The Ideal "Balance" Location - Seclusion vs. Access: While this property offers the peaceful, "away from it all" feeling that lake properties are prized for, it is positioned just north of Monticello, KY.Proximity to Conveniences: You won't have to sacrifice modern necessities. Local pharmacies, hardware stores, restaurants, and a Walmart Supercenter are nearby in Monticello, and the larger city of Somerset, KY, is an easy drive away for expanded shopping and medical services. - Boating and Outdoor Recreation Marina Access: For boat owners, Beaver Creek Marina is only 7 miles away, meaning you can go from your front door to having your boat in the water in about 10 to 15 minutes.Nature at Your Doorstep: The 3/4-acre lot size provides plenty of space to maintain privacy while incorporating a custom home layout. The lot highlights the ability to hike directly from your property down to the shoreline, which is perfect if your family enjoys exploring the woods or lakeside beach combing. Community Infrastructure & Aesthetics Underground Utilities: This is a major premium for a rural/lake community. Underground lines protect the neighborhood's scenic views from unsightly poles and wires. More importantly, it offers superior reliability during heavy winter weather or summer storms when falling tree branches frequently knock out above-ground power lines.Security: Being a gated community adds a layer of security, keeping traffic limited mostly to residents and invited guests, which is ideal if the property will serve as a secondary seasonal home. Protective Restrictions & Low OverheadSensible HOAs/Fees: At $425 per year, the maintenance fee is incredibly low for a gated community with underground utilities.Value Protection: The minor restrictions (minimum 1,500 sq. ft. build, no mobile homes, campers, junk cars, or livestock) are standard for protecting your long-term property value. They ensure that neighbors build high-quality permanent structures, keeping the community aesthetics high without being overly restrictive on your architectural freedom.
