Stonewall is a suburban neighborhood with room to spread out

Stonewall is an established southwest Lexington suburb where you can find a ranch-style house with plenty of yard space and quick access to city amenities. The neighborhood is made up of several subdivisions, and depending on where you live, your home might overlook a horse pasture or be next to the sledding hill at Stonewall Park. A neighborhood association keeps residents connected through year-round events, and families can get involved at the neighborhood’s highly rated elementary and middle schools. Parks, locally owned restaurants and grocery stores are nearby, and commuters have convenient access to New Circle Road and Man o’ War Boulevard.

Stonewall is a friendly neighborhood with homes built from the 1950s through the '90s.

Ranch-style and New Traditional homes with spacious yards

Most of the neighborhood’s subdivisions were developed between the 1950s and ‘90s, and ranch-style houses are common. These sometimes have midcentury-modern designs, and split-level and two-story New Traditional homes are also available. Large yards and outdoor spaces are a big draw for the neighborhood. Lots average around a third of an acre, and some homes sit on up to 2 acres. The Stonewall Equestrian Estates subdivision even has shared equestrian facilities, including a 20-acre pasture and a horse barn. Michael Prather, a property manager at Keller Williams Realty whose sister lives in the community, says, “My sister loves to get out to landscape and enjoy her yard. She has raised planting beds." Townhouse-style condos are also available.

A sledding hill, dog parks and Shillito Park are close by

Several parks are in the neighborhood or within a short drive. Stonewall Park, next to the elementary school, is a mostly forested green space that is a popular sledding destination in the winter. Higbee Mill Park has a walking path that loops around a soccer field. Just across Clays Mill Road, the nearly 40-acre Wellington Park is best known for its off-leash dog park with separate paddocks for large and small dogs. Nearby, Shillito Park is a much larger green space with sports fields, tennis courts and a swimming pool. Across Harrodsburg Road, the Moondance Amphitheater has regular concerts and events like the free Big Band and Jazz concert series in May and June.

From summer parades to winter caroling traditions

The Stonewall Neighborhood Association organizes several events throughout the year. Here are some popular ones:

  • Fourth of July Parade, a summer celebration with decorated wagons and a competition for the best costume
  • Ice Cream Social, an August gathering with sweet treats and a bounce house
  • Christmas Caroling, a December event where residents sing Christmas carols together
