An approx. ac farm pond on the property along with several public access pits within walking distance offers great fishing and summertime recreational opportunities. The investment potential of this property is undeniable. 58+/- acres of quality tillable ag land could continue to be cash rented or would most certainly be a candidate for enrolling in a conservation program. The southern end of the property sits within the Pikeville Oil Field and has a history of production with no active leases or wells at this time. There are also known coal reserves on the property as shown in the borehole data available. Further, although this property will most likely not see development anytime soon, it will soon have fiber optic internet installed along its 5000’ of county road frontage. The buyer will also have the option of obtaining a first right contingency on the seller's 3+/- acre homeplace. Whether you’re looking for an uber-safe inflation-resistant investment, an expansive and secluded country home build site with no potential for neighbors, or a one-of-a-kind outdoor recreational property that will surely produce, this property has you covered.
