00 for pets. We have water & food bowls in the home already. We love pets. Please be kind and clean up before you check out. If you plan on bringing pets, please pay the cleaning fee through Air/BNB's resolution center upon booking. Currently there is no other way to pay the deposit.

The coffee maker is a Keurig. We provide several extra K-cups upon every check in. We keep sugar and creamers in stock. This place sleeps 8

This is a Non Smoking Home. No Smoke or Vaping Inside the Home!
Pets - The pet fee is 35 per pet, per stay.


Cleaning up after pets is more time consuming for our cleaners.

- No Smoking in the Condo. There are 2 covered balconies off the rear bedrooms. One of the balconies has a table, 2 chairs and an ashtray.

Take all sheets, pillowcases, towels, etc that were used and place in the hallway next to the washer and dryer.
Parties and Events: this place is not set up for parties or events. Please do not plan a block party with lots of people. Your reservation will be cancelled.

You can park 3-4 cars at this property easily. If you plan on having 10 or more people at this house for a party DO NOT book this home. DO NOT Park in the GRASS or the neighbors driveways. DO NOT PARK IN THE REAR OF THE CONDO'S, THEY WILL TOW YOU!

Great base for our bourbon trail travels
The Sweet Spot was centrally located and made our travels east, south and to the city very convenient. It is on a very quiet street and the property is very clean and modern inside. The recent renovations make it a great place to stay. Communication with the property rep was outstanding.

great condo!
Our stay at the Sweet Spot was great! The owner is very communicative and helpful. the condo is very clean and beds were comfortable. The floor plan is interesting with no way to get to the master except through a bathroom or another bedroom. Living area is nice with a large TV , but a little small if you have more than 5-6 guests. Kitchen is large and well equipped. Nice area. We had never been to Louisville, so this was a little further out from downtown(felt more suburban) than we had hoped but still a great visit. Definitely recommend

The condo was close to everything. Beds was comfortable , bathrooms clean and location is perfect for food, entertainment. We went down to your a fee distilleries and all of them that we wanted to see was anywhere from 10 miles to 50 miles, and evening was great if we wanted to walk to places to eat or have some live entertainment. We will stay here again if we are going to be in the area.
