Jefferson County Homes for Sale

Jefferson County is a beautiful part of north central Kentucky. Home to about 800,000 residents, Jefferson County is one of the most populated counties in the state of Kentucky.

Originally settled in 1780, Jefferson County morphed and grown into the beautiful county it is today. With the surrounding counties of Bullitt and Hardin, Jefferson features the most cities within this area, Louisville being the largest. St. Matthews, Newburg, Jeffersontown, and Hurstbourne are among the other larger towns.

Louisville is home to dozens of parks, events, festivals and more. The University of Louisville is the oldest city-supported college in the US and we are also home to the “Hot Brown” dish founded at the Brown Hotel in downtown.

The 1914 Belle of Louisville is the oldest operating sternwheeler steamboat in existence today offering tours and rides. The 6,000 acre Jefferson Memorial Forest is the nation’s largest municipal urban forest.  If that isn’t enough to get you going, Louisville is the home of the original Cheeseburger started at Kaelin’s Restaurant.

This is a beautiful place to call home with so many parks and unique places to see and things to do. Let us know if you are interested in a home here or selling your Jefferson County home.
