Lake Views, Ark-Area Stays & a Kentucky Auction Wild Card

This Monday, November 2, Smoky Ridge heads across Kentucky for lake-view gathering places, Ark-area rentals and acreage with room to spread out. Presented by agent John Westergren, today's six-property lineup ranges from a furnished cedar-scented retreat to a historic two-home auction offering.

Lake Days for the Whole Crew

Listed at $649,900, 157 Lakeshore Drive in Eddyville pairs Lake Barkley views with seven bedrooms and three separate living areas across 4,080 square feet. Previously used for short-term rentals, it suits reunion-minded buyers or an owner who wants to revisit the former arrangement of living on the main level while renting other units.

Cedar, Stone and Year-Round Water

At $349,900, 992 Stonegate Drive in Burnside delivers the classic lake-house atmosphere: cedar, soaring ceilings and a stone fireplace beside a huge wall of windows. This furnished two-bedroom, one-bath retreat offers year-round lake views and a path to the water, suited to buyers seeking a smaller vacation home with prior Airbnb use.

Room to Roam Near the Ark

Priced at $500,000, 402 Cynthiana Street places an updated ranch on roughly 20 acres in the heart of Williamstown, minutes from the Ark and highway. A pond, spacious living room and large eat-in kitchen make this active short-term rental a fit for buyers who want country breathing room without giving up convenient access.

A Fishing Destination to Call Home

Sleeping Turtle Pay Lake & Air B&B at 213 KY 1232 in Gray is offered at $1.3 million, combining five existing Airbnb units with a pay lake and two private ponds on approximately 48 acres. An approximately 1,200-square-foot owner's home and bait shop/store and eatery space make this a hands-on hospitality prospect for an owner-operator.

Parkside Stays With Backyard Privacy

At $359,900, 12 Cross Street in Dry Ridge is an updated ranch beside Piddle Park and minutes from the Ark Encounter, shopping and the highway. A finished walkout basement, lower-level kitchenette and large patio in a private backyard suit buyers seeking an established rental with multiple places to gather; most furniture is negotiable.

Two Homes With a Church Past

At 496 State Highway 30 in Booneville, a former church and parsonage dating to the early 1900s now offer an open-plan home and a second house used as the Airbnb known as Linda's Victorian Rose. The roughly four-acre property includes a 24-by-40-foot barn and other outbuildings, making this auction offering worth a look for buyers drawn to history and a two-home setup.
