30 acres on Lake Cumberland, Kentucky. Actually, not quite on Lake Cumberland.
There is no private lakefront land. The Corpse of Engineers owns all land
fronting on Lake Cumberland. This strip of government land is about a hundred
yards wide between the property and the actual water.
Lake Cumberland is an artificial lake, damned [sic joke] in 1952. The Lake is
100 miles long, has a surface area of 50,000 acres, and a shoreline of 1200
miles. It is a popular fishing and recreation area. Good hunting too.
Access to the Lake from the developed part of the property is a 10 minute walk
thru the woods. By car, Beaver Creek Resort is a 10 minute drive on paved
roads. Monticello is 10 miles away on KY Rt 92. In the other direction on
Rt 92, the pavement ends within a mile. There isn't much thru traffic.
The property is located on the Jabez topo map, roughly a half inch from the
south edge and three inches from the west edge of the map. The property is
approximately bounded by Rt 92 on the north, the jeeptrail on the east, the map
edge on the south (see Parnell Quad), and the creek on the west. Topo maps are
available for public inspection and duplication at a Map Reference Library,
located at your local college Geology/Geography Department. Or purchase for
less than $5 from Timely Discount Topos, 800/821-7609. Ask for a "Topographic
Map Symbols" pamphlet too.
The property is one side of a ridge, flattish on top and sloping westerly down
to the Lake. The road comes in at the top of the ridge. There are a couple
acres of this ridgetop cleared for pasture and garden. The rest of the land is
covered with mixed hardwood timber. It could be cleared for pasture, but I
wouldn't advise it.
The obvious housesite is on a little knoll looking westerly out over the Lake.
Except that you would never know that the Lake is there. All you can see is
hills, woods, and more trees. You can't see the highway, either. There are
electric and phone lines into the housesite. There are two limestone springs,
one conveniently located near the housesite. There are no building codes,
health codes, zoning, nor easements.
There is a 20 x 30 foot barn in good condition, with three private stalls and a
loft. Stock water is from a small pond. Present residents are four fattening
hogs, two mules, and a horse. In other times there have been goats, a milk
cow, chickens, ducks, geese, peafowl, and a jackass.
You get the timber rights, water rights, access rights, right rights, etc
rights. The mineral rights have been reserved, but there are no economic
minerals. The only mineral production in the area has been a few small oil
wells, now abandoned. Taxes are about US$150 per year.
I do not supply pinup pictures. I have some photos of the property, but there
really isn't much to see. Send me $10 and I'll send you a set of prints.
The price is $15,000. I would consider 1/4 down and $200 per month, plus
interest.
