Lexington’s most expensive homes No. 26 to No. 50
The Herald-Leader ranked Lexington’s 50 most expensive homes in order of their fair market values in 2017 county property records. Houses ranked from 26 to 50 are included here plus one honorable mention. Photos show the differences in size, color and style outside while details reveal the number of bedrooms, bathrooms and fireplaces inside.
The top 50 most expensive homes have fair cash values of $1.73 million or higher, as determined by the Property Valuation Administrator’s office in its newly released 2017 assessments. The PVA sets the fair cash value — the fair price for a home if it were sold — and taxable values — essentially the fair cash value minus any exemptions. Property taxes are calculated based on the taxable value.
Some PVA details about the houses, including room counts, are based on data from real estate listings or estimates derived from square footage.
