If you’re searching for a well-established neighborhood with space, custom homes, and a prime location near schools and major roads, Adams Place in Richmond, Kentucky deserves a closer look.

In a recent episode of On the Road with Marcum Sold, Amanda Marcum took viewers on a drive-through tour of this charming community - and it’s easy to see why it continues to be a favorite among local buyers.

A Prime Location Near Top-Rated Schools

One of Adams Place’s biggest advantages is its location directly behind Kirksville Elementary School, one of Madison County’s most well-established and highly rated elementary schools (home of the Blue Jays!).

The neighborhood sits just off Lancaster Road, conveniently positioned:

  • Minutes from I-75
  • A short drive to the Eastern Bypass
  • Close to Exit 83 and Duncannon Lane
  • Quick access to shopping, dining, and downtown Richmond

It’s the perfect blend of peaceful residential living with easy access to everyday essentials.

Spacious Lots & Custom-Built Homes

Adams Place was developed around the year 2000 and includes approximately 73 homes, nearly all of which are custom-built. No cookie-cutter houses here - each home has its own character and design.

What sets this neighborhood apart:

  • Every home sits on at least 1 acre
  • Several homes back up to open farmland
  • Strict architectural guidelines ensure high-quality construction
  • Predominantly brick or Hardie siding exteriors
  • Beautifully maintained landscaping throughout the community

Home prices in Adams Place typically range from the mid-$200s to $500,000+, depending on size, updates, and location.

Community Features Buyers Love

Beyond the homes themselves, Adams Place offers features rarely found together in acreage communities:

  • Streetlights (a standout feature!)
  • Sidewalks throughout the neighborhood
  • Quiet cul-de-sacs
  • Low traffic and a close-knit community feel

With only about 70 homes, residents enjoy privacy without feeling isolated.

A Neighborhood with Resilience

Adams Place has even proven its resilience. After sustaining damage during major tornado activity years ago, affected homes were rebuilt - strengthening the neighborhood while preserving its character. Today, the community stands as beautifully maintained as ever.

Is Adams Place Right for You?

This neighborhood is ideal if you’re looking for:

  • Acre-plus lots
  • Custom homes
  • A family-friendly setting
  • Proximity to schools and interstates
  • A quiet, well-kept community with long-term value

Homes here don’t come on the market often - and when they do, they tend to attract strong interest.
