Enjoy rustic luxury fit for a primary home, vacationing, hunting, farming, and/or running a hospitality-based business. This ±4,600 square foot masterpiece is situated on ±346 private acres. The log cabin home features grand views, custom wooden floors, oversized showers, two full kitchens, wood fire stove, solar power, reliable internet (Starlink) and so much more. The land is 75 percent wooded (mixed stand and last logged in 2017) with two ponds and some seasonal creeks. You can be in Downtown Morehead for groceries or a pint at Sawstone Brewery in less than 25 minutes and to Cave Run Marina in 45 minutes. You're just shy of 90 minutes from Lexington, KY, Red River Gorge Recreational Area, and Ashland, KY. There is no zoning, making this property an extraordinary opportunity for additional improvements such as barns, barndominiums, tiny homes, cabins, etc.. The cemetery is a private family cemetery considered abandoned by Rowan County, who maintains it yearly. According to the sellers they've seen no visitors in four years. Their understanding is that they legally must allow access to it, but how that looks is between the owner of the property and any surviving family member. The county maintains Ditney Ridge Road all the way to the cemetery. After that point, the road is the owner's responsibility.
