In the heart of the quaint resort town of Lexington, the magnificent Queen of Lexington, known as "The Macksey House" is now available. This Majestic Historic Landmark with its timeless beauty has been admired by thousands of visitors to Lexington. With its historic background dating back to 1890, much of the original character of this Queen Anne Victorian has been preserved and well-maintained over the years. Five bedrooms and three baths in this 3,600 square-foot home is filled with charm. Sitting on almost an acre of pristine gardens and a sugar-sand beach, within the Village of Lexington, the Macksey house has been, and continues to be, a historic landmark on the shore of Lake Huron. There is a main-floor bedroom and bath with the remaining 4 bedrooms and 2 other baths located on the second floor. The climb to the third floor presents ideal space for a Kids' Den, Library, Hobby or Gaming Retreat. The home is listed on two historic registers and most of the ornate woodwork is original with the gorgeous wood flooring that was installed per the Victorian decorating norms (floor coverings with fine wood edges) on the main floor. A Generac whole-house generator, and an attached 2-car garage add to the convenience of living here. Appliances are included in the sale and much of the furniture and antiques can be purchased separately. A July estate sale is planned. See History Brochure in Documents.
