We love the house we bought two years ago, but it’s easy to get wanderlust in this town with so many architecturally significant residences. We got the opportunity to privately tour one of our favorites yesterday. It sits on fourteen acres of farmland and includes a tobacco barn and a pond.
The home is Italianate style from the 1840s. You can see in this image it’s deterioration over the last few years. The shutters on the second and third stories are broken and falling off their hinges.
This is the view of the farmland from the second floor. Yesterday was such a golden afternoon. It was perfect.
And here’s the barn bursting with the summer’s crop. It’s a sight that makes this Kentucky girl’s heart so happy.
What did you do with your Indian summer Sunday afternoon? Do you ever get crushes on houses?
