That is why owner Michele Vaughn decided to consult with Canadian landscape architect Robert Jolicoeur for his expertise in equestrian architecture, landscape and specialization in footing.

Robert Jolicoeur is world known for his design of the entire equestrian venue for the 1996 Atlanta Olympics. He also played a key role in designing parts of the Kentucky Horse Park and has a reputation for designing the show jumping courses for several equestrian competitions.

There is a lot that goes into the design of a world class equestrian center. Owner of Starr Vaughn, Michele, has proven that it is worth investing in developing her equestrian facility (now listed by Judy Richardson of Nick Sadek Sotheby’s International Realty) has proven to be a place where riders choose to compete year after year participating in different disciplines and prestigious award shows.

The facility needs to not only be functional, but needs to be safe and attractive. The design includes elements that most people don’t even think of being important like water, fertilization and the environmental implications to the horse’s health and performance.

Every part of this horse facility has a purpose and is strategically placed for the comfort of the horses, their riders and spectators.

Not far from the historical Downtown Lincoln and amongst the pastures and a few wineries, you will find this small gated community with estates on large lots.

Leave the stress behind at the gates, as the owner said, “This is a place of peace and natural beauty. You can’t help but to relax here.”

Once you go through the gates into this development, you will drive along the paved road lined with white ranch fences and a host of oak trees. Drive left down your long driveway with views of your estate ahead. Watch out for the occasional squirrel that may run out in front of you and be on the lookout for the occasional deer that roam the property.

The property has a vast array of possibilities!

With the decomposed granite, warm summers and cool winters, this is a great place to plant vineyards. Red wines tend to do the best in the area which simulates the same climate as Tuscany, Italy.
