The Largest Home in Kentucky Hits the Market: Check Out These Jaw-Dropping Photos

In Lexington, Kentucky is a house that looks like it jumped from the pages of a Jane Austin novel. Nestled in the Bluegrass Countryside instead of the English Countryside, this 24,252-square-foot mansion is possibly the most jaw-dropping home in the state. It is definitely reported as the largest.

I cannot even fathom what it would be like to live in a house like this. You know that billion-plus Powerball that is up for grabs? Yeah, this would go on my list! Along with a long flowing gown with a feather boa collar so I could waltz down the stairs dramatically anytime I wanted. Picture a glamorous movie star of the 1940s silver screen.

This massive mansion was built in 2001 and was obviously very much inspired by 17th-century Old English manors. The original owners who designed and built the home frequently crossed the pond on "holiday."

According to Realtor.com, listing agent Douglas Schuerman describes what it was like seeing the lavish abode for the first time, “When I first walked in, I was amazed, One word came to mind and that was ‘perfect.’ Everything in this home is museum quality and absolutely perfect … There’s nothing like it."

With floor-to-ceiling windows and mahogany throughout the 50-plus rooms, it is clear to see the owners spared no expense.

Especially if you look at the details. Even the doorknobs and knockers are gorgeous.

With three stories of 10 bedrooms, 13 bathrooms (8 full & 5 halves,) an elevator, gym, movie theater, game room, and an 8-car garage all on almost 11 acres of land.

There is even an entire guest apartment on the second floor.

The immaculately groomed gardens, tennis/basketball court, and landscaping are truly something to behold!

And that pool! Stunning. And totally secluded by trees all around, it has to be so peaceful.

For the low, low price of 14.5 million dollars, this unbelievable mansion could be yours! Seriously though, it is a little -OK large- slice of paradise right here in the Bluegrass state.  A girl can dream! Until I win that Powerball, a dream it will remain.
