Presenting the ''Cyrus Wheat Mansion'' surrounded by the rolling hills of south central Kentucky...Circa 1844. The house was built by the man that put Montpelier on the map with the Post Office and the Montpelier Mercantile. The home has undergone several remodels and updates but still maintains the original beauty and charm of homes built in that era. There is original shiplap and tongue-groove ceilings plus three fireplaces, 2 are still woodturning and one has been converted to gas. Owner thinks the original mantels and hearths are still in place. The entry foyer features a lovely staircase with original handrail plus so much more.There are two primary bedrooms(one up and one down) with the luxury of modern bathrooms plus a third big bedroom and a third bathroom. The kitchen and baths have all been updated. The house features a large entertaining dining area with one of the fireplaces as it's focal point. The living room is spacious with another of the fireplaces..A room to the back of the house is considered a ''flex'' room... presently a laundry and extra family space which also features one of the fireplaces in the house. Outside is the colonial style front porch with. the grand columns flanking the front door entry. There is a large 1 acre yard with plenty of room for a garden and chickens. No known restrictions at this country location. The above ground pool is in the backyard for a quick cool down in the summer. This can be your "Sweet Home Kentucky". Come take a tour of the past and present all in one historical home. Conventional financing or Cash! You won't be disappointed.
