OVERVIEW

The Gibson Company is pleased to exclusively offer 1,464± acres of Appalachian mountain land in Lee County, Kentucky — a rare large-acreage assemblage combining premier hunting ground, standing hardwood timber, and mineral rights, priced at just $1,195 per acre. The property consists of six parcels near Beattyville, the Lee County seat, with public road access via KY-399. It sits adjacent to the Daniel Boone National Forest and inside Kentucky's Elk Restoration Zone — home to one of the largest free-ranging elk herds east of the Mississippi. Wildlife on and around the tract includes trophy-class white-tailed deer, wild turkey, black bear, elk, ruffed grouse, and small game, making this one of the top big-game settings east of the Mississippi. TIMBER: Mature Appalachian hardwoods throughout the tract — poplar, oak, walnut, cherry, and maple. Regional hardwood markets remain strong, and a formal timber cruise will establish documented dollar value. A timber sale prior to or after closing can meaningfully reduce the buyer's effective land cost. MINERALS: Seller conveys mineral rights to the extent held. Lee County sits within the Appalachian coal and natural gas basin; potential subsurface assets include coal, natural gas, oil, and rare earth minerals. Title search recommended. DEVELOPMENT UPSIDE: Large contiguous mountain acreage under single ownership eliminates assembly risk for large-footprint users. The cool Appalachian climate and low land basis — a fraction of comparable tracts in Ashburn, VA or Atlanta, GA — position the property for data center and tech infrastructure consideration, as well as glamping resort, private retreat, and eco-tourism development against stunning Appalachian ridgelines. LOCATION: 82 miles to Lexington, KY; 132 miles to Knoxville, TN; 158 miles to Cincinnati, OH. Eastern Kentucky Regional Airport (Hazard) nearby. All information believed accurate but not guaranteed. Buyer to verify all data. Mineral rights conveyed to the extent held by seller — title search recommended. Acreage is approximate (±).
