Sycamore Condominiums are located on the north side of Shelbyville Road (US 60) east of Dorsey Lane in the eastern part of Jefferson County, Kentucky. Neighboring cities are Blue Ridge Manor, Plainview, Douglass Hills and Middletown. The condominium complex is composed of eleven buildings consisting of a mixture of ninety ranch and townhouse units. Other amenities are a clubhouse, swimming pool, tennis court, and an administrative office and maintenance shop adjacent to the clubhouse. Construction began about April, 1976 and was completed by December, 1978.
On May 9, 1979, the Sycamore Condominiums incorporated into a city (City of Sycamore). Benefits derived from obtaining city status were protection against annexation from neighboring cities and eligibility for Insurance Premium Sur-taxes and Road Building Funds. However, the most important advantage was a substantial tax deduction of the monthly maintenance fees since a portion of the fees would be considered City revenue. To date, no other condominium complex in the State of Kentucky can boast this advantage.
