Cherokee Gardens Neighborhood
Cherokee Gardens is one of the wealthiest and most desirable neighborhoods in the suburbs of Louisville. The community is a part of ZIP code 40206 in Jefferson County. Lexington Road, Cannons Lane, and Interstate 64 are its boundaries.
The Cherokee Gardens neighborhood is in the Jefferson County Public School District. For elementary-aged children, Field Elementary School is very close to home. The local middle school and the high school are each just a short bus drive away.
This highly coveted area was originally part of a military land grant to James Southall and Richard Charlton following the French and Indian War. The neighborhood was named for the Native American Cherokee tribe who fought against the British during that war.
In the 20th century, this historic town was populated by many of Louisville’s most prominent residents. Many of the homes still standing were built during this period. Notable Louisville architect Stratton Hammon was the designer of several of these residences. The neighborhood includes a mixture of small subdivisions and sprawling estates with views of beautiful Cherokee Park.
An expansive park area lies directly across Interstate 64. It is comprised of Cherokee Park, Shawnee Park, and Seneca Park. Cherokee Park, in particular, is among the most-visited parks in the United States. This 409-acre park has a 2.4-mile jogging park that offers a stunning city view. In addition to the usual community park amenities like playgrounds and sports fields, the park is also home to the Nettleroth Bird Sanctuary, a fishing lake, horseback riding trails, a golf course, and a dog park. The Cherokee Golf Course is a nine-hole course open to the public.
