Allen Kershaw

Allen arrived in the Bluegrass State in 1971 to attend the University of Kentucky. After graduation, his early interests of agriculture and architecture resulted in the development of one of the most magnificent farms in Central Kentucky - Gainesborough Farm.

Allen's professional horse career began as a groom at Clovelly Farm with the ultimate mentor of farm managers - Lars LaCour. Allen then moved to Shadowlawn Farm as the assistant manager who oversaw the care of over 180 broodmares. He was hired by Gainsborough Farm to manage the horses and aid in the design and development of a one-of-a-kind horse farm. Under Allen's watch Champions Lamttara, Hatoof, and Fantastic Light (just to name a few) were produced at Gainesborough.

Well-known and respected by the equine community, Allen brings a fresh perspective and discerning eye to the clients he represents for Justice Real Estate. A hands-on horseman, Allen has lived in Woodford County for 30 years and was president of the Kentucky Thoroughbred Farm Managers Club. Allen was also honored by being selected as Farm Manager of the Year in 1997.

Allen and his wife Alexandra breed and race horses, so he is well-acquainted with the complex nature of this business that lies beyond the gates of the beautiful farms of Central Kentucky.
