About the Neighborhood
Living in Lansdowne–Merrick
Lansdowne Merrick is one of southeast Lexington's most established and livable neighborhoods — a compelling alternative to denser living, set right next to some of the city's very best dining and shopping. Mature maple trees, residential streets with long driveways, and spacious homes give it a settled, gracious feel, while everything you need is just a few minutes away.
This is a large, well-rooted neighborhood — more than 1,300 homes — that took shape largely in the early 1980s. The homes are notably spacious, the lots are generous, and decades of tree growth have given the streets their signature canopy. Its location, tucked between Chinoe Road, Lansdowne, and Chevy Chase, has made it a perennial favorite for families who want room and convenience in equal measure.

Dining and shopping at the doorstep: The neighborhood is anchored by the Merrick Inn, a former horse-farm estate turned beloved Southern-dining destination. A Kroger sits at the Chinoe Center on Chinoe Road, with casual spots nearby, and just west you'll find Fresh Market alongside refined restaurants like OBC Kitchen, Malone's Lansdowne, and The Mousetrap. Chevy Chase is two miles north, and Fayette Mall plus the Summit at Fritz Farm are about four miles away.
