Andover
Established golf-course living with mature trees and classic Kentucky brick.
A local's read on Andover.
Andover wraps around Andover Golf & Country Club, one of Lexington's premier private clubs. The neighborhood was platted in the 1980s and filled in through the 1990s and 2000s, so houses here tend to be substantial — brick exteriors, traditional floor plans, and lots large enough to feel set apart.
It's a favorite for move-up buyers and families putting down roots: mature landscaping, established streets, and a country-club amenity set that ranges from tennis and golf to a full dining room.
The day-to-day feel.
Andover reads quieter than Hamburg — tree canopy, slower traffic, deeper lots. You'll hear a little golf cart hum on weekends, kids biking on weeknights, and not much else.
It attracts both long-tenured residents and relocating professionals who want a traditional Kentucky feel without giving up newer construction quality.
Before you write an offer.
- · Multiple subdivisions fall under the Andover umbrella — Andover Forest, Andover Heights, Oakwood, and more — each with its own HOA and character.
- · Andover Country Club membership is separate from any neighborhood HOA.
- · Schools typically Athens-Chilesburg / Bryan Station or Henry Clay depending on exact address — verify before you offer.
- · Price per square foot is higher than Hamburg but lot size, build quality, and resale hold up well.
