About this home
Where else can you find 10 flat, usable acres in Lexington with a ranch home, full walkout basement, multi-purpose barn, and A-R zoning—all in one incredible property? Offered to the MLS for the first time, this single-owner home sits in a special pocket of Lexington near the Iroquois Hunt Club and is conveniently positioned along the I-75 corridor between Lexington, Winchester, and Richmond. The acreage is level and highly usable, with mature fruit trees, abundant wildlife, and plenty of room to enjoy the land. A dedicated entrance to the barn makes trailering livestock, equipment, or recreational vehicles easy without disrupting the residence. The barn is equipped with electric and water, creating flexibility for a variety of agricultural, equestrian, hobby, storage, or recreational uses. Inside, the ranch-style home offers an open eat in kitchen, multiple fireplaces, built-ins, and a full walkout basement with heated below-grade living space. A screened-in back porch provides the perfect place to take in the peaceful surroundings, while the circle driveway adds convenience and functionality. This is not your traditional Lexington neighborhood setting. It is a rare combination of acreage, location, usable land, and versatility—with possibilities that are truly hard to duplicate.
