About This Home

As of September 2020

Vacant and easy to show. Own a piece of Lexington history! Built in 1895, 7 Houston Street's Rural Gothic architecture features ornamental woodwork inside and out, high ceilings, heart pine floors, and one of Lexington's most unique, historic front doors. The stately two-story brick home includes five bedrooms (with potential for six), three full baths and a garage with a loft. Once featured on the Historic Garden Week tour, the home's yard is beautifully landscaped and the large, level back yard is surrounded by a privacy fence. Lexington's shops, restaurants and schools are just a short walk away.
