Homes For Sale

Every spring, I love to work with Kentucky relocation clients and I also deal with the mommy Robins. Believe me... I'm just waiting for spring to show up right now! The clients are already arriving and we have been out touring homes.

Back at the office...the Robins try to build their nests in the hanging baskets if I put them out too early. Last year I thought I had outsmarted them because I held off on buying the ferns till the first of May.

I have a wreath on the front door that one Robin tried to put some twigs in to get it started. Those I threw out and I thought she had given up.

One day I noticed a bird flying off my wreath again but this time when I took a closer look I found a whole nest right at the very top.

As I brought a stool out of the office to get a better look I saw it was too late to tear it down...there were 3 little blue eggs inside.

Now, I was committed to waiting it out. This became a job because everyone opens the front door. I became fearful that the door would open too quickly and the bird would fly into the room.

Finally, this fear beame real when a friend opened the door too fast and mommy Robin was flying around and hitting the ceiling in the living room!!

That had my heart pumping for a few minutes till we could get both doors open and get her to fly out! Whew! This was starting to be another job!

The 3 babies(Larry,Curlie & Moe)were getting their feathers and I patiently waited for them to learn how to fly so I could have some closure.

As you can see they are not afraid of me at all and would even let me touch their beaks. That's cool!

Yeah...life is sure exciting here at Lizette Realty where Kentucky relocation is a speciality!

Richmond KY - FEMA Has Proposed Changes In The Flood Insurance Rate Maps In Madison County

The City of Richmond KY, Madison County and City of Berea have recently received copies of these updated FEMA maps.

The maps show high risk areas where there is 1% annual chance of flooding. I know about this because I was one of the residents that received a letter to inform me today. 

There will be a public forum on January 20, 2010 at 6:30PM with the City of Richmond KY, Madison County, KY Division of water and FEMA at the Madison County Extension Office, 230 Duncannon Lane, Richmond KY.

If your property is located within the city limits it may be affected by the proposed changes for flood insurance.

Especially, if you received a letter of notification in the mail.

KOTO Japanese Bistro Richmond Centre Richmond KY

At last...KOTO Japanese Bistro has arrived! All of us in Richmond KY have been driving by the building in the Richmond Centre for months with our mouths watering just waiting for the grand opening.

About the name:

The koto (琴 or 箏) is a traditional Japanese stringed musical instrument
derived from the Chinese guzheng. The koto is the national instrument of Japan.

I was honored to be one of the first guests to sample the food a day before the Grand Opening.

I headed over with a BFF(Dee) and was warmly welcomed by Charlie the General Manager and the staff including Tony the Bar Manager and Sasha. KOTO is owned by Mr. Dong, this is his second restaurant in KY. The first, Asian Royal is located in Georgetown KY.

The elegant decor is warm with lots of wood and tall back leather chairs. Attention to detail is evident everywhere. There is a large fountain at the front door and the bar is to the right.

One of the highlights and there are many would be that Richmond KY will finally have a first class sushi bar.

Equally amazing is the heated hibachi grill at the tables where food is prepared fresh.

The key ingredients are the meats, seafood, rice noodles and vegetables. The sauces are meant to enhance the flavor of foods, not over power them.

Enjoy a dining experience where each dish is prepared to order on smokeless hibachi tables and presented with artistic flair, right before you!

Our chef Joe at KOTO Japanese Bistro was trained I think in New York City and was one of the best entertainers I have seen at hibachi grills and I have eaten at quite a few all over the USA. His real home is in Laguna beach.

It was a blast watching him expertly prepare our food and serve it up.

Joe wouldn't miss a beat even if we commented on his style or to each other. Amazing concentration!

I think he super-sized our meals because there was so much food I had plenty for lunch today. It was good heated up again too!

My next dining adventure at KOTO will have to be the sushi bar. I have really missed having one close by. I'll have to do another review once I sample sushi.

It's nice to have so many new and good restaurants now in the Richmond Centre. Business is booming in Richmond KY and not a moment too soon!

Jerzees Cocktail Lounge - Comedy Club Richmond KY

I had the pleasure of checking out the grand opening of a new cocktail lounge in Richmond KY called Jerzees. Not only is it a lounge, but the night I was invited there...there was a comedy club act also.

As far as I can remember, there has never been a comedy club in Richmond KY. It's about time! Awesome idea!

Back in the 60's this downtown building was an A&P store on 122 Main Street. It's located about a block west of the court house.

The layout and decor is perfect for a cocktail lounge. Justin Waggoner and Bryson Alford have put together the perfect combination of talent and creativity to launch Jerzees.

Jerzees is a cocktail lounge that is great for all types of patrons. There was a blend of all ages the night I was there for the comedy club debut.

 Wednesday nights are country/ western night with live entertainment. Check out the pool tables too for a chance to practice your skills.

The next comedy club date will be Aug. 28th.

Buy tickets and reserve your table online. 

Jerzees is closed on Sun - Tues.

OPEN: Wed -Sat 8PM - 1AM.  

Check out Jerzees website.  

