"Riverview at Hobson Grove was named due to its proximity to the Barren River. Construction of the hilltop home began in the late 1850s and was finally completed in 1872, becoming a centerpiece to the surrounding 400-acre (161.9-hectare) horse and cattle farm. The house has several features of Italianate architecture, with painted ceilings in two parlors downstairs, an oculus as part of the home’s ventilation system and a water recycling system, to provide water to the upstairs water closet."
