About this property

Southern Leisure Studio 101 at Historic Wallace House Mansion

Southern Leisure combines the character and grandeur of a National Register Historic Mansion with the creativity of Paducah’s vibrant Lower Town Arts District. Guests enjoy the architectural beauty and historic charm of the 1889 Historic Wallace House, thoughtfully paired with modern amenities and contemporary comforts.
Located just minutes from vibrant downtown Paducah, to enjoy local dining, galleries, cultural attractions, shopping, and near major medical and business center.

The property is enclosed by an original Victorian iron fence and historic gates, creating a distinctive private and secure residential setting. Guests enjoy reserved on-site parking, LED security lighting operating from dusk to dawn, and Ring security monitoring throughout the property.

Access to the Historic Wallace House and its grounds is limited to tenants and registered guests. The property is not open to the general public.

Southern Leisure combines Historic Charm, Modern Comfort, and a Memorable Stay in one of Paducah’s most distinctive historic residential properties.

Guests enjoy high-speed Wi-Fi, streaming-capable television, new heating and air-conditioning systems, and thoughtfully appointed interiors. Each accommodation also provides access to a private patio area and reserved on-site parking.

For convenience and security, the entrance to each unit is clearly identified with dedicated signage and accessed by a well-lit sidewalk leading directly from the reserved parking area.

Other things to note
Location, Convenience & Privacy

Some of the most compelling reasons to choose Southern Leisure at the Historic Wallace House are its exceptional location, convenience, and private residential setting.

The property is located just two blocks from the I-24 Business Loop, providing convenient access to Paducah and surrounding areas. Guests are also only minutes from the vibrant riverfront, Downtown Broadway, historic sites, the Carson Center, National Quilt Museum, art galleries, restaurants, shopping, and the creative energy of Paducah’s Lower Town Arts District.

For additional shopping and dining options, Kentucky Oaks Mall is approximately a 10-minute drive away, with numerous restaurants, retailers, and services nearby.

Beyond its convenient location, Southern Leisure offers the added benefits of a private, gated residential property. The Historic Wallace House is reserved for registered guests and tenants only, providing a more private and peaceful environment than a typical lodging property.

Guests are asked to observe quiet hours, use their designated reserved parking space, and respect the privacy and residential character of the property.

The host was so nice and our room was very clean. The are is nice with all Victorian homes and walking distance to many bars, restaurants, and shops. The only thing we didn’t like was how small the room was. Barely enough room to walk around since the bed is about as big as the room. Small shower. It had what we needed, a bed and a bathroom/shower. Disappointed it says it’s in an old mansion but the only thing you see is your room that has private access.

I love what you have done with a small space! Your studio apartment has everything that a person/couple could possibly need and so stylishly done too! The light fixtures are so unique, you must have shopped forever to find them. Very classy!Your Victorian home is lovely and located in a safe quiet neighborhood. In the parking area, everything was well marked and it was nice having a designated parking spot. I was so pleased to find nice drinking glasses - not plastic - tucked in the unit in the bedroom that surrounds the refrigerator. And thanks for the cold bottled water. Water taste varies from city to city, so my husband was happy to find cold water in the fridge. And thanks for the snacks. We were exhausted after our long drive and it was much too early to go out to eat. The kitchenette that contains the microwave is complete with plates, bowls, mugs and flatware. Everything we could possibly need to fix breakfast.The bed was comfortable and we slept well. The lighting was a nice touch so that we wouldn’t stumble in the dark on our way to the bathroom. And speaking of bathrooms, the shower was fantastic and the fan/heater made taking a shower on a cold morning extra nice. The hall tree in the entrance was convenient for hanging our clothes. It even has space for shoes! And lots of space for hanging clothes is scattered around the apartment.We enjoyed our stay and hope to be back next October. I highly recommend this apartment for a weekend getaway.
