Escape to your own private mountain retreat on 48 rolling acres featuring a mix of cleared and wooded land, abundant wildlife, and breathtaking 360-degree views of the Appalachian Mountains. Conveniently located near Historic Berea and just minutes from The Pinnacles in the Berea College Forest, recently recognized by Outside magazine as Kentucky's best hike, this unique property offers the perfect combination of seclusion, recreation, and accessibility. The main home is a modern log cabin featuring 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, vaulted ceilings in the living area, hardwood floors, stainless steel appliances, a kitchen island, and a stunning oversized fieldstone fireplace that serves as the centerpiece of the home. Enjoy panoramic mountain views from the wraparound porch or take advantage of the oversized two-car garage. A second rustic cabin provides excellent flexibility for guests, multi-generational living, short-term rental income potential, or a private retreat. The cabin offers 2 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, a full kitchen with appliances, washer and dryer, and both front and rear porches for enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The property is well-equipped for outdoor enthusiasts with walking, hiking, and ATV trails on the acreage. Deer, turkey, and other wildlife are frequently seen across the property. Additional improvements include a small storage building and a 24' x 16' barn near the main residence, as well as a 22' x 21' shed and a 32' x 19' covered shelter/viewing deck adjacent to the second cabin. Whether you're looking for a private residence, family compound, recreational getaway, or a property with guest accommodations, this one-of-a-kind mountain retreat offers an exceptional opportunity to own a remarkable piece of Kentucky's natural beauty.
