Built in 1808, this historical estate known as Harmony Hall, is situated on 2.03 acres in the heart of Lakewood. First on the chain of title is Henry Clay, followed by 200 years of ownership by notable & prominent Lexington families whereby the home has been transformed from its original state of four rooms around the grand hall to the extraordinary estate it is today. The most recent and profound seamless addition includes a sunlit gallery with skylights and aged heart of pine floors opening to an East & West Wing. The East Wing opens to a kitchen designed by Laura Dalzell with all of the luxuries a chef could want, adjacent to a spectacular screened in porch with soaring ceilings. The West Wing boasts of a gorgeous primary suite with a fireplace, an elegant bath and Lexington's finest walk in closet. The gallery finishes with an iron-railed balcony which commands a superb view of the gorgeous sprawling yard. Next to the main house sits an adorable guest cottage, up to a hundred trees, & fully fenced exterior hardscape and lush landscape to create an unparalleled private and peaceful setting. This is the true diamond of Lakewood.
