Remarks
- Public Remarks
- A pioneer spirit meets keen Kentucky refinement at Halley Wood. Famed architect John McMurtry designed the residence ca. 1852 for Samuel Halley, an early pioneer at Boonesborough. McMurtry's plans incorporated a large, elegantly-columned façade, similar to Waveland, as well as a notable balcony. The balcony bears McMurtry's imprint with a cutout trefoil motif common to all his Gothic-influenced designs. Pilastered walls are arranged in the L-shape popular at the time. Today, the historic residence and its 18.2± acres are well-suited to modern living. The home's 4,959± square feet boasts 4BR & 2.5 BA. Preserved architectural details add grand appeal. Outside, a two-room brick building backs the farm and a tobacco-style horse barn offers five stalls. A 4+ bay detached workshop/garage supplies space for hobbies and storage. With its rich history, fine details, & manageable tract size, Halley Wood marks a rare opportunity. Its new steward will soon share in a rich Bluegrass heritage in a desirable Scott County locale. NB: The property has a Lexington mailing address and is only 8 minutes from Midway/20 minutes from downtown Lexington!
