Lot 179 is a rare one-acre flat, buildable lot for sale in Somerset, Kentucky, positioned along paved Genes Road with electric, water, and internet available at the road. This property offers a strong combination of affordability, privacy, and build-ready land—making it an ideal option for anyone wanting to build a home, cabin, barndominium, seasonal getaway, or long-term investment property in the Lake Cumberland region. Flat, usable acreage with utilities at the road is increasingly difficult to find near Somerset, and this parcel provides a straightforward layout for site prep and construction. Located in the Bend of Lake Shores area, this lot sits within minutes of the shopping, dining, and services of Somerset while still offering the quiet, outdoor-focused lifestyle that draws buyers to Pulaski County. The property's natural, semi-wooded setting provides privacy and a scenic building envelope without the excessive clearing costs associated with heavily forested tracts. With no HOA and no neighborhood dues, buyers benefit from flexibility while still remaining close to one of Kentucky's most desirable recreational destinations. The surrounding region is best known for Lake Cumberland, a nationally recognized lake offering over 1,200 miles of shoreline and year-round opportunities for boating, fishing, kayaking, swimming, and weekend adventure. Somerset has become one of southern Kentucky's highest-growth areas for buyers seeking vacation homes, investment properties, and full-time residences close to the lake. This lot positions you near multiple public boat ramps, marinas, parks, and outdoor attractions while keeping you within convenient reach of everyday necessities, medical services, and major employers in the Somerset market. For investors, this parcel checks the boxes that matter: buildable topography, paved road access, utilities at the road, strong short- and long-term demand for lake-area housing, and no restrictive HOA oversight. For homeowners, it offers the chance to design your own space in a location known for recreation, affordability, and long-term appeal. Whether your plans include a permanent residence, a secondary home, or a property to hold for future development, this one-acre tract offers practical value and high visibility in a competitive land market.
