Douglass Hills has older homes and greenery near Louisville
In Douglass Hills, quiet tree-lined streets branch away from busy local thoroughfares, home to many shops and restaurants. “We wanted to live here just because this neighborhood is older and established. Trees are a big deal in the neighborhood — like everybody gets bent out of shape if you cut one down,” says Meagan Moremen, a local Realtor at Breland Group Realtors with 5 years of experience. “I know many people are looking for older homes because those new constructions go up quickly, and people are wary of that.” Downtown Louisville is about a 16-mile drive east of the area, so residents can easily access the city for concerts and new restaurants without being in the active center.

Traditional and Colonial-influenced homes, condos and apartments
Cul-de-sacs with single-family homes spread out from central Douglass Hills like spokes in a wheel. “Since most homes were built in the late 1960s and early 1970s, you’ve got mostly traditional two-story or ranch-style homes. Almost everybody has a basement and is on about a quarter of an acre,” Moremen says. Many houses have brick exteriors and Colonial influences. Prices range from about $290,000 to $640,000. Condos in the area have a price range of nearly $100,000 to $340,000. Apartments can be rented nearby.

City and church parks provide playgrounds, pools and sports facilities
Bill Lile Running Creek Park has a playground in the area’s eastern region. Warren Walker Park includes similar play equipment, a walking track and a multipurpose field where farmers markets and annual events are held. “Every Fourth of July, we do what’s called ‘Thunder in the Hills.’ It’s a big fireworks thing,” Moremen says. “The park is full. There’s usually a lot of security, and almost everybody walks to it. Because we fill the park and the middle school is nearby, we fill up their soccer field with people and chairs just coming to watch fireworks.”
Douglass Hills Swim & Tennis Center is in Warren Walker Park. “The [city] has a big following for the swim team. Some people get annoyed because it brings a lot of street parking, but for the most part, everybody is very supportive of the team,” she says. Southeast Christian Church, a megachurch, houses the Southeast Sports & Fitness Center, which hosts sports leagues for youth and adults. Competitors can be non-congregation members.

Attending Jefferson County Public Schools and career-based learning
Douglass Hills is in the Jefferson County Public Schools district attendance boundary. Depending on their address, students are zoned for middle and high schools, although they can choose to attend a different school since the district allows inter- and intra-district transfers. All students must apply to an elementary school. Some kindergarten through fifth-grade students may attend Hite Elementary, which earns a B-plus grade from Niche. Crosby Middle School scores a B. Eastern High School receives an A-minus, and it offers career and technical education pathways, such as the business academy, with courses in marketing and logistics.

Shelbyville Road’s shopping centers, national chains and the cinema
Shopping centers like Stonefield Square with Mr. G’s Bar & Grill are located on Shelbyville Road. “Roosters is walking distance [from many residences]. It’s this chicken finger place that all the kids go to, so [sports] teams will meet there. Many families will walk there and sit on the patio,” Moremen says. Dorsey Plaza shopping center has fast food restaurants and St. Vincent de Paul Thrift Store. Many national chains, varying from Kroger to Barnes & Noble, are on Hurstbourne Parkway. Gustavo’s Mexican Grill is a regional chain on the parkway. Sam’s Club and additional restaurant chains are near Blankenbaker Parkway, about 4 miles away. Xscape Theatres screens the latest blockbusters nearby.
