Welcome to Barret House – Your Perfect Louisville Home Base!

Whether you’re here to tour bourbon distilleries, attend a conference, catch the thrill of Churchill Downs, or just explore the unique charm of Louisville, Barret House is the ideal place to land.

Tucked in the heart of the Historic Highlands—one of Louisville’s safest and most walkable neighborhoods—you’ll be just steps away from everything that makes this city special. Here’s what you’ll love:
• A beautifully reimagined 3-bedroom, 2-bath home inside a classic Highlands duplex, offering space, comfort, and a touch of local flair
• Two fully equipped kitchens (yes, two!) plus a hide-a-bed and futon in the bright, upstairs lounge—perfect for families or groups
• Private parking pad in the back—a rare and welcome convenience in this area
• Only two blocks to Restaurant Row on Bardstown Road—walk to top-rated restaurants, breweries, coffee shops, boutiques, and more
• Quick access to downtown, the Bourbon Trail, museums, the riverfront, and beyond

A quick note: We thoughtfully combined two one-bedroom apartments into one inviting 3-bedroom space. One of the bedrooms is centrally located and a bit more open in design—it’s cozy, stylish, and thoughtfully set up with area rugs and throw pillows to create a welcoming retreat. And with two full bathrooms, you’ll have plenty of comfort and privacy.

Picture your group enjoying morning coffee on the front porch, strolling out for brunch, or gathering upstairs for a laid-back movie night in the open common area.

Barret House has Louisville charm, unbeatable location, and room to relax. We’d love to host your stay!

    Our host was excellent, he was very attentive and responded quickly to messages. The location was great with plenty of food that was within walking distance.

    Our family gathered in Louisville for an early Thanksgiving. Very clean and spacious two-level property. Two queen beds on first floor ( four steps required to enter property). King bed and spacious living room upstairs. Two big total bathrooms with laundry. Convenient parking spot for one car on property which is helpful due to busy road. Would definitely stay again. Love the neighborhood.

    Loved the location, very clean ,comfy beds. Would have liked more seating down stairs, since there is no living room. I would definitely stay here again. James was very responsive to questions and promptly got the A/c working again, when it went out. Very professional

    Hi. The Barrett house was super cute, clean and well stocked with comfortable beds. The house sits on a main road with a couple of bars across the street. It was SO loud at night with cars, people, music and even fireworks for no apparent reason. The bedrooms are right beside the window and it was very very loud at night. Great communication with the host but noisemakers or something to drown out noise would be a must for me to stay again. Thanks.

    We had a great stay and loved the house! James was easy to communicate with and made sure we had everything we needed. The house was clean and kitchen was stocked with snacks, coffee, and water bottles.We were a bit surprised to find that one of the bedrooms is just a queen bed in the down stairs common area (the house is split into 2 separate identical units). Luckily this wasn’t a big issue for our group, but the couple in that “bedroom” didn’t have much privacy. We enjoyed walking to the bars and restaurants nearby even in the cold weather!

    I am not able to fully rate the property, since we were unable to stay here due to the significant snowfall in Louisville. Despite that, I did want to pass along praise for the host, James! He was a great communicator throughout and incredibly helpful in every way! 5 stars for James and I hope to return and stay at this property and explore Louisville (without snow!!) in the future!

    The stay was exactly what I was looking for with my group. Owner/manager was very prompt in communicating and generous by giving us a late checkout. Would stay again

    Booked the Barrett House based on location and comments from previous guests. The accommodations were perfect for 3 couples or 6 friends as long as you don’t mind walking past one of the beds to get to the bathroom downstairs. Very Clean and the beds were extremely comfortable. It would be helpful to get a few new toasters and a few frying pans, but otherwise well equipped! I would highly recommend the Barrett House.
