This well-appointed renovated historic Princess Anne style home with Tudor and Gothic styling in its trim was built in 1880. It has 3 bedrooms each with bathrooms en suite for up to six guests to spread out comfortably in 3100 square feet of living space in the main house and an additional 750 square foot entertainment carriage house adjacent to the private patio area making it ideal accommodations for a group of friends traveling together, families, business travelers, or small events.

You will feel comfortable and right at home when you step inside The Lexingtonian's beautiful restored interior furnished with items collected by the owner from his travels overseas as well as from local antique markets. All the modern amenities have been added for your comfort whilst maintaining the homes historic character and charm. Special features include a lovely all season sun-room, cozy fireplace (firewood provided), and open-concept kitchen/living space perfect for entertaining.
