Hi! My husband and I are looking at possibly relocating to the Lexington area for a job at University of Kentucky. We'd ideally love an area that we can get about 10 acres, safely raise a family with some good neighbors around and not have more than a 30 minute commute to the university. I understand this might be impossible, but I have been browsing real estate websites and the land seems to be out there, but we just don't know the areas well enough. We are a young married couple with no kids but they will be existing in the near future
Also, my parents will be coming along with us. We plan to buy a lot or two, 10-20 acres, and build 2 homes or do a big renovation on an existing home. We are coming from the Houston suburbs that have been rated some of the safest, well rated school district and easily affordable in the country so we're pretty spoiled. Our price range is flexible depending on what we get but lets just say, we really like the idea of spending about 200k on an empty 10 acres. Thats impossible to find around here! We do love restaurants, shopping and being able to run to the grocery store without having to drive an hour. Also - work commute is a big deal to me since I will be the only one doing any commuting!
Thanks for all of your help!
