Property Description

Step into the timeless charm of Boxwood, a distinguished historic residence whose story begins in 1830 and gracefully unfolds through nearly two centuries of thoughtful additions and care. Tucked in the heart of Covington, this 5-bedroom, 5.5-bath home blends architectural heritage with modern comfort in a way that feels both grand and intimate. A gracious foyer welcomes you through the home's original doorway, leading your sight up a beautifully curved staircase-just the first of many details no longer found in today's construction. Stained-glass windows, handcrafted columns, and character-rich millwork are woven throughout the home, giving each room its own personality and sense of history. The main level features the primary suite, offering convenience and luxury with double vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. You'll also find a cozy library, an elegant parlor, a formal dining room, and a well-appointed kitchen. The kitchen includes ample cabinetry, an island, all major appliances, and a wine cooler-perfect for everyday living and effortless entertaining. Upstairs, each bedroom has its own dedicated bathroom, providing comfort and privacy for family or guests. There is also a laundry room upstairs for added convenience. Outdoors, the enchanting Boxwood garden offers an intimate retreat with brick walkways and high brick walls that create a secluded, timeless atmosphere. From the back porch-complete with plantation shutters-you can enjoy serene views of this private oasis. Boxwood is more than a home; it's a living piece of Covington's history, thoughtfully preserved and ready to welcome its next chapter.
