THE STORY OF WORTHINGTON HALL Step back in time at Worthington Hall, a magnificent two-story Greek Revival estate that stands as a proud monument to Mid-Ohio Valley history. Built in 1845, this 3,325-square-foot home was the original homestead of Paul Cook. During the Civil War, Cook was a known Confederate sympathizer whose family became deeply entangled in the conflict. Of his six daughters, one famously served as a Confederate spy, operating right from this region. Tragedy also touched the home when Cooks son enlisted in the 36th Virginia Infantry and ultimately succumbed to wounds suffered at the Battle of Piedmont. Every room in this home echoes with the incredible, true stories of early American history. HISTORIC SOUL, FULLY UPDATED FOR TODAY While its heritage is deeply rooted in the 19th century, Worthington Hall has been meticulously reimagined for modern living. Pass through the grand entryway to find a fully renovated custom kitchen ready for the modern chef. Outside, the property transforms into a private resort, boasting a massive 20x40 swimming pool and a detached 24x24 heated workshop powered by an upgraded 200-amp electrical service. Nestled on a rare, park-like 1.75-acre lot framed by historic mature trees and adjacent to the desirable Fairway Acres subdivision, this estate flawlessly bridges unparalleled historic character with contemporary living.

It is the purpose of the R-2 District to conserve values in single- family areas characterized by homes on medium-sized lots typical of new subdivisions and to reserve open areas with a potential for such type of development by restricting new developments to those of similar character. Although the R-2 District is most directly applicable to relatively new subdivisions, it is also applicable in older areas either of similar character or of different character but utilizing medium-sized lots. This District is more permissive as to auxiliary nonresidential uses than R-1.
