The homes of Lincolnshire Village
Most of Lincolnshire Village’s homes are on the northern side of Olde Half Day Road. Winding streets carry residents through the densely forested community. The surrounding trees provide a sense of privacy for homeowners, who frame their dwellings with fresh mulch landscaping and neatly mowed lawns on their acre-sized lots. Houses here come in Colonial and new traditional styles built from the late 20th century onward, and custom builds that have popped up in the last five years. Prices for homes in this section of the community start at $660,000, while larger, custom-built homes on significant acreage can reach up to $3 million. To the south of Olde Hay Day Road, ranch and new traditional-style homes within the gated community of Rivershire, and an array of condos, offer a lower price point from $210,000 to $650,000, depending on size and condition.
