WOODHOME was constructed by US Sen. Garrett Davis beginning in 1838. The five-bay Georgian estate maintains many of its earliest architectural features including a gracious façade featuring brick pilasters and Doric columns. Later utilized as a military academy and boys' school, the home returned to private use, christened THE LARCHES in the early 20th century by the Clay family. Large living spaces showcase fine Zuber wallcoverings and have been respectfully updated. A Robert McMeekin addition contributes, among other features, a light-filled solarium. Accessibility was enhanced by the recently-installed elevator. The well-appointed interiors feature furnishings which may be acquired separately. Leafy grounds (25± acres) are characterized by privacy, as well as ancient trees & other heritage plantings. Architectural follies dot the landscape including a dovecote, greenhouse, and preserved koi pond. ''The Schoolhouse'' (4BR/4BA) enjoys its own two-car brick garage. The estate is only 15 miles off I-75 via the historic Paris Pike, and 18 miles to downtown Lexington. A conservation easement held by the Bluegrass Land Conservancy ensures a respectful future for this Bourbon Co. jewel.
