Info: We came to Lexington in 1992 searching for an old house. We found one, but we also discovered much more. Founded in 1822, Lexington has a rich history which includes the Santa Fe Trail, steam boating on the Missouri River and an historic Civil War battle. Combined with the wealth of antebellum architecture and friendly people, this scenic town and our 1843 Greek Revival house made us feel we had really come home. We were also impressed with the quality of educational opportunities (an Accredited with Distinction public school system as well as Wentworth Military Academy, which now offers a four year college program); the level of medical care (Lafayette Regional Health Center and numerous medical professionals serve the area); and shopping, dining and recreational activities. We were delighted to become part of a thriving community that welcomes thousands of visitors each year to visit its historic sites, attend special events and enjoy stepping back in time. For buyers, our goal is to help you find exactly the right home. If you are new to the area, we look forward to sharing Lexington's famed hospitality as we welcome you to the community.
