Farm, Land, Acreage, Lots, Rural, Property Size, Description:   SOLD

  • Approx. 29 acres more or less
  • Approx. 13 to 16 acres of river bottom of which
  • Approx. 10 acres are high river bottom and
  • Approx. 3 acres are low river bottom
  • Balance in mountain side - forest - approx. 13 to 16 acres of mountain side

  • Fields are maintained by a neighbor who cuts the fields for hay.
  • Some apple trees, chestnut trees, cherry trees, mint.
  • Fertile alluvial soil. Great for organic farming, organic gardening, starting an organic farm.

  • Farm is surrounded by mountains with sheer limestone cliffs, which offers a level of protection,
    privacy, seclusion and peace and quiet.

  • Bottoms are in pasture. About 20 years ago I seeded the fields with a fungus free type of
    Kentucky Tall Fescue.


Water, Waterfront, Riverfront, Stream & River Frontage:

  • Approx. 1,200 feet (+-) of waterfront, river front, frontage, river bank, on the Kentucky River.
  • A freshwater stream, creek, winds, crosses on the upriver, northern side of the property.

  • The Kentucky River is great for sport fishing and recreational boating. Boat ramps are in the area.
  • Great for viewing wildlife, birds, hawks, wild turkeys, deer. Great for hunting also.

  • Please Note:
    Although the farm is within the Boundaries of the Daniel Boone National Forest, all of
    the land surrounding the farm is Privately Owned. There is Public Use National Forest Land
    to the east and deeper into the mountains.

  • Also Note:
    The Google, Yahoo & MapQuest maps inaccurately show Old Landing Road continuing past
    the farm connecting to Buck Creek Road, an old trail, which is now an unused, abandoned and
    closed off. A road that does not exist. The County Road, Old Landing Road, dead ends at the
    gate to the farm. The online maps use USGS topographic map data from the 1920's or 1930's
    when folks traveled by mule and sled.


Farm House, Barn, Outbuildings, Well, Septic:

  • The house is an old Kentucky Tar Paper Shack Style House that can be fixed up and made a
    livable home again. The house site is on high river bottom, surrounded by trees.

  • Electric and phone are available to the property.
  • No plumbing. Outhouse needs repair.
  • Heats with a wood stove. Use propane for cooking.

  • The house site is very high on the river bank and is not prone to flooding. The farm house site has
    not flooded the last 20 years that I am aware of and I have been told by locals that the house site
    has not flooded in the past during extreme water events. That puts the history back as far as the
    early 1970's and possibly earlier. Please note: no guarantees being implied here.

  • Water supply is a drilled well that has never been plumbed. The well head is located on the high
    ground about 100 or so feet west of the house. I was present when the water well was drilled and
    the well drillers said water tastes good and the replenishment rate was satisfactory. The well was
    drilled in the late fall or early winter in the mid 1980's.

  • New 24 x 24 barn with 14 ft. sides, ground floor has 10 foot ceiling, big loft with 4 ft. walk up walls,
    lots of room.
