About this home
Rare riverfront opportunity with panoramic Ohio River and Louisville skyline views. Located in Clarksville's Southern Mixed Use district, the site offers unusual flexibility for a custom riverfront residence, a townhome-style project, or a lodging-oriented concept built around the view itself. Two tenant-occupied residences currently generate $1,200 per month in holding income, with rents presently below market and room for adjustment. Minutes from downtown Louisville and the Ohio River bridges, the property anchors a corridor that draws visitors year-round with dining, entertainment, and the Ohio River Greenway just outside. Whether the plan is a signature residence or an income-producing riverfront asset, skyline frontage of this kind rarely reaches the market.
Clarksville, located between the Ohio River waterfront and I-65, is a commercial and residential Clarksville neighborhood with big-box corridors and riverfront green space. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around Veterans Parkway at Lewis & Clark Parkway, where shopping plazas, casual eateries, and steady traffic set a brisk, practical tone. Derby Dinner Playhouse and Clarksville Little Theatre act as cultural anchors with regular stage productions. Postwar ranch homes and newer subdivisions sit behind retail strips, giving streets a quieter cadence away from the main arterials. Lapping Park and the Ohio River Greenway add trails and open lawns for a slower pace. Clarksville Town Park hosts community events beside sports fields and playgrounds.

A rare piece of Ohio River frontage with direct, unobstructed exposure to the Louisville skyline. Zoned Southern Mixed Use, the site carries unusual latitude for what comes next: a signature custom residence, a townhome or multi-unit project oriented to the water, or a lodging concept built around the view itself. Position is what makes the parcel difficult to replicate. Minutes from downtown Louisville and the Ohio River bridges, the property anchors a corridor with year-round visitor draw; dining and entertainment at the north end of the Big Four Bridge, the Ohio River Greenway just outside the property line, and seasonal demand from Derby, Thunder Over Louisville, and bourbon tourism. Two tenant-occupied residences currently produce $1,200 per month in holding income at below-market rents, with room for improvement. Land with this frontage and this proximity to a major downtown rarely comes available. Buyers are encouraged to verify zoning, floodplain, and short-term rental permitting for their intended use.

Rare riverfront opportunity with panoramic Ohio River and Louisville skyline views — a setting that is nearly impossible to replicate on either side of the river. Located in Clarksville's Southern Mixed Use district, the site offers unusual flexibility for a custom riverfront residence, a townhome-style project, or a lodging-oriented concept built around the view itself. Two tenant-occupied residences currently generate $1,200 per month, providing holding income while plans take shape. Minutes from downtown Louisville and the Ohio River bridges, the property anchors a corridor that draws visitors year-round — Derby season, Thunder Over Louisville, the Bourbon Trail, Waterfront Park, and the Big Four Bridge — with dining, entertainment, and the Ohio River Greenway just outside. Whether the plan is a signature residence or an income-producing riverfront asset, skyline frontage of this kind rarely reaches the market.

SCMU
South Clarksville Mixed Use District
The regulations of the South Clarksville Mixed-Use SCMU district are intended to support appropriately scaled redevelopment in the South Clarksville area based upon the goals of the Towns planning documents. Further, these districts are intended to achieve the following: Sense of Place. A sense of place defined by human-scaled development consisting of a variety of high quality buildings and civic spaces with well designed landscape and streetscapes; Walkable Development. Walkable development that is comfortable, safe, and interesting for the pedestrian through the use of appropriately scaled blocks, an interconnected system with multiple choices for routes, and prioritization of streets for pedestrians and vehicles; Mixed-Use. Vibrant places with a live-work-play atmosphere, accommodated through a required mix of uses that activate internal streets and civic spaces during the day and into the evenings, and multi-story development that define the public spaces and create eyes on the street; Healthy People. Provision of outdoor space and activities and connectivity to regional trails and pathways to encourage physical health and wellbeing, as well as access to third places and social gathering places to encourage interaction and mental health support.; Sustainable. Development that promotes environmental sustainability goals, such as reductions in vehicle miles traveled VMT and greenhouse gas GHG emissions through pedestrian- and bicycle-friendly design and a low impact on stormwater quality.
