Summary: Welcome to the secret garden guest house in Old Louisville! Your own private getaway in the middle of the largest collection of Victorian homes in the country. This carriage house was built at the turn of the century as part of the Speed Mansion (the first house in Louisville to have a telephone) at the corner of Garvin Place and Ormsby. It has been fully renovated to accommodate guests looking for a little piece of the Derby City charm. The Space: Walk upstairs to an open floor kitchen/living room with lots of natural light, a nook dining area, and a large TV. Newly renovated kitchen includes dishwasher, oven, microwave, toaster, coffee maker and a range of cooking supplies. A bedroom with two twin beds shares a bathroom with a queen bedroom. Queen bedrooms all have white noise machines. Downstairs houses the master bedroom and private bathroom as well as a fully stocked laundry area. Guests also have access to a garage, if needed, where you can store a small, possibly mid-sized vehicle. A serene English-style private courtyard that is shared with both units is the perfect place to unwind. Solar walkway lighting illuminates the courtyard at night. Parking: The garage can house a small to medium sized car - additional parking is available for free on the street, which is a block up from the alley.

Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Mary M. 11 May 2025 Liked: Location Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy #### Basically ZERO communication We traveled to Louisville from Chicago for our son’s graduation. We are a family of 7, so we wanted a house to be together verses 2 hotel rooms. Amenities listed in description were not there as we arrived. We brought nice clothes for graduation ceremony and wanted to iron them after a 6 hour drive. An iron and ironing board were nowhere to be found. A toaster was no where. Oven mits were no where communication with host was crickets. He basically read our messages and we had ZERO response. I’ve never been so frustrated. The house has potential to be a decent destination, but amenities were so lacking.amd owner had no desire to help their guests out. ##### Mary M.
