Does your purrfect day involve cats and coffee?

Does your purrfect day involve cats and coffee?

Louisville has a lot of coffee shops and cafés, but this summer, the Highlands will get Louisville’s first ever cat café! Purrfect Day Café will open its doors this summer at 1741 Bardstown Rd. The café - part coffee shop and part adoption center - will serve a full coffee line-up, plus beer, wine, and snacks.

Patrons can play with and pet the cats, who will live and lounge in the café. Every cat there will be available to adopt through the Kentucky Humane Society. Potential adopters will see the cats relaxed and in their natural environment, so they’ll have a good idea about the nature of any cat they decide to adopt into their home.

So whether you’re a cat-lover who likes to be able to enjoy their company over coffee or you’re hoping to bring home a new feline friend, the Purrfect Day Café will be the place to be! The owners are hoping to open their doors this June.

Former Highlands Church Transformed into Luxury Apartments

When Your Home is Your Sanctuary

By BEA METTS, Agent/Co-Owner

A former Highlands church receives new beginnings as a multi-family apartment unit.

A former Highlands church receives new beginnings as a multi-family apartment unit.

Luxury apartments from upcycled spaces – you’ve seen it done with abandoned warehouses and industrial buildings. Now a historic church in the Highlands is joining the fun! The Sanctuary on Bardstown is a new, nine-unit apartment complex that used to be Calvary Lutheran Church.

The developers kept some of the unique details of the church, such as the beautiful stained-glass windows now artfully restored, but they converted the three stories into nine apartments and a potential restaurant for the high-end renter who loves a little history.

The Sanctuary on Bardstown has three studios, four one-bedroom units, and a couple two-bedroom apartments. Each unit has hard-wood floors.
