Land for Sale in McKee, Kentucky

Nestled in the rolling hills of Jackson County, Kentucky, this breathtaking ±456-acre property is more than just land - it is a piece of Kentucky history. Originally established in the 1960s as the Gray Hawk Dairy by the Christian Appalachian Project, the farm was created with a mission of bringing jobs, opportunity, and agricultural education to the local community. In the 1970s, the Purcell family expanded the operation into a thriving dairy that once milked nearly 200 head of cattle while continuing the traditions of community involvement, local employment, and educational outreach. Though the dairy ceased operations more than 20 years ago, the spirit of the farm still remains. Today, the property offers an extraordinary blend of history, recreation, agriculture, and natural beauty. Rolling pastureland, mature timber, 10 ponds, flowing creeks, and even a scenic waterfall create a landscape that feels untouched and timeless. Wildlife is abundant, with exceptional deer and turkey habitat throughout the farm making this a true hunter's paradise. Improvements include two homes that could serve as rental properties, hunting cabins, or guest houses, along with six barns, two silos, and the original milk parlor - remnants of the farm's storied past that still stand proudly on the property. Whether you envision a premier hunting retreat, working farm, recreational getaway, investment opportunity, or legacy property to pass down for generations, this remarkable tract offers endless possibilities in the heart of Eastern Kentucky.
