When Elmore Just began building Persimmon Ridge, the #2 ranked golf course in Kentucky on the western edge of Shelby County, he had no idea what his dream would eventually become. Today the championship course boasts a prestigious neighborhood, a junior Olympic-sized swimming pool, two tennis courts, a playground, and a place for families in and around Louisville to plant their lives.
Unique to Persimmon Ridge are its spacious lots that successfully overlook the beautiful course without smothering it. The lots average half an acre in size, and the estate lots feature 1.1 to 5 acres of space and golf course viewing. Without sidewalks and streetlights to crowd and clutter its beauty, the neighborhood is spacious, allowing for a more natural feel.
Its newest addition, The Overlook at Persimmon Ridge, features five-acre estate lots, some of which overlook the golf course, in a beautiful separate entrance featuring a rock waterfall built from actual boulders removed from the land. 
Communities like Persimmon Ridge are rare in this day and age. Neighbors greet one another by name and celebrate holidays together through a fall hayride, a visit from Santa in December, and a fireworks show in July. Owner and developer Lawren Just even cooks dinner herself for participants of a yearly steak dinner scramble, where homeowners are invited to play a round of golf before dining together at the club house.
The location of this real estate gem is perfect for families desiring the spacious feel of privacy and nature while still maintaining convenient access to city life. Its location just off the Gene Snyder is within 20 minutes of anything a family could ever need, with shopping at The Summit even closer.
With beautiful homes and breathtaking lots available for purchase, Persimmon Ridge affords many options to today's home buyer. Lots start at $95K, and homes at $350K.
