Crestwood has experienced steady growth over the past several years. With such a strong reputation that Oldham County Schools have and Crestwood's proximity to Louisville, it makes Crestwood, KY a destination for those moving in to the Louisville area or those living in Louisville wanting to get out of the city. There are several private schools in Jefferson County and many have great reputations. Along with the great reps, they also have pretty hefty tuition bills as well. I hear every year of parents looking to move to Oldham County for the school system as an alternative to paying for private schools in Louisville.

Crestwood has 5 elementary schools, 2 middle schools and a high school. Camden Station Elementary, South Oldham Middle School and South Oldham High School are all on the same campus. Crestwood Elementary is on the other side of the railroad tracks and is the oldest school in Crestwood. However, they recently built an entirely new Crestwood Elementary at the same site and tore down the old building. Kenwood Elementary is one of the newest schools in Crestwood and is pretty much on the same campus as the others, but it has a separate entrance.

The next 3 are in Crestwood but closer to Lagrange and Buckner than Louisville. Locust Grove Elementary. East Oldham Middle School is on the same campus as Locust Grove. Just down the road is Centerfield Elementary

I have been working with several people looking for foreclosure and short sale deals in the $500,000 price range. There are several options out there, but when people are looking to spend that kind of money for an executive home, the homes we find are missing something they would want in a new home. It could be size, finishes, layout you name it, there seems to be an element that is missing from their dream home.

I have found a builder that understands today's real estate market and is competing with foreclosures and short sales with new construction without sacrificing quality.
