If you’re looking to buy horse property with acreage, choosing Kentucky is a no-brainer. After all, Kentucky is one of the most equestrian-friendly states in the country with over 229 riding trails, offering more than 1,913 miles of great riding. The state also has some of the best places to balance stimulating city life with wide open spaces for you and your gentle giants to enjoy.
Louisville
Louisville is home to the famous twin spire grandstand of Churchill Downs – annual host of the Kentucky Derby and eight-time host of the Breeder’s Cup . There’s plenty of equestrian culture to enjoy even in the off season at Churchill Down’s simulcast racing and the Kentucky Derby Museum.
If you’re looking for wide open spaces near Louisville, La Grange is just 25 miles away, and a good bet. Buy horse property with acreage in an equestrian community like L’Espirit, or venture off into the rolling hills and woods on your own and discover the equestrian properties waiting for you.
Lexington
While Louisville has Churchill Downs, Lexington has the best “behind-the-scenes” equestrian attractions. The “Horse Capital of the World” is home to the Kentucky Horse Park and is the heart of the Bluegrass Region that’s been known as the perfect environment for horses to thrive in. If you want proximity to Lexington and wide open spaces, check out Georgetown 16 miles away or Harrodsburg, 31 miles away.
Bowling Green
Bowling Green KY is a city of 60,000 and has a unique mix of wide open spaces and city life all on its own. It’s about a 2.5-3 hour drive to both Louisville and Lexington, too, making it one of the best cities in Kentucky to buy horse property with acreage. Plus, it’s just an hour away from Nashville TN, where the first American-born-and-bred horse, an Iroquois, won the English Derby, putting America on the map for championship horse racing.
If you’re looking for the perfect way to start your equestrian adventure in Bowling Green, Supreme Auctions may have the perfect property for you.
