Hurstbourne Apartments for Rent

Hurstbourne a city in a suburban area of Louisville. It is one of the most sought-after places to live in Louisville. Its name is derived from two root words: “hurst,” meaning a grove of trees, and “bourne,” meaning boundary.

Hurstbourne and its original settlers played a key role in the settlement of the state. The area grew alongside the rest of Kentucky, and settlement began as early as the late 18th century. One of the first pioneers, William Lynn, chose to settle in the picturesque location of the present-day Hurstbourne Country Club.

The large spring that attracted Lynn to this spot flows beside the golf course’s tenth hole. Buildings from the original settlement still stand by the clubhouse. The clubhouse itself was built in 1928 as a palatial mansion for the family of two of Louisville’s most prominent residents, Mr. and Mrs. Alvin T. Hert. The 27-hole Hurstbourne Golf and Country Club remains one of the most desirable social and golf clubs in Louisville.
