About this property
Own one of Kentucky's most iconic historic properties. Located in the heart of Russellville's National Historic District, this extraordinary landmark is famously known as the Old Southern Bank of Kentucky; the site of the legendary 1868 Jesse James Gang bank robbery. Rich in history and architectural character, the property offers a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Kentucky's past while embracing its future potential. Originally constructed in the early 1800s and converted into the Southern Bank of Kentucky in 1857, the building has welcomed visitors for generations. Most recently operating as a successful bed & breakfast, it has become a sought-after destination for history enthusiasts, weekend travelers, and guests seeking a unique getaway conveniently located between Fort Campbell, Bowling Green, Clarksville, and Nashville. Included in the sale are three parcels, providing expansive outdoor space rarely found with historic downtown properties. The beautifully maintained grounds have hosted weddings, receptions, private parties, and community gatherings, creating endless possibilities for continued hospitality, an event venue, boutique inn, museum, commercial venture, or an extraordinary private residence. Inside, guests are immersed in the rich story of one of Russellville's most treasured landmarks, while outside they enjoy the charm of a walkable historic district with local shops, restaurants, and nearby attractions. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate close proximity to Lake Malone State Park, hiking, fishing, golf, wineries, and the area's many historic sites. Day trips to Mammoth Cave National Park, Bowling Green, and Nashville make this an ideal location for both residents and visitors. Whether you're searching for an investment opportunity, a one-of-a-kind residence, or the chance to preserve an important piece of Kentucky history, 296 S. Main Street offers a legacy unlike any other. Historic properties of this caliber rarely become available, so don't miss the opportunity to become the next steward of one of Russellville's most recognizable and celebrated landmarks.
