Description

Available for the first time in many years is the highly recognized landmark 600+acre farm, ''The Knobs Farm''. Jeptha Knob is the highest point in the Bluegrass region of Kentucky. Beyond the gated entrance, this storied farm has geological significance with meteoric impact causing a unique outcropping of rocks and craters and has been studied and queried by many. Once a working dairy and cattle farm, this farm has been used for many years by one family for recreation and crop production while earning passive income as a cell tower sight for 4 different providers. There are two residences currently on the property, one is a small brick 3/2 ranch home and the other is the ''cabin'' built by the current owners and overlooking the lake.

Supplements: This delightful, sun filled residence emanates peace and tranquility from the momentous approaches. On the first floor there is the Owner's Suite with en suite bath, laundry, eat in kitchen,with massive pantry, great room with local stone fireplace and wonderful sunroom with lake views on all sides. There is a fabulous outdoor fireplace next to an awesome entertaining pavilion with electric and water, perfect for weddings, parties, family reunions or whatever one wishes to celebrate. There are also other outbuildings adjacent to the cabin. A workshop, garage and storage building are conveniently located just across the drive from the cabin. There are trails through the hundreds of acres of woods with creeks, hills, outcroppings of rock and abundant nature......turkey, deer, hawks, fox, owls, rabbits among many others. The hunting is unsurpassed in the area. It would be a great place to trail ride horses or mountain bikes or simply create walking trails for hiking. There are designated crop areas that currently supply the corn for one of the local Bourbon Distilleries. There is a super cool old dairy barn that could be converted to another use as well as a tobacco barn, another large stock barn with concrete floors, an old spring house and a silo! The two ponds are brimming with fish and the views and vistas from some of the hilltops are absolutely breathtaking. Come and visit today....this Shelby County Landmark will not last long.
