5 bedroom house for sale

Overview

Be a part of history at 312 Garrard St. in the highly desirable, historic Licking Riverside District. We believe this home was built 2 years prior to the Civil War in 1853. It was eventually the home of Mary Florence Taney, famous author and community leader. It is an incredible home, loved and maintained by its current owner and local artist since 1985. This is a rare and special opportunity. It offers almost 5000 sq ft of living space. You will not believe the extensive millwork, the arched plaster moldings, the towering ceilings on all three floors, the 10-foot doors with 2-foot transoms, floor to ceiling windows with marble windowsills, 7 fireplaces, gorgeous pocket doors that work seamlessly, third floor cupola, gorgeous backyard and garden, original potting shed, one car garage, plenty of off-street parking and more. Years ago, it was converted into 5 luxury apartments without many architectural changes. The current owner was slowly converting it back to a single-family home but didn't quite complete the project. It could now easily go back to single or multi-family living. And it is all within walking distance of everything you love to do in Covington, Newport or DT Cincinnati.
