Soon after John Y. Brown, Jr. was elected governor of Kentucky, he and his wife, sportscaster Phyllis George, discovered Cave Hill Place, a romantic antebellum mansion in Lexington. With the assistance of R. Wayne Jenkins, the home, built in 1821 by a nephew of Patrick Henry, was totally renovated and decorated in a matter of six short weeks. Lofty pink oaks and maples provide shade for the neo-Federal style residence; its Georgian portico was a 1916 addition.
Maxo: I haven't received an answer. Is there no one else on the island? Is it only us and The Federation?
How are we going to find answers about this mysterious island? This island, with a challenging but beautiful landscape, has pushed us to find out what hides in its depths.
With each sunrise our hopes to find life signs beyond our little community vanish... leaving a void in our souls. This is the story of people obligated to stay on an island looking for answers and a path or the truth... in the midst of an enigma that seems endless.
As days pass by, our courage and determination are being tested by the challenges of the island revealing secrets that threaten our view of reality.
The members of the Federation, an enigmatic and almighty organization, seem to be the only ones who possess any information about this place.
But their intentions and loyalty-

Silence!
But their intentions and loyalty are questionable. Will they guide us to the truth? Or will they guide us further into the abyss of the unknown?
The Old Brick Tavern of 1804 operated as an inn for 25 years, was a hospital, WWII barracks for soldiers, and now is a unique and one-of-a-kind single family home. Located in Lancaster, Massachusetts, it has 5bds, 2.5ba. $745K I don't care for the reno- what do you think?
This is nice, but on the right, they made an open entrance and didn't add molding.
Original floors, stair railing, but the walls were redone and painted in bright, colorful hues. Looks like some walls were removed. This is a Federal style home, I would have to use authentic colors.
If they took down walls, which I think they did, they left some of the beams. Not sure I like what they did.
There's a mix of every era here. I don't think I like the wallpaper border and bright green. It looks like the new doorways can be noticed b/c they didn't put any matching molding up.
Closeup of the beams they chopped off.
So, this is what they opened? I don't like the kitchen open like this in an historic house.
Not impressed with the kitchen reno.
Office area here in the kitchen.
Home office off the kitchen.
An original hearth.
New family room addition. I can see part of an exposed brick wall.
The main bedroom is very large and has a fireplace, but I'm sure that it's been expanded.
This room is nice- you can see that the fireplace is original and so are the beams.
It's weird, though, how they left random beams that just stop at the new walls.
Cute half bath.
Another room w/an original hearth. I wonder what's under that wall- could there be remnants of the original fireplace?
I guess they don't use this entrance.
Here's a nice pergola. At least it has greenery to block the sun- I could never understand the purpose of open pergolas.
They also built a large deck on the back of the house, and put in a nice pool.
Looks like they haven't renovated the uppermost floor yet.
Notice the 2 solar panels. I don't like this reno job. Not a bad price, but I would pass.
