(William T. Barbour was selected to survey the town of LaGrange in 1827. LaGrange was laid out in a sixteen-block gridiron format with the courthouse square located prominently near the center of town.) In the 19th century this home served as the girls' dormitory to the Funk Seminary, a school and college that originally was founded in LaGrange by the Freemasons according to an article found on this home's history. Locals knew this home for years as a beautifully decorated seasonal storefront called "Christmas in Kentucky" and was also one of the homes on "The Spirits of LaGrange Ghost Tour". The distinctive brick pattern on this home is called "monk bond", a derivative of Flemish bond brick pattern. Inside find original woodwork, lighting, plaster walls, five fireplaces. NEWER Roof. 2 Central Air Systems. (one room has no heat/air). Beautifully treed, flat, fenced back yard. One-CAR Carport. The William T. Barbour House sits in the heart of downtown LaGrange, just minutes to historic Main Street shopping and restaurants.
