Breathitt County
Versatile Mountain Farm with Home, Creek, Pasture & Prime Hunting
5446 KY 378 Vancleve, KY 41385
Description
Nestled in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, right in the heart of Kentucky’s prime Elk Zone, lies this beautiful 142+/- acre country home and farm. Located less than 20 minutes from Jackson, this property offers that rare balance of peaceful seclusion and convenient access to modern amenities. This versatile tract features a wonderful mix of flat, tillable creek-bottom acreage, ideal for crops or large gardens, along with multiple hillside pastures perfectly suited for livestock. Over 2,000 feet of a flowing blue line stream cuts right through the heart of the property, with about a 1/3 mile of blacktop road frontage offering excellent year-round access. For the outdoor enthusiast, this farm is a true wildlife haven. Healthy populations of really big whitetail deer and turkey roam these woods, and you might even catch a glimpse of an elk or black bear passing through. The gently ascending trails take you from the fertile 800’ creek bottom up to scenic, fenced meadows near the 1,400’ elevation mark, where the views make you feel like you can touch the sky. Two primary ridges along the south and north frame the property, offering excellent spots for food plots or hidden hunting blinds. Much of the land is covered in beautiful oak and hickory hardwoods, with younger growth and thick bedding cover that provide ideal habitat for wildlife. The draws and lower wooded areas boast healthy stands of poplar, maple, and beech. The country home itself is solid, loaded with potential, and ready to move in as-is or easily updated to your liking. Whether you’re looking for a permanent residence, a hunting basecamp, or a weekend retreat, this place more than fits the bill. There’s even a large barn on-site, and with much of the property already fenced, you can step right into a fully functioning farming operation. This is farm life and country living in its purest sense. If you’ve been searching for that perfect blend of productive farm, hunting paradise, and peaceful country living, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better setup than this. Give me a call, and let’s see if this is the dream property you’ve been waiting for.
