Description
I love it when a client buys a farm and tells me they’re going to keep it forever, because I know that means they’re going to take exceptional care of that property and be a true steward of the land and the wildlife. However, sometimes life happens, plans change, and people find themselves in situations where they end up selling a place they never intended to. For buyers, those are the best opportunities, because those farms have been well cared for and thoughtfully managed over time. That is certainly the case for this property. Located in the heart of Ohio County, Kentucky, this ±111-acre property offers a unique mix of seclusion, functionality, and outdoor opportunity. Designed for those who value independence and connection to the land, it features a handcrafted log cabin, established wildlife habitat, and a diverse landscape that supports hunting, recreation, and rural living. At the center of the property stands a hand-built log cabin, constructed in the early 1990s from oak timber harvested directly from the ridge. The cabin reflects quality craftsmanship, with each log, beam, and board sourced from the property itself. Inside, the home features white and red oak finishes, modern plumbing, and a practical layout that supports weekend stays or full-time living. Several outbuildings near the cabin provide added storage and utility for tools, equipment, or outdoor gear. The property is designed for self-sufficient living. It operates primarily on solar power, while still connected to county water for convenience. A 260-foot deep well serves as an additional backup water source, offering peace of mind and long-term reliability. This balance of renewable energy and modern infrastructure makes the property ideal for a sustainable lifestyle or an off-grid retreat. The land itself is well-suited for deer and turkey hunting, surrounded by large tracts of reclaimed Peabody ground that experience very limited hunting pressure. The current owners have practiced active land and wildlife management, creating bedding areas, food plots, and travel corridors that support a healthy deer population. Roughly eight acres of food plots and cover have been established and maintained since 2021. Several quality blinds and stands are already in place, making this a turnkey hunting setup. The area has produced multiple trophy-class whitetails, including deer measuring over 200 inches within a few miles of the property. Beyond hunting, the landscape features a beautiful mix of rolling ridges, hardwood timber, and open areas. Mature red and white oak dominate the canopy, with stands of poplar that could be harvested for future timber value. A trail system runs throughout the property, allowing easy access by ATV, horseback, or foot. Three stocked ponds with bass and catfish provide excellent fishing opportunities and enhance the property’s natural beauty. From the cabin, the elevation change creates a scenic overlook of the ponds and surrounding hollows, adding to the tranquil setting. While the property offers privacy, it remains conveniently close to nearby amenities. A gas station and Dollar General are about five minutes away, and the towns of Hartford and Beaver Dam can be reached in approximately 15 minutes for groceries, dining, and medical services. The property feels remote but remains accessible year-round. An adjoining 190-acre agricultural field has been available for lease, providing potential for expanded hunting access or additional recreational use. Neighboring landowners are known to value privacy and maintain good boundaries. Additionally, copious amounts of tools and equipment will be included in the sale, adding a huge value for buyers, allowing you to simply show up and enjoy this property without the need of bringing various tools and equipment for property maintenance. This ±111-acre Ohio County property combines recreation, sustainability, and investment potential. With its off-grid-capable cabin, managed hunting habitat, stocked ponds, and trail network, it offers a complete rural living experience in one of western Kentucky’s most wildlife-rich areas.
