Description
Built in 1851 this home has been a part of Kentucky and Bardstown history since the beginning! Known as Ben Johnson acres, this gorgeous home has been extensively renovated to a new grand splendor. Two large parlors and a dining room that would hold even the largest of dinner parties. Off the large new chiefs kitchen there is a den. Just inside the front door there is a living area with closet that could be a 4th bedroom. The Primary Suite was just finished in 2021 it boasts the same 12 foot ceilings as the rest of the first floor. Its private bath has 2 walk-in closets, two separate vanities and the largest shower you will ever see! There is a Grand Foyer on both floors that is larger than many apartments. Stunning chandlers throughout. Although this home is large it feels cozy. At the top of the Grand staircase there is an impressive chandelier that can be lowered via an electric motor to the ground floor for cleaning and to change light bulbs. There is a beautiful private Pennsylvania blue slate terrace (approximately 20x35) that has a brick wall around it making it feel like a court yard. It is accessed of the back hall and close to the kitchen for entertaining ease. With over 3 acres there is plenty of room outside. The lot is very private. All new landscaping will grow to block it from the street as well. There is an outbuilding that is ready to be built out as you see fit. Make it an in-law suite, guest house, potential air B&B.
