About this House
Bordering the breathtaking Big South Fork National Recreation Area, this one-of-a-kind property offers the perfect blend of rustic charm, modern convenience, and endless opportunity. Whether you're seeking a private retreat, equestrian property, or income-producing getaway, this unique estate delivers.
The 1,850 sq ft custom-built main cabin welcomes you with an open floor plan, rich custom woodwork, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. Featuring 2 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, the home also includes a versatile bonus room or study, ideal for remote work or additional guest space. Enjoy peaceful mornings on the expansive 8' porch or unwind on the back patio with a firepit, where stunning rock bluff views and mature trees create a truly serene setting. A thriving fruit orchard, complete with peach, pear, apple, and grape, adds to the homestead appeal.
Designed for both functionality and versatility, the property features two well-appointed barns and a fenced pasture. One barn offers 1,200 sq ft on the main level with garage doors, a full bath, and a finished 530 sq ft loft, ideal for an office, studio, or storage. The other, known as "The Loft", has been converted from a tack room and stalls into a cozy hiker hostel with a sleeping loft, TV lounge, sink, mini-fridge, and heat/AC; perfect for guests or rental income.
Modern infrastructure meets country living with city water, electric, fiber optic internet, two septic systems, and durable Rhino Shield coating on all structures. A gated entrance and security camera system provide added privacy and peace of mind.
With direct access to Big South Fork right out your back door and Daniel Boone National Forest just minutes away, you're surrounded by a mecca for hiking, backpacking, kayaking, rock climbing, horseback riding, mountain biking, off-road riding, and hunting. Conveniently located near Whitley City, Williamsburg, Somerset, and Oneida, the property is easily accessible while still feeling completely immersed in nature.
This breathtaking property offers rustic charm with modern convenience in one of the Southeast’s premier outdoor destinations. It has been lovingly used as a home place, horse camp, vacation rental, hiker hostel, and is ready for whatever vision you bring next. Whether you're an investor, entrepreneur, outdoor enthusiast, or simply seeking peace, privacy, and potential, this is your chance to own a truly unique slice of Kentucky paradise.
Additional acreage and cabins are also available, offering exciting potential for expansion into a fully operational vacation retreat or resort.
