Bellefonte, KY

Perched on a scenic plateau just northwest of Ashland, Bellefonte is a small, peaceful community of fewer than a thousand residents. Much of the town centers around the Bellefonte Country Club, giving the neighborhood a park-like atmosphere with its golf course, tennis courts, and clubhouse. You'll still find historic landmarks like the old iron furnace site and Bellefonte Presbyterian Church, but the real draw today is the quiet, low-traffic residential setting. Families send their kids to the well-rated Russell Independent schools in neighboring towns, and everyday essentials are never far away, with Ashland’s hospitals, dining, and retail just a short drive down the hill.
