About this house rental

Stay in a piece of Lexington history. This carriage house from the early 1800s appears on the city’s first map (1840), making it one of the oldest surviving buildings downtown. Its original character blends seamlessly with modern updates.

Right next door is the Mary Todd Lincoln House, buzzing again thanks to Broadway. Walk to Rupp Arena

Great area for walking the neighborhood which took us to the Mary Todd Lincoln home and we found an Opera House during our first walk. We went back to see a show that night which was an unexpected joy! We walked to some great restaurants/distilleries downtown as well. It was definitely a SMART home with artsy decor in an historic Lexington Carriage House. Enjoyed our stay very much.

This unit was phenomenal! We booked it last minute and was shocked it was available. It’s also the smartest smart house I’ve ever seen so if you’re allergic to technology…may not be for you but we loved it!
