Germantown, KY - Homes for Sale

According to Family Realty in Louisville, Kentucky, Germantown is located between Barrett Ave and Eastern Parkway, with Goss Ave and Oak St serving as the main streets in the neighborhood. Originally settled by German immigrants in the late 1800s, the area was known for its small farms and butcher shops. In the 1890s, development took off with the construction of the largest collection of shotgun houses in Louisville. Shotgun homes are distinctive for their deep lot design, where rooms open into one another instead of off a common hallway. Today, many of these historic homes have been renovated to offer modern living.

While honoring its cultural roots, Germantown is also known for its vibrant dining and entertainment scene. Popular spots like Check’s Café, The Post, Nord’s Bakery, and Monnik Beer Co. add to the charm of this unique neighborhood. With a youthful population, Germantown remains a fantastic place to call home for all ages.
