Midway

Comfortable house, quiet location, beautiful country. Location is very convenient to both Lexington and Frankfort. Steve is very friendly, accommodating, helpful. We planned an extra day to explore the area and wished we had longer. We will return for a longer staywhen we get the opportunity.

About the host

Hosted by STEVE SIMOFF

I am a high energy, people kinda person! I enjoy my family, friends, horses, being outdoors, gardening & yard work, doing things for others, and giving back to my community. This year (2016) I am running for a seat on the City Council in Midway, my hometown.

Originally from a small farming community in Iowa, I grew up with thoroughbred horses. I earned a degree in commercial advertising and graphic design and started working in the travel industry. I went on to own and manage several successful travel agencies which I eventually sold.

I moved to the midwest and had a successful thoroughbred training operation in Ky for 18 years before retiring. I am now a (ROAP) certified Racing Official in the industry.

Why they chose this property

This was my home for over 10 years and we wanted to renovate it and give it a new purpose but keep it in the family. I was a thoroughbred trainer for 18 years and currently a certified racing official.

What makes this property unique

Beautiful sunrises & sunsets. Pastures with horses and cattle nearby and the occasional hawk or deer. Off-street parking, city park w/ basketball courts & swings for the kids. Intriguing landscape makes it very private in summer especially.

It's a short walk to downtown shops and restaurants. Fun to walk around town and see the different styles of houses.

There's a walking trail being developed at the Walter Bradley Park that meanders in and around the creek to add to the walking experience. We'd be happy to tell you how to find it!
