Magoffin County
Big Woods Hunting Property
6866 Far Middle Fork Vancleve, KY 41385
Description
An absolutely beautiful mountain hunting/recreational property with a diverse habitat located only minutes from the small town of Salyersville. The quiet life of these mountains provides various habitat types on this property, from the upper slopes and low valley hardwoods to the meandering mid-elevation old mining benches that are now covered with lush green fields. Several mountain seasonal streams descend from the higher elevations down the main valley and the adjoining east valley, eventually merging into the year-round streams flowing north towards the Licking River. This tract boasts good timber in spots that could be utilized for a future income source. Do you like wildlife? Perhaps turkey, black bear, or giant whitetails in particular? These mature mountain bruisers typically bed high on the ridges and points for safety, then work their way down to the green fields to feed in the late evening, and man, do they grow big here! The large plateau flats on the northern portion of this property contain excellent cover and browsing but would be perfect for clearing and creating additional small food plots for drawing and holding the mature mountain bucks and strutting toms that call this area home. If it's turkey hunting you like, these big-wood long beards are plentiful along these mountain ridges and present a very rewarding challenge. You may even find the occasional bugling elk that wanders through, as this property is located in unit 4 of the KY elk zone. Whether hunting or hiking, the views from these hardwood ridge tops overlooking the valley are impressive by anyone's standard. A network of good internal dirt roads and old trails for ATV or horseback riding provide access to ascend from the valley floor to the ridge tops and throughout most of the property. In addition, this property also has an old country home that is currently occupied, that could be renovated and brought back to life or just left as is and utilized as a base for your hunting camp. Several other small structures accompany the home, such as outbuildings and a garage. The property even contains a lot on the south side of KY 378 that already has an installed water meter, leading you one step closer if you wish to bring in an RV. Breathe the clean mountain air and see this beautiful property for yourself. It won't be long, so call me now to arrange your private showing!
