Recreational Land with Home for Sale in Bagdad, Kentucky
970 Jacksonville Rd, Bagdad, KY 40003
Unlike anything else on the market, 970 Jacksonville Road offers 91.67 acres of privacy, woods, water and wide-open possibility. Set nearly half a mile from the road, this property feels hidden from everything while remaining convenient to Shelbyville, Frankfort, I-64 and I-71. Remodeled and expanded in 2023, the home now offers 2,260 finished square feet with 2 bedrooms, a separate guest room, 2 1/2 baths and an open floor plan built for gathering. The gourmet kitchen features stainless appliances and a gas range, while a freestanding wood-burning fireplace gives the main living space a warm, grounded feel. The renovation also included a new roof, windows and sliding glass door. Outside, the property opens into a private retreat filled with wildlife, mature woods and a creek winding through the acreage. A fenced garden area is ready for growing, while the new 30x45 detached garage offers a concrete floor and its own wood stove. Additional storage includes the attached garage and a large tobacco barn positioned near the entrance. This property can serve as a private full-time residence, weekend escape, recreational retreat or short-term rental. Homes like this are rarely available, and land with this much privacy is becoming even harder to find. Schedule a private showing and experience what cannot be captured in photos.
