The Crossings at Hager Place

Independent Assessment

The weight of evidence for The Crossings at Hager Place leans toward a genuine 55-and-over community: 55places.com's own city-level count identifies it as Nicholasville's only 55+-tagged community, and multiple independent real-estate and MLS-adjacent sites describe it consistently as a close-knit 55+ community, not merely an active-adult-marketed one. That said, one inconsistent signal suggested the community might be better described as 'age-targeted' rather than legally 'age-restricted,' a genuine and important distinction (age-targeted communities market toward older buyers without a legally enforced minimum age, while age-restricted communities do enforce one under the federal Housing for Older Persons Act framework). A follow-up, more targeted search could not reproduce that specific 'age-targeted' framing directly from 55places' own listing, and the broader weight of independently-checked real-estate sources consistently uses '55+ community' language for this specific property. Given that the stronger, more reproducible signal favors a genuine 55+ community, this community is classified as legally age-restricted 55+, but a buyer's attorney should still confirm the recorded declaration language directly given the one inconsistent signal encountered.

Who May Find This Community Appealing

The Crossings at Hager Place is likely to appeal to buyers who want a 55+ HOA community in Jessamine County with a full clubhouse amenity package (fitness center, multipurpose event space, pool, patio, walking path) at a scale (124 homes) larger than The Silks Club but smaller than The Walnut Hill Club at Chilesburg in nearby Lexington. Buyers who prefer Nicholasville's smaller-city setting, just south of the Lexington metro, over Lexington proper are a strong fit.

Homes, Builders & Development History

The Crossings at Hager Place's 124 attached homes were built between 2001 and 2004, ranging from approximately 1,058 to 1,754 square feet with two or three bedrooms and bathrooms and an attached two-car garage. The specific original developer or builder of record was not confirmed; buyers should request this history directly from a local agent or the HOA.

Current Pricing & Market Positioning

A specific current pricing range for homes at The Crossings at Hager Place was not confirmed. Buyers should request current comparable sales from a local agent familiar with the Nicholasville/Jessamine County market, and should factor the community's clubhouse amenity package and walking path into any comparison against 55+ communities in Lexington a short drive north.

New Construction vs. Resale Considerations

The Crossings at Hager Place was built out between 2001 and 2004 and is treated as an established resale-oriented community. Buyers should confirm current resale inventory directly with a local agent.

Taxes, Insurance & Special Assessments

Homes at The Crossings at Hager Place are subject to Jessamine County, Kentucky property tax administration. Jessamine County's effective property tax rate is reported at approximately 1.06% by one source and approximately 0.84% by another, using different calculation methods; buyers should confirm the current rate directly with the Jessamine County Property Valuation Administrator (PVA). Kentucky's homestead exemption for homeowners 65 or older (or totally disabled) is worth $49,100 for the 2025-2026 assessment period. Kentucky fully exempts Social Security benefits from state income tax and excludes pension, IRA, and 401(k) distributions from state income tax up to $31,110 for 2024-2025 (rising to $41,110 for 2026 and after), with income above that threshold taxed at Kentucky's flat state income tax rate. Buyers should also request current homeowners-insurance quotes directly.

Community Layout & Lifestyle

The Crossings at Hager Place centers community life around its clubhouse, which combines a fitness center with multipurpose space for events and activities, complemented by a pool, patio, and walking path. The HOA's low-maintenance model (common-area and exterior maintenance, snow removal) supports an active-adult lifestyle without exterior upkeep responsibilities. A specific organized-activity calendar was not independently itemized; buyers should request current activity details directly from the HOA.

Shopping, Healthcare & Airport Access

The Crossings at Hager Place is located in Nicholasville, Jessamine County, roughly 12 miles south of downtown Lexington. Nearby amenities include grocery stores (Kroger, Save A Lot), pharmacies (Walgreens, CVS), and multiple healthcare providers including Central Baptist Hospital, Clark Regional Medical Center, Saint Joseph Hospital, and Bluegrass Community Hospital. Exact drive times to specific destinations could not be independently confirmed; buyers should confirm these directly with a local agent.

Age Qualification & Material Ownership Restrictions

The Crossings at Hager Place is identified by 55places.com's own city-level count as Nicholasville's only 55+-tagged for-sale community, and multiple independent real-estate sources describe it consistently as a close-knit 55-and-over community. One inconsistent signal was also encountered suggesting the community might be an 'age-targeted' rather than a legally 'age-restricted' community -- a real and meaningful distinction under 55places' own terminology, where age-targeted communities market to older buyers without a legally enforced age minimum. A follow-up, more targeted search could not reproduce that specific framing directly from the primary listing, and the stronger, more consistently reproduced evidence favors treating this as a genuine 55+ community. This community is listed as legally age-restricted 55+ on that basis, but buyers who need certainty should still request the exact recorded declaration language directly from the HOA given the one inconsistent signal noted.

Tradeoffs & Limitations

Buyers should request current pricing, the HOA fee amount, and a specific developer/builder for The Crossings at Hager Place directly from a local agent or the HOA, as none of the three was confirmed. Buyers should also be aware of a genuine naming overlap: a 'Senior Apartments for Rent' listing appears on rental aggregators under a very similar name to this for-sale HOA community. The rental listing is treated as a distinct property rather than the same community, based on the weight of independent real-estate sourcing describing the for-sale homes as an HOA community with attached garages rather than rental units -- but buyers and agents should double-check they are looking at the correct listing when searching online, since the names are easy to confuse.

Comparison With Nearby Communities

The Crossings at Hager Place is a 55+ HOA community in Jessamine County, a short drive south of Lexington and its nearby communities The Silks Club, The Walnut Hill Club at Chilesburg, and Heritage Place. At 124 homes, it sits between The Silks Club's 45 homes and The Walnut Hill Club at Chilesburg's 140 homes in scale, and its clubhouse fitness-center-plus-event-space format is broadly comparable to Walnut Hill Club's clubhouse amenities. Buyers considering Nicholasville over Lexington proper should weigh the smaller-city setting and shorter commute distances against Lexington's larger selection of 55+ communities.

Current Listings

A connected local agent can provide current available listings at The Crossings at Hager Place -- and can confirm that a given listing is for this for-sale HOA community rather than the separately-marketed 'Senior Apartments for Rent' property found under a similar name -- along with the current HOA fee and coverage list.

Is The Crossings at Hager Place age-restricted?

The weight of evidence points to yes: 55places.com's own Nicholasville city count identifies it as the city's only 55+-tagged community, and multiple independent real-estate sources describe it consistently as a 55-and-over community. One inconsistent signal suggested it might be 'age-targeted' rather than legally restricted, so buyers who need certainty should confirm the recorded declaration directly with the HOA.

Is the 'Senior Apartments for Rent' listing under a similar name the same community?

It is treated as a distinct rental-housing product rather than the same for-sale HOA community, based on the weight of independent sourcing describing The Crossings at Hager Place as an attached-garage HOA community. Buyers and agents should confirm they are viewing the correct listing when searching online.
