Lakeside at Reding Farm is a master-planned lakefront community bringing homes, commerce, industry, and public parkland together in the heart of Kentucky.
Developed as a partnership of the City of Danville and its Economic Development Authority, Lakeside at Reding Farm transforms one of Danville's landmark farm properties into a vibrant place to live, work, and gather — anchored by a community lake and boathouse, a walkable mixed-use town center, and a network of parks and trails woven through the entire site.
From single-family neighborhoods and townhomes to an office village, gateway hotel, and a modern industrial park, the plan is designed to grow Danville's economy while protecting the character and green space that make it home.
Each district in the master plan plays a distinct role — together they form a connected, walkable community around the lake.
A walkable mixed-use heart with shops, dining, apartments, and public parking garages — the civic and social anchor of the community, steps from the water.
A community lake with boathouse and waterfront promenade, framed by the public cultural and park development — Danville's new gathering place.
Seventy-two single-family home sites on quarter- and third-acre lots, plus townhomes, apartments, and live/work homes — plus a community clubhouse and pool, alongside the Walker's Trail senior living community and its planned expansion.
A campus of professional offices and a gateway hotel at the development's main entry, welcoming visitors arriving from the proposed Perryville roundabout.
Modern industrial and light-industrial development areas with dedicated access — ready sites for manufacturers and employers growing in central Kentucky.
Existing field drainage swales preserved as natural park greenways, with bike and walking trails linking every neighborhood and district on the site.

Historic, well-connected, and quietly ambitious — Danville pairs small-city quality of life with a workforce and location that serious employers notice.
Danville is the seat of Boyle County and the heart of a region of more than 1.8 million people within a 60-mile radius. Just 34 miles southwest of Lexington, it offers quick highway access to regional markets and air-cargo hubs, with Norfolk Southern rail service linking directly to major freight corridors.
The community is home to Centre College — one of the nation's leading liberal arts colleges and host of two U.S. vice-presidential debates — and to Ephraim McDowell Health, a regional medical center serving central Kentucky. Boyle County was among Kentucky's first counties certified Work Ready, and its unemployment rate stood at just 3.6% at the end of 2025.
Danville knows how to bring projects across the finish line. Site Selection magazine has ranked it among the nation's Top 10 micropolitan areas for corporate investment four years running — first in Kentucky — and named it a Top Micropolitan again in 2025. Nearby, the John H. Stigall Business Center carries Kentucky Build-Ready certification and the Site Selectors Guild's Gold-Level REDI designation, with state funding in place to open 89 more industrial acres: due diligence done, obstacles removed, ready to build.
A revitalized downtown, historic Constitution Square, a growing bourbon-distilling presence along the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, and a nationally ranked school system round out a place people choose to stay — and businesses choose to grow.
Kentucky's first constitution was signed here in 1792, after ten constitutional conventions met in Danville to create the Commonwealth. Home to Kentucky's first courthouse, the first post office west of the Alleghenies, and the first successful abdominal surgery in 1809 — Danville has been getting there first for more than two centuries.
The Danville Boyle County EDA is seeking development partners, builders, and employers for parcels across the master plan.
Town center storefronts, restaurants, and upper-story residential; office village pads; and a gateway hotel site at the development's primary entrance.
Platted single-family lots, townhome and apartment parcels, and live/work product — serving one of central Kentucky's steadily growing markets.
Industrial park and light-industrial sites with dedicated access, positioned along the South Danville Bypass with connectivity to the regional highway network.
Work alongside the City of Danville and its EDA — with public investment in parks, trails, the lake, roadways, and entry features already envisioned in the plan.
