Description
Located on Kentucky Highway 394 in Breathitt County, this 88-acre property is offered as two tracts of 73 acres and 15 acres. Buy the size that fits your plans, or put both together for a larger hunting and recreational property in eastern Kentucky’s hill country. Privacy is one of this property’s biggest strengths. It sits on a dead-end blacktop road with only two homes beyond it, so traffic is minimal. You get the convenience of paved access without the through traffic, which makes for a quiet setting whether you’re building a home or slipping into a stand before daylight. On the 73-acre tract, a house site right off the blacktop has already been cleared and is ready for final grade work, with a power pole on site. Electric and county water are available, and there is a dug well and a pre-existing septic system on the property. The septic’s condition is unknown, so buyers should plan to have it evaluated. The 15-acre tract also offers several house-site options. That gives buyers of either tract a place to build a home, cabin, or camp. From the road, the land rises through hardwood timber to ridgetops with long views across the surrounding hills. Elevations run from roughly 900 feet in the bottom to around 1,200 feet on the ridges. The property was partially logged, and a new internal trail system now climbs from the house seat to the ridges so that you can reach most of it on foot or by ATV. More than 40 acres remain untouched, and many large, mature hardwoods are still standing. The logged areas will regrow into thick cover. Paired with the untouched timber, that gives deer and turkey both bedding cover and travel routes. Wildlife sign is easy to find. Deer tracks are common along the trails, and a flock of turkeys was photographed feeding on the cleared house seat—the property has plenty of whitetail deer and wild turkey. Benches and ridgelines give Plentyenty of options for stand placement, and the trail system allows quiet entry and exit. A seasonal drain runs through the property, adding a water source during the wetter months. The 73-acre tract has the cleared house seat and room to roam and hunt. The 15-acre tract has its own house site options and works well as a smaller homesite or hunting retreat. Together, the full 88 acres make a private hunting property with room to build. It feels remote but isn’t hard to reach. The property is about 12 minutes from KY Highway 15, the main highway through the region, and about 20 minutes from Jackson, the county seat, for fuel, groceries, and services. Hazard is a short drive farther down KY 15. Private land with a cleared homesite, utilities, and paved access is hard to find in this part of Kentucky.
