A 2025 house on the 11th hole at Greenbrier Golf & Country Club, a gated five-acre property in Nicholasville and an updated single-story home in Lexington’s Shadeland neighborhood fill out the Lexington metro area’s five highest reported home sales for the week ending September 20, 2026, a group that combined for $16.29 million. The five closings were recorded between September 14 and September 18, and the four below the Paris sale ran from $950,000 in Versailles up to $2.05 million in Lexington.
Bluegrass Sotheby’s International Realty was the listing brokerage on three of this week’s five reported sales, and Ken J Donworth of that firm held the listing side on both of the top two. The houses themselves reach from a 1978 ranch close to downtown Lexington to one finished in 2025 in the gated Ashford Oaks community, with Paris, Lexington, Nicholasville and Versailles all represented.
No. 1 — $10,500,000 · 1581 N Middletown Rd, Paris, Kentucky
A property at 1581 N Middletown Rd in Paris changed hands for $10,500,000 on September 14, 2026, the highest reported price anywhere in the metro for the week. The recorded facts on it are few: a 1997 build date, four bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Detailed listing remarks were not available, and RealtyWire is reporting the sale from the recorded facts alone.
Ken J Donworth of Bluegrass Sotheby’s International Realty was the listing agent. The transaction ranked No. 1 in RealtyWire’s Lexington Metro Area Top 5 for the week, and Donworth represented the listing side of two of this week’s five highest-priced reported sales.

No. 2 — $2,050,000 · 3044 Bobwhite Trl, Lexington, Kentucky
3044 Bobwhite Trl overlooks the 11th hole of Greenbrier Golf & Country Club from a 1.4-acre lot in Ashford Oaks, a gated community in Lexington. The house was completed in 2025 and carries a reported 6,066 square feet. It closed on September 18, 2026, for $2,050,000. The property previously changed hands for $361,187 in 2021, before the current residence was completed in 2025.
A floor-to-ceiling see-through fireplace separates the great room from the keeping room behind it, and a wet bar along the back wall holds an ice maker and a beverage refrigerator. The kitchen is fitted with GE Monogram appliances, quartz countertops and custom cabinetry, and the pantry off it carries a second built-in oven, a water filtration and dispensing system and a dedicated water line for a coffee machine. Upstairs the house divides into two wings, each with two bedrooms and a full bathroom.
A screened porch with its own fireplace faces open greenspace and the Greenbrier fairways. The finished walkout basement holds a guest suite, a rubber-floored gym, a game area, a dog washing station and a golf cart garage. The yard is fenced and irrigated, with soffit lighting along the roofline and landscape lighting through the grounds.
Ken J Donworth and Meredith Price of Bluegrass Sotheby’s International Realty were the listing agents. The $2,050,000 closing put Donworth and Price at the listing side of the second-highest reported sale in the metro that week. Kush Rathod of Lifstyl Real Estate represented the buyer.

No. 3 — $1,537,700 · 1170 Delaney Ferry Rd, Nicholasville, Kentucky
A keyed entry gate opens onto the five acres at 1170 Delaney Ferry Rd in Nicholasville, where paddock and pasture across the grounds suit horses.

The property previously changed hands for $125,000 in 2002.
A flagstone walkway runs through mature landscaping to a front entry framed by an arched transom window, and the foyer inside rises to nineteen-foot ceilings. A private office and a formal dining room open off it, and recently refinished hardwood floors carry through the family room and kitchen, where a quartz-topped island holds a built-in wall oven and a gas range beside butcher-block perimeter counters and a gas fireplace in a black granite surround.
The primary suite is on the main level, with a tray ceiling, French doors onto the pool patio, dual vanities, a soaking tub and a walk-in shower.

Sheridan A Sims and G Dustin Warren of Keller Williams Commonwealth were the listing agents. The property went under contract 8 days after the current listing date, and the closing came in third among the metro’s reported sales for the week.
