Description
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.
