Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Year Purchased: 2007

Barbara and I have lived behind Bush House for 30+ years on a 90 acre family farm. Barbara is the gardener, and constantly works to improve and maintain her flowers and trees. I usually do what I am told.

Why the Owner Chose Lexington

When the house became available from wonderful neighbors, we couldn't resist it because it touches our property, compliments it, and was in the family several generations ago. It is such a comfortable place, we thought others might enjoy it too.

The Unique Benefits of this Country House

At Bush House, you are completely in the country. We encourage birds to feed near the house and there is a cattle farm across the road with pond the cattle swim in, in view from the front rooms of the house. During the day you can hear typical farm noises (plowing, mowing, cattle calling, ect.) Night is quiet and the deck behind the house is a great place to spend time reading or visiting with other guests. Yet, a grocery is nearby and Hamburg Mall is 16 minutes away.

    • September 27, 2009 Though the rain prevented our being able to walk the beautiful property, we thoroughly enjoyed our much too short stay at the Bush House. The house was so well appointed, comfortable and accommodating. While we enjoyed most meals at the house, the location is very convenient to great restaurants, as well as sightseeing and events in the Lexington area. Thanks for all the little extras that made our stay such a pleasure. We can’t wait to come back! Art & Jean Brightwell Wiley & Pat Andreu Jacksonville, Florida

    • June 4 – 7, 2009 What a wonderful get away for our annual biking trip! Bush House was lovely and all of your “extras” were very much appreciated. We spent three days bicycling the horse country, which was amazing! Lunched at Wallace Station and Lock & Key (both were delicious). We had great dinners in the beautiful dining room at Bush House and enjoyed the movies you provided. This was a perfect, relaxing weekend and we look forward to returning! Thank you again for your hospitality. Sincerely, The Furman’s, The Hilgut’s, The Bailey’s Parviz Shamlou

    • We loved being at your beautiful historic home for Christmas. It was such a surprise to find all the holiday decorations and the fruit and stocked pantry. Our time there was peaceful and comfortable. I can't imagine any place being more perfect. It will be our first choice for future visits to Kentucky.

    • The Bush House was a nice retreat for us and we enjoyed our stay there. We definitely prefer this to a hotel and the accommodations were very nice. We were able to cook out on the grill and enjoy a nice evening playing croquet with the kids. I would recommend to anyone considering a visit to the Lexington area..

      This was a perfect place for all of us friends (party of 8)to relax and enjoy each other's company during the Rolex 3-Day Equestrian Event nearby at the Kentucky Horse Park. We look forward to staying here again - maybe 2009 Rolex or at least the 2010 Equestrian Games. Thank you for providing a beautiful escape and an elegant alternative to the typical hotel-type stay.

      We're so happy you have the home back in the family. Its a truly cozy haven - the care you put into the details is obvious. And I loved the cedar oil added to the atmosphere! The extras you left there in the way of supplies was wonderful, added to the well-stocked kitchen. (This comment from the guest register at Bush House).

      We love this house and it's location in the country and its history. The furnishings, linens & many, many kitchen supplies were great and very generous. It is so very comfortable here! We will come back again. (This comment from the guest register at Bush House).
