Georgetown Real Estate

As the county seat of Scott County, this Kentucky town offers the potential home buyer all the attractions of a rural lifestyle, just 10 miles away from the city of Lexington. Consequently, the Georgetown, KY real estate market is buoyant and the wide range of houses and distinct neighborhoods will appeal to anyone considering a home in this community.

Georgetown real estate is wealthy in farmland. For buyers wanting to start a farm, there are plenty of undeveloped lots waiting for agricultural pursuits. Georgetown farmland is some of the best in the region because of its highly fertile soil.

This region is considered the land of milk and honey because the earth is nourished by limestone, which gives off beneficial nutrients and minerals, perfect for farming. Georgetown soil is made for producing a large variety of crops, including alfalfa, hay, and rye.

Some properties for sale are hundreds of acres, allowing for diverse farms that accommodates agriculture, livestock, and horses. Because this region is known for its equestrian enthusiasts, many of these larger farms are equipped with upgraded barns with dozens of stalls. You can also expect to find rings and outdoor arenas, made for training world-class competition horses. On hundred-acre farms, you may also find separate barns for equipment storage.

Mid-range farms in Georgetown typically have bungalows or two-story homes, perfect for growing families. Some of the most luxurious properties have huge homes characterized by their southern charm. These estates have amazing facilities like media rooms and gourmet kitchens.

If you’re not in the market for farmland, Georgetown real estate also has a broad selection of single-family, residential homes closer to the downtown core. These ranch-style homes are situated on low-maintenance properties and often have great benefits like kitchens with upgraded stainless steel appliances and modern designs.

No matter what type of property you’re in search of, Georgetown neighborhoods will charm you with their gorgeous, tree-lined streets and slow country roads.
