Mike and Donna Millstead have been avid collectors over many years. They have sold their historic home in Lexington, MO and will be relocating. Take a walk in the past and enjoy all these historic treasures.

Information about the home below. There is a lot of Pony Express collectibles.

Built in 1845 and steeped in rich history, this unique property has been meticulously cared for by the sellers, preserving its timeless beauty while incorporating all the modern conveniences you could want. Let’s take a step back to 1845, when William H. Russell—one of the founding fathers of the Pony Express—chose this very spot in Lexington, MO, to make his home. As you walk through the front door, you’ll be awestruck by the original hardwood floors that flow through the entryway, living room, dining room, and several other rooms throughout the house. The grandeur of the home is complemented by soaring 10-foot ceilings, each adorned with stunning light fixtures, including an 1800s Spanish fixture in the living room and a Seller's family heirloom in the dining room. As you explore, you’ll notice the incredible details that set this home apart—each of the 5 fireplaces features its own unique cast iron cover, with no two being alike. One working fireplace is nestled in the lower slave quarters, adding to the home’s fascinating history. At the back of the house, you’ll find the intact upper and lower slave quarters, complete with a ladder connecting them. The upper quarters showcase the original flooring, while the lower features the original wood ceiling and cast iron pots, offering a rare glimpse into the past. Storage won’t be an issue with a spacious attic that includes built-in shelving and floors. But the true magic happens when you step outside! From the screened-in porch, you’ll be captivated by the tranquil backyard—perfect for grilling, bonfires, or hosting unforgettable gatherings. Whether you’re sipping your morning coffee or enjoying a glass of wine with friends, this serene outdoor space will be your go-to spot for relaxation and entertaining. And for those who love hosting or have always dreamed of owning an Airbnb, the detached two-car garage features a charming studio apartment above, complete with a kitchenette, full bath, and walk-in closet.
