Beechwood Village
Cape Cod and Ranch homes with fireplaces
Homes in this neighborhood tend to be Ranch or Cape Cod, with a few Regency-style homes built around 1950. Regency homes are less common, but range between $300,000 and $400,000. Brick Ranch homes built around 1955 with two bedrooms can begin around $220,000 and reach upwards to almost $400,000 for a three bedroom. Most of the Ranch homes will also have either a wood or electric fireplace in the living room. Cape Cod homes with classic dormer windows either in the front or the back of the home cost between $380,000 and almost $420,000. With a median price of $382,500, residents can enjoy quiet roads, no sidewalks and lots of shade from mature trees. Some homes have single or two-car garages, while others will have only a carport or a driveway. For homes with garages, parking is often located behind the house in a separate building.Montessori program and opportunity to earn college credits
Children in the neighborhood can attend preschool through fifth grade at the Chenoweth Elementary School, that scored a B- on Niche and has a student-teacher ratio of 15-to-1. They can then move on to Westport Middle School, that received a C+ from Niche. Westport students can take part in the Montessori Program, which proposes that the ideal learning atmosphere is one where students learn at their own pace. After finishing up eighth grade at the middle school, students can graduate from Waggener High School, that received a C on Niche. Waggener has a College NoW Program, that allows them to earn college credit through local universities, such as University of Kentucky and Western Kentucky University.Community park with batting cages
St. Matthew’s Community Park, bordering the southeastern border of the neighborhood with 45.8 acres, has several baseball fields, but most of them are closed to the public. “People can absolutely reserve them, but we do direct most people to Warwick Park,” says Kenan Stratman, Director of Public Works for the city of St. Matthews. The Community Park also has batting cages that people can use from the spring to the fall so long as there are no league events occurring. Warwick Park, just over two miles from the neighborhood, is spread over 8.4 acres and includes playgrounds, a covered pavilion and baseball diamonds.Two shopping centers within two miles
Along Shelbyville Road to the south of the neighborhood, residents can enjoy local restaurants, including Plehn’s Bakery, open since 1924, and Lou Lou Food & Drink, which offers Southern dishes with influences from Italy and New Orleans including Cajun crawfish linguini and jambalaya. When retail therapy calls, Mall St. Matthews and Oxmoor Center are less than two miles to the south, providing residents easy access to stores such as Dillard’s, Kohl’s and DICK’s Sporting Goods. The two shopping malls are across the Expressway from each other and have a combined total of 240 stores.Close to expressway and some public transportation
Beechwood Village is right next to the Watterson Expressway and Shelbyville Road, so some residents in the northeastern section of the neighborhood may hear a lot of traffic. While most residents own cars, the Transit Authority River City has bus stops surrounding the neighborhood. Louisville International Airport is a little over nine miles away.Neighboring city events
The city of St. Matthews, which surrounds Beechwood Village on three sides, has annual events, such as, National Night Out with the St. Matthews police department. The Arterburn, formerly known as the St. Matthews Community Center until its renovation in 2022, is next to the St. Matthews Community Park and can be rented out for events like weddings and corporate meetings.Important to Know
Beechwood Village is about five miles from the Ohio River, so during rainy seasons residents should be aware of the possibility of flash flooding and a decrease in water quality due to a sewage issue that the city is actively working on.
