Spence Plantation Homes for Sale

Community Highlights

Spence Plantation is a compact gated enclave on the Lake Murray side of Lexington where the housing stock skews large, private, and water-oriented. Current offerings run from a cleared interior homesite of roughly 38,332 square feet to a $3.25 million waterfront residence, giving the neighborhood a distinctly estate-scale profile.

Lake Murray is the defining feature. Morning Shore Drive includes a residence with 215 feet of shoreline, panoramic water views, a dock, and a boat lift, while interior property on Due West is marketed with community dock and boat-ramp access. Homes here were built between 1997 and 2000 and sit on sites of about 29,185 to 32,234 square feet, or roughly two-thirds to nearly nine-tenths of an acre, which creates a low-density layout rarely matched in newer Lexington neighborhoods.

The architecture reads as custom rather than uniform. One home is finished in natural stone and spans more than 6,700 square feet across 3.5 levels, while another is described as all brick with a 2020 redesign that updated the kitchen, primary bath, flooring, lighting, and fixtures. Basements appear frequently, and homes in the neighborhood emphasize high ceilings, double staircases, chef's kitchens, large primary suites, wet bars, and generous garage space with room for boats or home-gym use.

Amenities & Lifestyle

Spence Plantation leans on lake access and private outdoor amenities rather than a long list of shared recreation facilities. Marketing highlights lake views, covered patios and porches, terraces, sport-court space, and multilevel layouts that open to the outdoors. Renovation work is part of the neighborhood story as well, bringing quartz countertops, double ovens, remodeled baths, upgraded lighting, and large pantry or storage areas into the mix.
