About the host
Hosted by Mary Foster
My wife and I take care of this property on our own. Military Veterans, who love dabbing into the Real Estate Market. My wife has been a property manager for 30 years and when we renovated this home, we wanted to share it and meet others. My wife was born and raised in Frankfort & I have been all over the world traveling in the military.
Why they chose this property
Picture yourself strolling beneath shaded trees along historic brick sidewalks, passing stately old storefronts, getting caught up in old bookstore or antique gems, pausing for a hot coffee or a tall ice cream cone, walking along the Kentucky River and watching riverboats float by.
Downtown offers a charming blend of historic architecture, Riverfront Energy, and Community warmth! Our home is close to the Old State Capitol (1830), the New State Capitol, multiple distilleries, museums, cultural landmarks, and has quaint small town charm of cafes, shops, and a vibrant dining scene.
What we enjoy the most about our neighborhood is how the Kentucky River borders downtown and its scenic views. We love how you can walk down St. Clair Street and hear local musicians playing or sitting out on the sidewalk enjoying a meal. It just has a that small town relaxing genuine feel to it that we love!
