Before Bloomfield was Bloomfield, the area was known as Middlesburg, a small Kentucky settlement rooted in early frontier life and agriculture. In 1817, physician Dr. John Bemiss laid out and formally established the town, later renamed Bloomfield. Today, Bloomfield remains a historic Nelson County community rich in character and tradition. Standing on 2.87 acres just outside town, this 3,744 sq ft historic home offers timeless character and craftsmanship reflective of its era. This is not new construction, but a property with nearly two centuries of history and story. Offering 4 bedrooms, 1 full bath, and a detached 3-car garage, this property presents a rare opportunity for restoration, preservation, and ownership of a true piece of Kentucky history.
