Realtor Comments
Own a piece of Alabama’s history with this Italianate For Sale! Built in 1858 for Edward Kenworthy-Carlisle, the house is one of the best-preserved examples of Italian Villa-style architecture. The house was added as a National Historic Landmark in 2004. Constructed to allow maximum comfort with cross halls to provide much needed cooling breezes for summer days. The original kitchen was built behind the house and connected by a crosswalk. The house is a brick structure including all interior walls roughly 16 thick, 3 separate stairways, 3 wide halls, 7 major rooms down, 6 major rooms on 2nd floor, floored attic, both 3rd and 4th floor tower rooms. Vaiden airport nearby. There isn’t enough space here to describe this one-of-a-kind property that is also a functioning Arabian horse farm…must see to be believed. The property is also featured in Kathryn Tucker Windham’s 1969 Children’s Book, “Thirteen Alabama Ghosts and Jeffery”.