For more information contact seth@jerzeeslounge.com or call 606-276-0018

Chick-Fil-A Richmond Centre Richmond Ky Grand Opening

Richmond KY finally has a Chick-Fil-A in the Richmond Centre! I happened to drive by the night before the grand openingand witnessed all the hoopla.

The Chick-Fil-A parking lot was wall to wall with tents filled with prospective customers that wanted to be one in a hundred that would be fed a free meal once a week for a year. To do this you have to be in line before they open the door at 6:30 AM.

So devoted fans pitch a tent, armed with sleeping bags, tents, blankets, games, ipods and books and wait it out. Many Richmond KY fans were right in the mix will the die hard fans that follow every Chick-Fil-A grand opening across the USA.

They battle the elements to be in line. I think this group got rained on in the early morning hours. When I stopped by, they were dancing the Hokey Pokey being led by the Chick-Fil-A cow.

I loved the vehicle in the lot that said, "Eat more chickin". I snapped a pic of the back end.

My Mom is a huge fan of Chick-Fil-A but she didn't plan on sitting in a tent all night for the grand opening. She'll pick up her chickin the easy way at the drive thru!

It sure is nice to have a few good places to go to in Richmond Centre. I think the next ones will be Olive Garden and Panara Bread.

Richmond KY is really starting to expand on exit 87 off I-75. To have the Richmond Centre nearby to housing will be easy to walk to shopping, theaters and restaurants.

The grand opening of the Chick-Fil-A in Richmond KY is a welcome addition! YUM!

Paddy Wagon Irish Pub Richmond Kentucky is the place to have fun.

Third time is charm for the owners, Greg Ferrell and Chuck Fields.

Established in 2004 on Water Street...then Paddy Wagon Irish Pub moved to Main Street in 2006 for a year a few doors up from the new location still in Richmond KY.

Then suddenly it burned to the ground in the middle of the night.  

The famous fire is still one of Richmond KY's unexplained mysteries.

Fire investigators scratched their heads in puzzlement as to the cause.

"Hmmmm...It could be this...or could be that." Who really knows what caused  Paddy Wagon Irish Pub to burn to the ground. Or do fires burn up? Whatever the case... it has remained a mystery in Richmond KY.

All that was saved that fateful night from the pub was an Irish clock, 1 sign and a few police patches.

Both Greg and Chuck teach criminal justice at EKU so the patches were a collection of police patches that patrons donated when they visited Paddy Wagon.

I've been in bars that have unique collections of $1 bills(Tortilla Flat, AZ), neckties(Carefree, AZ) and bras(Key West).  

The idea for the Irish pub came from a trip to Ireland when they toured the Guinness Factory, Dublin and to the north...Belfast. Armed with information and local souvenirs Chuck came up with the décor for the inside of  Paddy Wagon Irish Pub.

The name of the pub has to do with criminal justice. Maybe Irish justice?

Now open since June 26, 2008 with a plethora of beer and ale for anyone's tastes or mood. The food is great...I had a generous helping of the fish and chips and the service was spot on.

 There is a friendly atmosphere inside Paddy Wagon Irish Pub and plenty of room to park outside. Sip your beer on an outdoor deck and enjoy a Richmond KY downtown view.

Live band entertainment is on Friday and Saturday. Thursdays will be added when school starts. Monday is open mike.

Hours are 11 - 1PM Monday - Friday. Saturdays 12 - 1PM.

Richmond KY Planning And Zoning - Homes For Sale 

If you travel south on I-75 you may have noticed that seven exits are in Madison County and three of them take you to Richmond KY. If you are looking for homes for sale...this centrally located town of approximately 36,000 people, might be perfect for you. Planning and zoning has has a big impact on how the city has grown!

In these times, people are looking for affordable housing but still want to be in an area that is not hard hit by the recession.

Homes in Central Kentucky and the city of Richmond KY are still selling well and buyers are paying within 5% of asking price. It's actually been a very busy season of selling real estate here.

Nice to know that when you purchase one of the homes for sale in Richmond KY it still can gain equity and will be an investment for your future. Specific information on certain areas for investors can be found in the Planning and Zoning website.

I grew up in downtown Richmond KY and have fond memories of how it looked back then. This is a current picture of the beautiful buildings in my Main street view.

As you can see the underground utilities,  replica street lights, sidewalks with brick and nicely paved street add to it's appeal. The Planning and Zoning plays a big part in the real estate design of Richmond KY.

Now is also a good time to find some nice Richmond KY homes for sale.

Homes For Sale Richmond KY - Planning And Zoning

Whether you are out of state and relocating to Richmond KY or have lived in Kentucky but are looking for homes for sale...this spot where North meets the South, established in 1798, might be perfect for you. Planning and zoning has come a long way since then!

In these times, people are looking for affordable housing but still want to be in an area that is not hard hit by the recession.

Homes in Central Kentucky and the city of Richmond KY are still selling well and buyers are paying within 5% of asking price. In the past week I have even experienced multiple offers on a few homes that I represented the buyers.

