What $310,000 Buys You in Kentucky: The Old McDonald Farm

Yes, Old McDonald had this farm.

The century-old farmhouse was renovated in 2014.

The three-bedroom residence – relatively small, at 1,164 square feet – received a facelift two years ago. As a result, the 1914 farmhouse boasts a new roof and hardwood floors, two updated baths, and a renovated kitchen.

Yes, an old McDonald had this farm. Several old McDonalds, actually, since the homestead’s been in the family for more than a century. The most recent generation, a brother and sister, inherited the place when their mother passed away in 2014.

No one has farmed the land commercially since the current owners’ great-great uncle, John McDonald, died in the late 1940s. But the siblings did rent the property to tenants who kept horses, grew hay, and maintained an extensive kitchen garden. If you have especially deep pockets, you can purchase an additional 145 contiguous acres – 40 of them tillable – for $415,000 more.
