Market Data as of October 2026
Orchard Estates is tiny, so a home may come up for sale only once every year or two, and none closed in the past twelve months that we are aware of. Because there are so few homes and they differ in age, size, and lot, price depends on the individual home more than on any neighborhood pattern. Call 803-243-0224 and we'll pull the most recent sales of homes like the one you're considering.
Community details on this page come from Lexington County public property information, current listings and the county flood map, and the Lexington School District One school locator, checked October 9, 2026. Ask us for the latest comparable sales and any recorded neighborhood restrictions.
Types of Homes
Orchard Estates is single-family homes on large lots. The homes are mostly story-and-a-half or one-story, and about half have brick exteriors, with wood or siding on others. They were built in the 1990s, with one from around 2002, so they are well established.
At about two acres, the lots are far larger than most Lexington subdivisions, which means room for outbuildings, gardens, and privacy, along with more yard to maintain. Plan a thorough inspection, since most homes are thirty years old, and ask us how a specific home sits on its lot.
Neighborhood Amenities
We have not found a community pool, clubhouse, or playground in Orchard Estates. The appeal is space and privacy on one cul-de-sac, with a small neighborhood association handling shared items.
Because Orchard Place Court is a private road, upkeep is handled by the neighborhood rather than the county or state. Ask us how road maintenance is funded and what any dues cover. If you want more amenities nearby, compare Hallmark Shores and Beech Creek Place.
Shopping, Dining, and Recreation
Orchard Estates is in the Lexington area, in the west-of-town part of Lexington County near Lake Murray's shoreline communities.
Everyday shopping, groceries, medical offices, and restaurants are all part of the greater Lexington area, and our Patrick's restaurant recommendations lists places we like to eat around the Midlands. For a wider look at the area, see our Lexington real estate market overview.
Tell us what you want close by — groceries, dining, parks, or a particular commute — and we'll show you the options from the exact address you're considering.

Home Prices
Orchard Estates is so small that one home's price tells you little about the next one. Price depends on the individual home's age, size, updates, and its roughly two acres. We don't publish a single neighborhood average, because with so few homes one number would mislead.
Thinking about a specific home? Ask us for a current comparative market analysis built from the most similar recent Orchard Estates sales. If you own here, our Lexington home values guide explains how we look at value.

Waterfront Homes
Orchard Estates is not a waterfront neighborhood. It is not on Lake Murray, so you won't find lakefront lots, lake views, or shoreline rules here. Orchard Estates' lots are inland. The neighborhood is a short way from several Lake Murray neighborhoods, but none of its homes is on the lake.
If you want to be on the water, tell us and we'll show you the lake neighborhoods that are. If a specific home's lot looks like it touches water, ask us and we'll confirm exactly what it is before you make an offer.
The county flood map shows the Orchard Estates homes in the minimal-risk zone. Flood exposure can still vary by address, so ask us to check the flood map and insurance requirements for any home you're considering.
Lake Murray Access
We haven't found a community dock, boat ramp, or slip tied to Orchard Estates, so plan on launching from a public ramp or a marina. Our Lake Murray boat ramps and access guide covers public launch options around Lake Murray.
If you're counting on a specific way to reach the lake, we'll confirm it before you make an offer.
Location and Commute
Orchard Estates is on Orchard Place Court, a private road, in the Lexington area. Homes have a Lexington mailing address (ZIP 29072) and are outside the Town of Lexington limits.
