It is located within study area for routing of a new highway connecting Interstate 65 and Interstate 71 avoiding Louisville.[4]

It is up a small paved road which may have a gate and may be a private road, although Google Streetview filmed its way through at one point (but view of this house has been deliberately obscured in Streetview imagery).
