Old houses hold storiesāand some of them apparently never leave.
For Day 2 of Lindseyās Old Houses After Dark series, sheās exploring one of Covingtonās most fascinating historic properties: the Baker-Hunt House.
After the loss of her daughter, Margaretta Baker-Hunt developed an interest in spiritualism and psychic researchāan interest that became part of the foundation she established here in 1922.
More than a century later, stories still surround the property, including an account of a woman in white reportedly seen watching from the staircase.
History, architecture, local folkloreāand 29 more allegedly haunted historic places to go.
Weāre only on Day 2, and there are plenty more old houses with stories to tell.

Some houses just have good energy ā and 507 Covert Run is one of them.
Original hardwood floors? Yep.
A covered front porch made for coffee mornings? Absolutely.
A fenced backyard? Check.
Partially finished basement? Also yes.
And the kind of charm that makes you start mentally arranging your furniture before youāve even finished the tour.
The kitchen has been updated, the basement has been professionally waterproofed with a transferable warranty, and the layout makes first-floor living easy.
Basically: cute, comfortable, full of character, and ready for its next person.

Want to see it in person? Send me a DM and Iāll get you through.
This 1920 Kentucky mansion feels like it was built for a Gatsby party.
600 Boone Avenue in Wi******er is packed with the kind of details that make old houses impossible to replicate ā monumental columns, a dramatic staircase, ornate fireplaces, heavy trim work, tall windows, and rooms that still feel designed for entertaining.
Itās one of those homes where the architecture keeps revealing itself the longer you look.
A huge thank you to listing agent Holly Goering for allowing me to tour and share this incredible property.
If you love historic homes, old-house details, and architecture with a story, follow along ā I have a lot more coming.

One of my favorite things about old houses is how much attention was given to the details we barely think about today.
Door k***s, escutcheons, hinges, locksets and iron railings werenāt just functionalāthey were part of the design. Victorian-era hardware could pull inspiration from Gothic Revival, Eastlake, Renaissance Revival and other popular styles, with everything from geometric patterns and scrollwork to foliage and even faces worked into the metal.
The hinge pictured here appears to include a foliate faceāpossibly a Green Man motifāwhich is exactly the kind of small detail that makes exploring historic homes so much fun.
If you love old houses too, or youāre looking for one of your own, DM me. Iām always happy to talk historic homes, help you understand what youāre looking at, or help you find the right old house anywhere in Ohio or Kentucky.

Thank you again Eric for the tour!
A tiny brick detail can make a big difference when it comes to keeping water out of a home.
Joe breaks down how a brick rowlock window sill is designed with a slight slope so rainwater sheds away from the window and exterior wall instead of sitting against the masonry and finding its way inside.
Itās one of those details you may never noticeāuntil itās missing or installed incorrectly.
Knowing what to look for on a homeās exterior can help you catch potential moisture issues before they become expensive repairs.
Some roofing wisdom with Robert Johns
Have questions about homes, roofs or the best fishing spots in town? Weāre here for all three with answers.
You would think by the third floor this house would finally start feeling less grand.
It doesnāt.
At 904 Juliana Street, the details keep going ā high ceilings, fireplaces, decorative plasterwork, original materials, and then a separate climb into the four-story tower overlooking Parkersburg.
That might be my favorite thing about this house: it never really stops revealing itself.
And after walking all the way through it, I completely understand why preservationists once wrote that Second Empire architecture āreaches its high pointā here.
Almost 150 years later, you can still see exactly what they meant.
& thank you so much to The Agent, Eric Corder for letting us tour!
In 1977, preservationists studied an entire neighborhood of incredible historic homes ā and pointed to this one.
They wrote that Second Empire architecture āreaches its high pointā at 904 Juliana Street in Parkersburg, West Virginia.
And from the second you see the mansard roof, the four-story tower, the massive front doors, and that staircase, you start to understand why.
This house stayed in the same family for five generations, and so much of the original character is still here.
This is exactly why I drive hours to see old houses.
And somehow, thereās still more upstairs.
Thank you so much The Agent, Eric Corder for letting us tour!
