For the first time, this historic 1850s Rudd family property is now available for sale. Settled by Union supporters from Tazwell, VA, the family built log homes and relied on the land’s bounty for sustenance and healing. Mr. Rudd bred Mountain Pleasure Horses, used for both riding and farmwork, embodying the property’s self-sustaining heritage. Green Rudd, born in 1896, was a resilient farmer and cattleman, making 50-mile horseback trips to market. In the 1950s, he became Magoffin County's first Republican Court Clerk, expanding the estate to 670 acres. Today, this approximately 660-acre tract offers untouched forests, fields, rare wildflowers, a 180-year flowing spring, and abundant wildlife, including songbirds and elk. A 2024 timber cruise values standing timber at $1.8 million. Featuring two creeks and located off the Mountain Parkway, this unique property offers a rare chance for your own compound, homestead, or hunting ground. Selling by deed boundary, not by acre. Don’t miss this incredible opportunity!
