On The Lexington Bluegrass Multiple Listing Service when I search by subdivision I am trying to include every subdivision that feeds into Stonewall Elementary. This is what I have so far:

Grasmere
Higbee Woods
Monticello
Rabbit Run
Robinwood
St. Stephen's
Stone Creek
Stonewall Equestrian
Stonewall

What am I missing? What are the houses called that are very close to Shillito Park? I don't think that is Robinwood or Monticello. Can anyone help me?

Thanks.

Monticello is probably the closest to Shilito

MicahGirl - I want to say that there's one in between Stonecreek and where you're talking about called "Windsong" or something similar. It only consists of a couple of streets..... I only remember this because of the neighborhood association mailings in my neighborhood use to mention them.

I believe the neighborhood you're talking about consists of mostly smaller garden homes that runs into the apts and Shillito? There probably wouldn't be anything that would be a size fit for your family there, but if I can find out, I'll let you know.

That little neighborhood with garden homes is the area I'm thinking of--actually not necessarily for me, but in case my in-laws move out here later. I've looked for something like Windsong but can't find it in the listings.

I also just realized that some of Pera Place feeds into Stonewall. So I'll add that to my list.

Thanks for the help.

I think you are talking about Man o" War Village, which is the real name, although they may be marketing it as something else.

Yep! That is Man O War village. I hate to say this, but realtors have been known to check the wrong neighborhood on the MLS (lbar.com) when they do data entry. If that is the area you want, I would suggest searching Area 4, leave the neigborhood blank, and seach within the zip code 40503. You will be sure to get all the listings you are looking for that way. The downside is that you will pull up a few that you won't want. I have seen Andover Forest called Andover Hills, Gainesway call Park Hills, etc..........

If you are looking for a specific school district, leave the area and neighborhood blank, but check the school you want.

Can you check the school you want on an lbar search?? That would be wonderful.

Actually, lbar and the Realtor use the "common" name for the subdivisions, that which they are marketed by, but the "legal" name, the name on the final plat, is sometimes established years in advance. The zone change for the original "Andover", was called Lochmere(south side of Todds Rd.) and the newer part is platted under Brighton Place(north side of Todds Rd.). They take their name from the Andover Golf Club, which was named after the streets and houses began building. The situation is similar to the development that Ball is doing around Hays Blvd. There are several of around town and it makes it quite confusing.

OOOOOOPS! I haven't done a search on the public side of lbar in a long time. I didn't even know they changed the home page. It doesn't have as much as it seemed to years ago.

I would provide you a link to the 31 listings that have Stonewall as the elementary school, but that would have my contact info on it, so we'll do this the long way. Hope one of these works for you since it is alot of cutting and pasting! These are the MLS#'s:

731089, 733132, 735059, 802361, 716105, 803997, 802308, 733334, 724329, 806426, 800897, 730838, 802584, 731800, 803197, 724051, 805580, 725404, 728897, 804880, 806107, 802466, 805560, 734331, 805945, 801675, 730996, 804013, 722325, 731801, 734234.

All the neighborhoods were Stonewall, Monticello, Stone Creek, Robinwood, Pera Place, St. Stephen's and Rabbit Run, so you have probably seen these. BTW, Avoid that house on Blackhorse. It has synthetic stucco. That is the stuff that made headlines about 15 years ago. The wood framing on people's houses were rotting since that material traps moisture. It works okay in areas with low humidity or on metal framing.

Again, sorry for the mix up on searching on lbar. I guess my $990/year dues get me a few extra perks!
