Property Description

Step back in time with this authentic late 1800s Kentucky farmhouse nestled on 2.832 surveyed acres in the scenic rolling countryside of Greensburg. If you've dreamed of restoring a true pre-1900 farmhouse and creating your own country retreat, this rare opportunity is full of character, charm, and endless potential. The home welcomes you with a classic plantation style front porch where you'll enjoy peaceful mornings overlooking panoramic farmland views. Mature shade trees frame the home and extend toward the picturesque pond, creating a setting that's becoming increasingly rare. The fenced homesite backs beautiful pasture surrounding a pond filled with impressive fish, including trophy-sized bass. There's ample room for horses, cattle, goats, or your own hobby farm. Imagine adding a rear deck overlooking the pond, enjoying peaceful countryside views. One of the biggest surprises is that modern conveniences are already at the road. Fiber internet, telephone service, and public water are all available, making it easy to blend historic charm with today's amenities. Public water is real affordable to connect, with a new meter and 3/4-inch service typically costing around $1,000, fiber internet install is generally around $81 (buyer to verify costs). 3 Phase Power at street! Inside, the home remains largely true to its original era. Enter through the central hallway featuring a staircase, with a room to the left and a living area to the right leading into the kitchen, with an additional room ideally suited for a future laundry room and bathroom. Upstairs, the spacious loft offers flexibility for bedrooms, a studio, office, craft space, or whatever your vision inspires. This is a genuine restoration project. The home's pre-plumbing origins are immediately evident, as it was built before indoor plumbing became commonplace and currently has no bathroom. The existing floor plan, however, provides space to thoughtfully incorporate one during renovation. Electrical service is minimal, and buyers should expect a substantial interior renovation. For the right buyer, this is a rare chance to preserve a piece of Kentucky history while creating a home uniquely your own. An adjoining 2.912-acre tract is available to the left of the home for an additional $36,000. Whether you're searching for a historic restoration, weekend project, or the perfect mini farm, this unique property offers affordability, scenic beauty, and the chance to restore this timeless farmhouse!
