About This Home
Own a piece of Kentucky history in the heart of Harrodsburg! This unique property features the 1852 Federal/Greek Revival Muscoe-Garnett House, which is on the National Register of Historic Places. With original details like an intact Matthew P. Lowery mantel. While the 2,000 sq. ft. main house is ready for restoration, much preservation work is complete. Live comfortably now in the 2005 artist-designed Carriage House, offering a large open layout, vintage granite, custom stained glass, and flexible space for entertaining or guests as well as a 3-car heated garage/workspace. The property also includes a barn/garage with 2 stalls and covered porch, a beautiful stone cellar, and three vintage hand-pump spigots. Perfect for a Bed & Breakfast, short-term rentals, venue, or private residence with income potential. A rare chance to blend historic preservation with modern living.
All listing information is in reference to the Carriage House since the Historic Home has been vacant for some time. Over the recent years, the Historic Home has had tuck-pointing, window preservation and add-ons removed. It is ready to make new history! Own a Landmark! Live, Restore, and Create Income.
In Kentucky's oldest town and first settlement, sits a property unlike any other. This offering pairs a National Register-listed Federal/Greek Revival landmark with a fully livable, artist-designed carriage house built in 2005.
