377 Acre Private Estate! As you enter through the private gates you are greeted with a National Park feel, at least that's what all the guests say. The 1/4 mile drive opens up to cleared fields with picturesque views of the Missouri / Arkansas Ozark Mountains. The first building you come to is the 24'X70' barn built 2012 with concrete floors. The enclosed barn consists of 24'X40' and is divided into 2 sections all blown with 2.5'' closed cell insulation, 2 walk doors and 2 automatic overhead doors. One section of the barn has a mini-split unit, currently being used as an office space with an overhead storage area. Attached to the enclosed barn contains 3 covered bays (24'X10' each) with 3/4'' clean rock floor. As you drive past the barn you will come to the Garden Suite surrounded by an orchard (peach, plum, apple, pear trees and grapes), huge fenced in garden (asparagus, red raspberries, blueberries, tomatoes, pumpkins, strawberries and goji berries), with raised rock beds, a root cellar from the original homestead built in the 50's and landscaped rock walls all gathered from the property. The landscaped rock walls are beautifully covered in a mixture of flowers attracting bees, butterflies and hummingbirds.

The walls and ceiling are coveredin rough pine with 2 sliding barn doors covering the bathroom and utility room. Also has a covered 14'X8' concrete front porch. A fun stroll past the garden and through the flowers, down the oversized stone stair steps you will arrive at the Guest Cottage with plenty of parking in the front and rear of the home.

Home is heated and cooled with a mini-split with 2 heads. 25'X5' covered concrete front porch with an outside shower area laid with flat creek rock to give you the feeling of showering at the creek with a mountain view!Behind, but between the Garden Suite and Guest House is the chicken shed with matching exterior finishes. The chicken shed is 16'X12' and has two mini doors that the chickens use to roam their 1/8 acre fenced in area or leave the gate open and let them free range around the orchard. This shed is divided into 2 parts, 1 housing the chickens with a walk door and 2 small chicken doors, the other side is separated from the chickens to contain the food and a special area to raise small chicks with its own walk door and windows. Electric is installed for the winter months in case water heaters are needed. Now let's have some fun exploring the property. Talk about getting healthy! Whether you're walking your dogs leash free during your morning forest bathing or want to ride for hours on horses, utility vehicles or bicycles, this is a place with miles of cleared riding trails. The property is made up of mainly hardwood trees; walnut, red & white oak and hickory. The creek bottoms have lots of sycomore, birch and a few willows. Bring your baskets because there is always something to collect; wild black raspberries, black berries, gooseberries, elderberries, persimmons, dewberries, blueberries, mayapples and mullberries. Does this make you want to make your own wine or jellies and juices? Edible wild mushrooms can be found by the baskets full; Chanterelles, wood ear, oyster, lion's mane, lobster and lots and lots of morals. Keep your eyes peeled while you're having all this fun. Bears, river otters, coyotes, bobcats and foxes are just some of the funner wilder side of life you might spot. Oh ya, there's deer too. Continue on down the trail and you will find the cave. This is not a hole in the ground, but an original cave that opens up into a huge room that a side-by-side can drive in. It remains a constant temperature of 60 degrees. Have you ever had a dream about a cave home? Or a "cool" family gathering during the hot summer months in your "cool" cave? The only way to get there is by utility vehicles, horses or by foot. There is even a picnic table for a nice break during your exploration.Drive on past the cave and find a year round fed spring that keeps water in the creek during the hot dry months. Creek runs constantly during Fall, Winter and Spring. Two other springs also run year-round to feed the creek. There are two access gates coming into the property off of black top road. Main gate is located on Seiler Rd. and the other is Brunswick Rd. The main gate into the property is at the end of Seiler Rd. with a 40' road easement.There are several cleared areas that would make a wonderful homestead area as the property currently does not have a main home. There is even a cleared area overlooking the creek that would make for a breathtaking self-sufficient home. Also, located near Thunder Ridge and Big Cedar! You will enjoy Thunder Ridge Airshows & Fireworks!This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to own such a special piece of the Ozarks!
