We recently took you on a walking tour of Lexington’s remarkable collection of Richardsonian Romanesque architecture. This Mansion Monday, we have the chance to see what it looks like to live inside history — a rare opportunity to own a piece of Lexington’s rich story while enjoying the best downtown amenities LEX has to offer.

Built in 1892, this home in the historic Northside neighborhood seamlessly blends antique preservation with modern updates — from the gourmet kitchen to ornate bathrooms designed for contemporary comforts.
