Ranch Farmhouse with Pond on 20 Acres in Ulysses, Kentucky π² ($215,000)
This property is an excellent example of how much land and privacy are still attainable in eastern Kentucky. Set on 20 acres, the ranch-style farmhouse offers a comfortable home base surrounded by nature, with enough space to support multiple uses over time.
Built in 2013, the home provides three bedrooms and two bathrooms, along with a clean, efficient layout designed for low-maintenance living. The interior favors practicality, making it easy to live in year-round or maintain as a secondary residence. A bonus room adds flexibility for storage, office use, or hobbies.
The land is where this property truly stands out. Established trails wind through the acreage, and a private pond adds both scenic and functional value. Whether used for recreation, light homesteading, or simply as a long-term land asset, this is acreage that feels usable rather than ornamental.
Properties like this appeal to buyers who want space, control, and long-term flexibility without being completely disconnected from services.
