Property Description
Historic ''Oak Hill'' Estate in Lexington, Mississippi. Own a piece of Mississippi history with the exquisite ''Oak Hill'' estate. Originally built in 1875 by prominent landowner and attorney J.E. Gwin, this Neo-Classical home offers a rich tapestry of historical significance and modern luxury. Passed down to Gov. Noel in 1904, the estate boasts a storied past, including visits by Teddy Roosevelt before his famous bear hunt. The first floor features a series of beautifully preserved rooms:
A converted parlor bedroom with an added bathroom beside the fireplace. A potential guest room where Teddy Roosevelt may have stayed, featuring original marquetry and an early 20th-century attached bathroom.
A living room, formerly the library, with original bookcases. A piano room and a dining room with vintage swinging door leading to the original kitchen area. A third bedroom known as the ''blue room'' with an adjoining converted porch bathroom, small study, and TV room. The modern addition includes an updated kitchen with high-end appliances, a breakfast area, a family room, utility area, and outdoor decks with a kitchen. The stunning staircase leads to a second-floor primary suite with a spa-like bathroom, additional bedrooms, a bath, an office, and a foyer. The estate also features 8 original coal-burning fireplaces, a pool house with full amenities, sheds, a fenced koi pond, and a dog kennel, all set on 5 beautiful acres.
