About This Property

Welcome to your own piece of paradise! This secluded 31 acre property is nestled just far enough out of town and yet close enough to still have all the conveniences within minutes. The rustic charm of this 4-bedroom, 2-bath, modern ranch style home is thoughtfully designed with maintenance-free fiber cement siding. The main floor great room with its vaulted tongue and groove pine walls and ceiling welcome you inside this comfortable home. The kitchen/dining room combo is just off of the great room with custom cabinetry, ceramic flooring and built-in appliances including a large refrigerator/freezer combo. The under-cabinet lighting is motion sensing and there is ample countertop space with a center island sink/bar area. The main floor laundry/mud room leads you from the kitchen to the oversized two-car garage for easy access to bring in your groceries. The split-floor bedroom design has 2 equal sized bedrooms for the children or guests on one side of the great room with a nice bathroom located between them and the primary suite is located on the other side. Both bathrooms include tub/shower units and ceramic tile floors and all of the bedrooms have ceiling fans for added comfort. The primary bedroom has a large walk-in closet as well. Up a flight of rustic cedar stairs with railing cut from trees on the property is the loft room where you can enjoy a good book or just a little me time. Down to the basement where there is still plenty of opportunity to design the additional space to meet your dreams you will find a fourth bedroom with built-in bunk beds and the beginnings of another bathroom with the shower stall already installed. Also, there is a full concrete safe room with a steel door for storage of valuables or use as a storm shelter. The walkout basement makes for easy access from the yard where you will find an outdoor wood burning furnace that heats the home and water as well. The property is fenced and cross fenced and has been surveyed and it has about equal amounts of pasture and woods. There is one runout shed located in the front pasture for your animals to shelter in, a separate pipe fenced calf pen and there are two small ponds on the property. The covered deck in the back is just out of the dining area and makes for a great place to grill those steaks or just sit and enjoy a quiet moment. Out front you have two covered porches to choose from as you sit and look out over the pastures and the rolling wooded hillsides that are all yours. There are too many features to cover that make this home the special place that it is so you will just have to come take a look for yourself. So, what are you waiting for?

Meramec float country of clear water, gravel bars, and timber

Crawford County is prime Ozark float country, drained by the Meramec River and its clear tributaries the Courtois and Huzzah. The landscape runs to timbered hills, pine and hardwood ridges, and gravel-bottom valleys, with much of the county bordering Mark Twain National Forest. Recreational buyers prize the cold, spring-fed streams for canoeing and smallmouth fishing, while the heavy hardwood cover holds strong whitetail and turkey. Thin, rocky uplands keep the working ground in pasture, hay, and cattle rather than crops. With Steelville and Cuba as regional hubs and easy interstate access, tracts here suit a river retreat, a hunting camp against public land, or a cattle place with recreation built in.
