Overview

Description

Welcome to the historic Gary-Ellis House, a timeless residence nestled in the heart of Hopkinsville. This distinguished home stands as a testament to early 20th century Arts & Craft era with modern detail constructed of rare Bowling Green limestone. A broad front porch showcases the original lead glass front door with inviting entryway offering scale & details that cannot be replicated today. Generously sized rooms, large windows offer abundant lighting, three fireplaces, original hardwood floors with intricate inlaid details, along with beautifully preserved inlaid pocket doors. Also a third story bonus space waiting to become whatever you need it to be. The backyard offers potential to become a private garden retreat. Once home to a respected former mayor of the city, this house has been a place of leadership, conversation and community. Ready to be preserved and appreciated for its next chapter. This property is more than just a residence, it is a piece of local heritage.
