I’m a broker/owner at Hawkins & Root Real Estate. I’m a wife, mompreneur, singer, friend, and I love selling real estate! I’m a lifelong resident of Lawrence County. I have four beautiful children: Carson, Kinleigh, Isabella, and Cohen. I’ve been married to my very best friend and partner-Kentlee for the last 18 years. I’m extremely driven, a true go-getter and admittedly a bit of a workaholic. Real estate has allowed me to help so many families through the journey of buying or selling. I enjoy singing with my husband, who just happens to be one of the most musically talented individuals I’ve yet to meet. Real estate has simply been a true fit for me. I live, eat & breath it and I love most every aspect. Marc Anthony once said, “If you love what you do, you’ll never work”. I have proven this true in my day to day. Helping others in their real estate transactions truly brings me joy! I have a past in the financial field and obtained an Associate of Science from Indiana University in 2003 and a later obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Criminal Justice and Homeland Security in 2015. Joining forces with my husband Kentlee was a longtime dream. His strengths are my weakness and we truly compliment each other. I look forward to helping you meed all of your real estate needs.

Meredith Lux

Broker 

I was born and raised in Bedford and have always loved the town. The people are friendly, and the community has a lot of potential to grow. I enjoy playing with my dogs, Gus and Otis, and spending time with my family. I also enjoy traveling to new places and checking things off my bucket list, such as skydiving. However, becoming an aunt has been one of the best experiences for me, especially since my sister lives right across the street. I love keeping my family close and watching how my great grandparent’s house has made a home for my sister’s new family. I realized that watching a house become a home is inspiring and I want to be able to help others accomplish this. I look forward to helping the community grow!
