Property description

Welcome to Dunvegan and Hanlen Farms. Ideally located in Woodford County on Midway Road in between Versailles and Midway KY. Dunvegan is rich in Kentucky history; situated just across the street from Lanes End Farm, the area is one of the most significant in Kentucky history due to the settlement of Midway where Kentucky's first racehorses were bred. The main house: a stately Federal style home was constructed in 1810 and has been lovingly cared for and added on to, most recently with a fully independent Owners Suite. Equestrian features include an 8-stall barn, 196 x 65 sand dressage arena, plank fencing and 5 run-in-sheds in the fields surrounding the barn. A carriage house and caretaker's cottage complete the estate. Hanlen Farm is 30+ acres with custom log home, an 8-stall barn and two sand arenas. There is an access easement for the road leading to Hanlen Farm. Both farms are part of the Bluegrass Land Conservancy.
Dunvegan and Hanlen can be purchased seperately. Contact Tess for more info.

Fireplace mantles all have exquisite designs
more elaborate than the average and baseboards are all at least eighteen inches in height.
Wide plank hard wood floors are original and have been carefully maintained over 200
years.
There is also a custom log home with 4 Bedrooms and 4 and half baths. A stacked stone fireplace is the heart of the home and a screened in back porch and covered front porch with gorgeous views are the perfect place to relax after a long day riding. The walk out basement offers a full In Law Suite with it's own entrance.
A carriage house and caretaker's cottage complete the estate.

Lot Features

Plank fenced pastures
Topography on the 108.991 acres ranges from 0-less than one acre of over 12%
slopes. The predominant soil type is Maury silt loam, (referred to as Bluegrass-Maury silt
loam since the 2008 data issued by the USDA and NRCS). Over 59% of the farm is the
Maury silt loam 2-6% slopes. Maury is the most desirable soil type as it is a very productive
soil for cropping and is adaptable for many non-agricultural uses as well. The second most
abundant soil is a McAfee silt loam 6-12% slopes that is also a good crop soil that has a
slightly lower yield than the Maury silt loam. Other soil types in evidence on the farm are,
in order of amount, Fairmount flaggy silty clay, 6-12% slopes; Huntington silt loam, 0-2%
slopes. Huntington is a nearly level soil that is found along stream ways and in flood plains.
Huntington silt loam, is the most productive soil in this area although it can be subject to
high water after heavy spring rains. There is .9 acres of McAfee silt loam, 12-20% found in a
back corner behind the new log dwelling on Hanlen Farm. Overall the 108.991 acres is a
well above average crop farm that is an excellent example of the fertile Inner Bluegrass of
Kentucky.
