Convenient living in West Lexington's Wolf Run community

1281 Village Drive, known as Wolf Run, is a two-story condominium complex situated in the heart of West Lexington, Kentucky. Completed in 1970, this 51-unit community offers residents a blend of suburban tranquility and urban convenience. The brick exterior structure, with its external staircases and balconies, provides a classic aesthetic that fits seamlessly into the surrounding neighborhood. Located just inside New Circle Road, one of Lexington's major thoroughfares, Wolf Run places residents within easy reach of downtown amenities while maintaining a comfortable distance from the city's hustle and bustle.

Spacious and newly renovated two-bedroom units

Wolf Run offers a selection of two-bedroom units ranging from 885 to 924 square feet, with prices varying from $80,373 to $130,000. These homes feature either 1.5 or 2 full bathrooms, catering to different household needs. Recent renovations have breathed new life into many units, showcasing open concept living areas that flow seamlessly from the living room to the dining space. Residents can expect fresh neutral paint throughout and gorgeous new flooring that exudes warmth and sophistication. The kitchens are a true highlight, with some units boasting chef-inspired designs featuring full-size gas ranges, new cabinets, updated countertops, and side-by-side refrigerators. Bathrooms have been updated to offer a spa-like experience with sleek fixtures and tasteful finishes. Many units come with the added luxury of private entrances and personal patios, enhancing the sense of individual space within the community. The open floor plans and ample natural light create an airy, welcoming atmosphere, while features like central air conditioning, ceiling fans, and hardwood floors in some units add to the overall comfort and appeal.

Community-focused amenities with all-inclusive HOA benefits

Wolf Run offers a range of amenities designed to enhance residents' quality of life. The centerpiece is the community pool, providing a refreshing retreat during warmer months and a social hub for neighbors to connect. For larger gatherings, a party room is available, offering a space for residents to host events and celebrations. The condominium's HOA fee, set at $400 per month, provides exceptional value by covering all utilities including electric, water, sewer, trash, and gas. This comprehensive package also includes pool access, common area maintenance, and property management services, allowing residents to focus on enjoying their homes without the worry of separate utility bills or property upkeep. On-site laundry facilities add to the convenience, especially for units that may not have in-unit washers and dryers. The 24-hour access to the building ensures residents can come and go as they please, while features like air conditioning and heating in common areas contribute to year-round comfort. For those with vehicles, reserved parking spots are provided, eliminating the stress of finding parking in a busy urban area. The walk-up style of the building promotes an active lifestyle and fosters a sense of community among neighbors.

A blend of suburban charm and urban accessibility

Wolf Run is situated in West Lexington, a neighborhood that strikes a balance between suburban comfort and urban convenience. The area is characterized by tidy lots and complementary architecture, creating a cohesive and pleasant living environment. Parks are within walking distance of most homes, offering green spaces for recreation and relaxation. For daily necessities, residents have several options within easy reach. Save A Lot, a discount supermarket, is just a five-minute walk away, providing affordable grocery options. Super Mercado Aguascalientes, another nearby option, is about a five-minute walk, offering a variety of international products. For those who prefer larger chains, a Kroger supermarket is located about a mile away, easily accessible by car or a 25-minute walk. The neighborhood boasts a diverse culinary scene. Tortilleria Y Taqueria Ramirez, a highly-rated Mexican restaurant, is less than half a mile away, offering authentic dishes in a traditional setting. For quick bites, familiar fast-food options like McDonald's and Taco Bell are within a 10-minute walk. Community services are readily available, with the Jesse Higginbotham Neighborhood Center just a 10-minute walk away, providing various programs and services for residents. The newly relocated Lexington Public Library, Marksbury Family Branch, is conveniently situated about a quarter-mile from Wolf Run, offering a wealth of resources and community events. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to several parks. Valley Park is a mere 10-minute walk away, while Wolf Run Park and Cross Keys Park are both within a 15-20 minute walk or a quick 5-minute drive. These green spaces provide opportunities for recreation, relaxation, and community gatherings. For families with school-age children, the area is served by Cardinal Valley Elementary School, Leestown Middle School, and Paul Laurence Dunbar High School. While the elementary school is closest at about a mile away, the middle and high schools are within a 10-minute drive, making school commutes manageable for families.

Strategic location with diverse transit options

Wolf Run's location offers residents a variety of transportation choices, catering to different preferences and needs. For those relying on public transit, the Village & Daniel bus stop is less than a five-minute walk away, serving the Versailles Road line. Another nearby option, the Village & Devonport Outbound stop, is also within a five-minute walk and serves both the Night Versailles-S Broadway and Versailles Road lines, providing extended hours of service. The condominium's proximity to New Circle Road, one of Lexington's major thoroughfares, ensures easy access to other parts of the city for those who drive. This strategic location allows for quick commutes to downtown Lexington and other key areas of the city. For air travelers, the Blue Grass Airport is conveniently located just 6 miles away, or about a 10-minute drive, making out-of-town trips hassle-free. This proximity to the airport is particularly beneficial for frequent flyers or those who often host out-of-town guests. While the area has some infrastructure for walking and biking, it's primarily designed with drivers in mind. The neighborhood offers a mix of residential streets and main roads, allowing for some local errands to be accomplished on foot or by bicycle, particularly to nearby parks, grocery stores, and restaurants. However, for longer distances or accessing other parts of Lexington, a car or public transportation might be more practical. The reserved parking spots provided at Wolf Run add an extra layer of convenience for residents who rely on personal vehicles, ensuring they always have a place to park close to home. This feature is particularly valuable given the suburban nature of the area and the likelihood that many residents will use cars as their primary mode of transportation.
