Property Description

*Property description written by Laura B

It looks like many of Lexington's subdivisions built in the 1950s and '60s — landscaped entrance, wide streets, rows of brick and Bedford stone ranches, neighbors waving from front porches. But this is no ordinary subdivision - St. Martin's Village took the American dream to a whole new level in Lexington: It was the first large subdivision where African American families could buy a home. 'They were the crème de la crème for African-Americans in the 1950s,' said Porter G. Peeples, longtime president of the Urban League. 'You were somebody if you got a place in St. Martin's.' Most of the families that bought those original 209 homes are still the owners to this day. Nestled at the end of a quiet street, this home features an extra-large, fenced-in back yard lined with shade producing mature trees, two poured concrete patios, and a front patio too. Must see for yourself how well his home has been maintained and cared for. New carpet throughout, renovated bath, newer roof and hot water heater, an investors low risk, low maintenance dream for immediate cashflow. Located within a 2 minute drive of the new Amazon warehouse, close to shopping, Georgetown, and Keeneland.

What my client said about this deal

Our experience with LB was great! She was very professional, and easy to talk to. She took her time in learning the neighborhood. She was knowledgeable about what the houses sold for in our neighborhood. Started with high expectations. Did great job overall. Will work with her again, and recommend her services.
