Duncastle is a unique and secluded historic 11.7-acre horse farm, located in Rural Lexington, yet minutes away from all city activities.

The historic home has been restored, the home boasts a new luxurious kitchen with all newer Thermador appliances including dual ovens and dual dishwashers. The beautiful quartz counter tops just adds to the spacious kitchen. All 5 bedrooms are spacious with plenty of natural light, a formal dining room, and a beautiful family room. There are also 2.5 baths.
