Arcadia, KY Recently Sold Homes for Sale

Types of Homes in Arcadia

Arcadia contains four distinct housing formats within a single master-planned community: single-family homes, patio homes, townhomes, and ranch-style condominiums. The single-family sections — marketed by Drees Homes as Arcadia Place and Arcadia Village, and by Fischer Homes under its Masterpiece and Designer collections — are predominantly two-story plans in the 2,000 to 3,000 finished square foot range, with three- and four-bedroom layouts, two- to three-car garages, and basements included on Fischer's single-family plans. Condominium and paired patio home plans in The Shire at Arcadia run smaller, generally 1,400 to 1,900 square feet on a single level with a private entry and covered patio. Exterior treatments across the community include brick, fiber cement, and Craftsman-style detailing, and the street layout follows the site's hilly terrain rather than a grid, which produces wooded valley views from a number of lots.

Amenities in Arcadia

Arcadia's shared amenities include a clubhouse with a fitness center, swimming pools, and a network of walking paths that connect the community's sections. The development was platted around the site's existing tree cover and open space, and the Arcadia Community Association publishes a development plat with the trail system marked. The clubhouse is reservable by homeowners through the association's online portal, and the association maintains a community events calendar.

Arcadia HOA and Community Governance

Arcadia is governed by the Arcadia Community Association, professionally managed by Vertex Professional Group. The association's bylaws structure a five-member Board of Directors so that seats are distributed across the community's sections rather than concentrated in one: two seats are allocated to Single Family, one to Highlands/Vineyards, one to The Shire, and one open seat that may be filled from any subsection. This is worth understanding before you buy here — Arcadia's condominium and townhome sections carry their own sub-association assessments in addition to the master association dues, so the total monthly obligation differs by section. Ask for both sets of governing documents and the current assessment schedule for your specific section during the inspection period.

Parks Near Arcadia

A.J. Jolly Park, Campbell County's largest park at approximately 1,000 acres, is about 8 miles south of Arcadia at 1501 Race Track Road in Alexandria. The park surrounds a 200-acre lake and includes an 18-hole golf course, an 18-hole disc golf course, roughly 20 miles of equestrian trails, hiking trails, and the Campbell County Environmental Education Center, which covers more than 50 acres of field, forest, and wetland habitat. Note that the county has listed the A.J. Jolly campground as closed for the 2026 season; day-use areas, the golf course, and the trail system remain open.

Pendery Sports Park, a 72-acre county facility with eight baseball fields, six soccer fields, a basketball court, and a three-quarter-mile walking trail, is north of Arcadia in Melbourne.

How Arcadia Was Developed

Arcadia was planned as an approximately 327-acre, roughly 1,000-unit mixed housing development — the first master-planned community of its scale in Campbell County — and was built out in phases by two Northern Kentucky builders, The Drees Company and Fischer Homes. Early sections opened with homes priced in the low $200,000s. Drees' Arcadia Place and Arcadia Village sections have since sold out of new inventory, while Fischer Homes has continued to release condominium and paired patio home plans in The Shire at Arcadia. The result is a community with both resale inventory and new construction available at the same time, which is uncommon at this stage of a subdivision's life and worth watching if you're comparing price per square foot between the two.
