The Cox Mansion is located at 3500 Governors Trail in Kettering. It has 9 bedrooms, 11 bathrooms and is 15,388 square feet.

From a spiral staircase at the entrance to a massive living room with a custom fireplace, this mansion is the highest luxury in Kettering.

Additionally, this residence has been used as an Airbnb and hosted famous figures like Presidents Theodore Roosevelt, Woodrow Wilson, Franklin D. Roosevelt and Harry Truman.
