Welcome to Prospect

A picturesque, riverside community featuring large homes and spacious living.

This upscale community is known for its small-town charm. Those who choose to reside in Prospect are looking for bigger homes and larger lots, many of which reside on the river, offering up picturesque scenic views. Four beautiful parks provide ample opportunities for families to enjoy the great outdoors. Farther away from Downtown Louisville, this community offers more of a suburban vibe.
