Elkhorn Meadow Georgetown KY - All You Need To Know

by Christy Wethington

Elkhorn Meadow

TLDR: Elkhorn Meadow is a powerhouse for affordability and density, offering townhome style living at a price point that is hard to beat in Georgetown. It's the ultimate low entry cost option for first time buyers and investors looking for cash flow with proximity to major employment.

Neighborhood Overview

Elkhorn Meadow, often referred to as Elkhorn Meadows, is a unique segment of the Georgetown market, primarily featuring $1990s$ built townhomes. Unlike many of the single family neighborhoods, this one provides a higher density, low maintenance option for buyers and investors. Its location is excellent, right near Elkhorn Creek.

HOA/Amenities: Information on a mandatory, active HOA is ambiguous across listings, with some sources listing $$0$ HOA dues. However, townhome communities often have some form of shared maintenance cost. Assume a minimal maintenance fee until confirmed via the deed or listing agent. The neighborhood's primary draw is its low maintenance structure, often including private backyards that may back up to Elkhorn Creek.

Location and Access

The neighborhood's position is its biggest asset for the commuter base.

Proximity to Toyota (TMMK): Elkhorn Meadow is exceptionally well placed, advertised as being minutes off I-75 and even less than a mile from the Toyota Manufacturing (TMMK) entrance for some nearby areas. This is a massive "value unlock" keyword for tenants.
Commuter Route (I-75): The easy access to I-75 means a fast route to Lexington or any other major Kentucky point, making it a critical hub for workers in the region.

Housing Market Snapshot

For comparison, the overall Georgetown median sale price is much higher (around $$230K$ median sale, $$299K$ median list for the general Georgetown market as of August 2025, according to Redfin). This is extreme affordability.
Average Days on Market (DOM): Properties here move with serious speed. Listings can go pending in as little as $15$ days. The overall Georgetown average is around $41$ days. This shows high demand for this price bracket: low cost homes are a high velocity asset.

Crucial Note: The definitive school zone for any specific address must be confirmed with the Scott County School District.

Why Buyers Choose Elkhorn Meadows

Elkhorn Meadows is the perfect solution for anyone hitting the "affordability wall" in Georgetown. It’s an opportunity to own, not rent, in a prime commuter area.

Unmatched Affordability: Buyers/investors can acquire an appreciating asset for a price that minimizes debt load. A home in the low $$200s$ with this level of TMMK/I-75 access is a huge advantage.
High Cash Flow Potential: For investors, the low purchase price coupled with TMMK's consistent employment means high, steady rental demand and a great return on capital.
Efficiency: These townhomes offer reduced exterior maintenance, translating to less work and lower costs, a key selling point for busy buyers or long distance investors.
