Photos and Description of the Lexington vacation house rental 3 Bedrooms - 2 Bathrooms - Sleeps 6-10

Visit our website at the link below for more info. Spacious 2 story brick home centrally located in Lexington’s Historic South Hill district is the perfect spot for Bluegrass area visitors. This unique home, built in 1908, is registered with the Bluegrass Trust for Historic Preservation, and is an intriguing combination of private retreat and downtown convenience. The completely fenced in back courtyard provides an inviting, peaceful venue for relaxing, and grilling out – but one has only to walk out the front door to discover all that downtown Lexington has to offer. This charming home has lots of character with 10 foot ceilings, hardwood floors and six uniquely tiled fireplace mantles throughout as well as 1st floor and 2nd floor screened in porches overlooking the courtyard and downtown Lexington. Other special features are a cozy seating area in the open, airy kitchen, and a coffee/ tea station in the office area located upstairs. A wonderful get away spot for old home lovers.

Review Submitted: January 12, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009
We loved the Martin House. We choose Lexington as our annual family get together in 2008 and the Martin House turned out to be the perfect location. The city setting made all the local attractions accessible, but the street and back yard were quiet and private. The historic home had plenty of charm, but was comfortable for modern tastes. We enjoyed every minute there and would definitely visit again when back in Lexington.

What a wonderful place to stay. The house is a perfect blend of past elegance and modern conveniences. From the special personal touches to the very comfortable beds - it exceeded all expectations. Add to all that the excellent location and you can plan to see us again!

The Martin House truly exceeded our expectations. A very clean, comfortable, and relaxing home in the heart of Lexington. The Bracken's were very gracious with the extra touches and were excellent with communication. We want to come back the next time the Bulldogs come to town! Thanks again for everything!

We enjoyed an amazing week at the Martin House. Jeanette and Paul thought of every detail, and then some. What a welcome we recieved with fresh flowers and chocolate chip cookies. Thank you for helping create the wonderful memories that my family will treasure forever.

We had a wonderful week-long stay at the Martin House. If I could transport this house back to Colorado, I would! It felt like we stepped into the pages of a Southern Living magazine. We really enjoyed the personal touches - fresh flowers, cookies, plenty of towels, recommendations for excursions and restaurants, etc. There were 7 of us at one time or another during our stay and we had plenty of space to visit, sleep, watch TV and spend time outdoors without bumping into each other. We'd definitely stay here again.
