Highlights: This property offers a charming cabin-style 3 bed/2 bath home and barn situated on 36.04+/- unrestricted acres, complete with a spring-fed pond. If you've been looking for a place where life can slow down and the outdoors take center stage, this property is worth a look! The home features classic hemlock siding and a large front porch, some recent kitchen updates, and a few new light fixtures, but the land itself is the true highlight—partially wooded with untouched timber. Whether you enjoy hunting, exploring, or simply being immersed in nature, this property delivers. A picturesque spring-fed pond sits just outside your dining room window, your own personal fishing hole and a serene backdrop for everyday life. While the home could use a little TLC, it provides a foundation for a rustic getaway, hunting cabin, or full time residence for those seeking a simpler lifestyle. A barn on the property adds additional functionality, perfect for covered storage, equipment, or hobby farming. If you're dreaming of wide-open spaces in a part of the world that moves a little slower, come see 656 Thompson Road in friendly Monticello, Kentucky! *Property is located on a dead-end road, so there is no through traffic coming by the house. *There are multiple places on the property that would be suitable building lots. *Suitable for cattle or horses; no fencing currently.
