Public Remarks: Cash Only , Endless possibilities on over 5 acres in Boston, Kentucky! With more than 3,000 square feet and a peaceful pond, this property is ideal for a mini farm, Airbnb, or bed and breakfast. The home was impacted by the historic April 6, 2025 flood when 13 inches of rain fell in one day. The first floor has been fully gutted and is ready for restoration—the second floor remained untouched. The home features five fireplaces that have never been used by the seller and are considered ornamental. A flood insurance quote has been added under documents. Located just minutes from Bardstown, Elizabethtown, and the Bluegrass Parkway, this is a rare opportunity to create something special in a beautiful rural setting.
