This 1889 Bell Court Gem is on the market for the first time in nearly 50 years! Situated on a large .4 acre lot, it is a gorgeous example of 19th Century architecture and craftsmanship in one of Lexington's most beautiful and beloved neighborhoods. The home's ornate details begin in the entry hall with exquisite woodwork in the doorways and on the staircase. Each fireplace (a total of 7) has its own beautiful and original tile in addition to their intricate mantle designs. There are four bedrooms and two baths on the second floor as well as a 'bonus room' that has been used as a walk-in closet. The large attic and full basement both give ample space for storage and still hold some original fixtures that will remain with the home. Behind the house you will find a barn full of vintage and antique treasures. With so many original features, including the slate roof, this beauty is ready for her next owners to restore her and make their own memories.
