5800 Sugar Creek Pike, Nicholasville

The First Vineyard is the first commercial vineyard in the United States of America. This historic land situates you on +/-95 acres along the Kentucky River. The First Vineyard is uniquely positioned to allow for a multitude of business and recreational endeavors. Due to its location, zoning and conditional use eligibility you may have the opportunity to develop and expand in ways that few properties in the heart of the Bluegrass Region would otherwise allow--e.g. private resort, restaurant, distillery, event destination, equine facility. Approximately 22 of these acres are already permanently permitted for special uses. This property is equipped with a number of improvements: original cabin (1805), event space, tasting room, and generously sized lodge. With proximity to renowned distilleries, historic thoroughbred farms, and the City of Lexington, you are in the middle of it all. Enjoy the emerging tourism demand in this tranquil setting, with a story to tell and a promising future of which you can take advantage. Please be sure to examine the interactive map and other documentation to fully grasp the opportunity that this land presents.