Nice to know that when you purchase one of the homes for sale in Richmond KY it still can gain equity and will be an investment for your future. Specific information on certain areas for investors can be found in the Planning and Zoning website.

I grew up in downtown Richmond KY and have fond memories of how it looked back then. This is a current picture of the beautiful buildings in my Main street view.

As you can see the underground utilities,  replica street lights, sidewalks with brick and nicely paved street add to it's appeal. The Planning and Zoning plays a big part in the real estate design of Richmond KY.

Many new businesses have opened in the past year or so. Small business owners are seeing value in our thriving downtown area.

One of the newest is the Second Chance Resale Boutique and maybe one of the yummiest is the Stop and Go for BBQ.

There are still a few store fronts available for lease to enterprising investors and business people.

A legendary location is the former Woody's Restaurant within the historic Glyndon Hotel.  

This established restaurant and bar is available for lease and also includes the use of a liquor license and the grand dining room of the Glyndon Hotel.

Click for more info.

Also, available a few doors down, but located below the hotel and right across from City Hall, is a unique retail space of about 2600 square feet, showcase windows, high ceilings and plenty of wall space.

It would be perfect for a  retail shop or gallery. In the past, it has been an antique store, church meeting room and a retail store that I can recall.

Now is also a good time to find some nice Richmond KY homes for sale.

Richmond Ky Paradise Cove is a Cool Spot of Fun 

Finally, Richmond Kentucky has a new public pool! It's called Paradise Cove and is located in Gibson Bay. It features a fabulous eight-lane diving pool with two, one-meter diving boards, a children's pool, two 40-foot tall slides, a wide slide and a small butterfly slide for the small tykes.

There is talk of adding a lazy river in Paradise Cove and another slide at a later date. It just wouldn't fit into the original budget. Even though the weather has been a bit rainy, the pool is a welcome sight to Madison County locals.

Years ago, I can remember the public pool located in Rolling Hills on the north end of town. I swam there every summer. After that one closed, the only place to go was the public pool in Berea.  The closest one built in recent years was at Ft. Boonesborough State Park. That one was still a bit far to drive to. Paradise Cove is in a convienient location.

Summer in Richmond KY is going to be cool regardless of the temperature! See you at Paradise Cove!

Second Chance Resale Boutique In Downtown Richmond Kentucky

Since I grew up in downtown Richmond, I have a special place in my heart for businesses on Main Street. 

Now we have something new...Second Chance Resale Boutique! It is located at 144 East Main Street.

I was invited to the grand opening ceremonies on May 8th for the ribbon cutting.

As you can see... there was quite a crowd to welcome Joc'elyn Williams(Managing Director in the pink hat)to do business and celebrate!

Della Shackelford will be Operations Manager. The store website is www.secondchanceresaleboutique.com.

The boutique specializes in current and contemporary clothing and accessories from major department stores. Also they purchase from clients, gently worn name brand clothing and accessories for women, men and children in all sizes.

Some items are big brand names at very small prices like Calvin Klein, Liz Claiborne, Ralph Lauren, Coach, Ann Taylor, Jones New York and Tommy Hilfiger.

As Joc'elyn made her first cash sale, I could see that the place was going to be a hit!

The store hours are:

Operating Hours Sunday - Closed Monday - Closed Tuesday - 10am - 5pm Wednesday - 10am - 5pm Thursday - 10am  - 5pm Friday - 10am - 5pm Saturday - 10am - 2pm

This past week in Richmond KY has been a crazy one!

It seemed that Madison County would all wash away from rain every day.

The forecast was rain, rain and cloudy with possible rain.

My yard had started to look like a jungle because it didn't stop raining long enough for the yard guy to cut it.

After being swamped by the rain and work all week, I sort of enjoyed the rain on Friday until the electric went off and the Direct TV went out too.

As soon as that happened, I heard the tornado warning siren go off.

These extremely loud sirens are strategically placed all around Madison County to warn us to take cover. They were installed after the 1974 tornado that took my home and left me with only the clothes on my back. It was tough to start over again.

In just moments, I determined what was important to save if a tornado was coming. I grabbed my dog, car keys, purse, cell phone and laptop and headed for the basement. Funny how you just don't need much of what you own.

As I settled in to watch the rain that was blowing sideways past the French doors, I could hear... then see emergency vehicles heading down Hwy 52. Lots of them!

Hmmm...I thought there must be a big car wreck down there. A little later I saw one EMS truck headed back up the road headed to the hospital.

Later, the electric came on and I didn't think much more about it. The next morning I found out a tornado had hit a few miles down the road from my house. A few people in Madison County had died and many more were injured. It didn't seem real somehow.

Sunday morning, I got up early and with my camera in hand, took off to see what had happened.

These Madison County scenes are all on Hwy 52 in Kirksville near 1295.

When I got to the disaster area, there were only 2 National Guard units blocking the Adams Place Subdivision.

These pictures were all taken right past the Kirksville Elementary school.

The tornado took the concrete block car repair shop but left a car on the lift!
