Small city living in Lyndon

About 12 miles from Louisville, the small city of Lyndon blends rural history and modern suburban living. Lyndon’s roots can be traced to Alvin Wood, who built a train depot in town during the mid-19th century. Named Lyndon after Lynn’s Station, an 18th-century fort, the city was officially incorporated in 1965. Homes around town sell within 14 days on the market, partly due to its small-town ambiance combined with local eateries and major retail chains just minutes away. “East Louisville is an incredible location. It’s close to all that downtown has to offer but is minutes away from nearby malls and interstates is a huge draw as well,” says Michael Horstman, broker and owner of At House Louisville and real estate agent, who is a lifelong resident of Jefferson County.

There are approximately 5,400 homes in the city of Lyndon.

Charming bungalows and traditional homes

Neighborhoods like Holly Springs Village and Sycamore Creek feature sidewalks, cul-de-sacs and medium-sized yards along the streets. Other enclaves, such as those along Leyton and Lyndale avenues, feature narrower streets and no sidewalks. Architectural styles range from classic ranch-style homes to bungalows and new traditional subdivisions showcasing brick facades. Most houses in the area sit on a quarter of an acre, while the median sales price for a single-family home hovers around $325,000. Those looking to purchase a home can find anything from a four-bed rambler for $240,000 to an idyllic farmhouse with a screened porch and garden for $350,000 to a 4,200-square-foot new traditional home boasting high ceilings and a finished basement for $540,000.
