Welcome to a secluded 205-acre Ozark retreat where nature, recreation, and privacy come together in one breathtaking package. This property is rich in natural water features, with wet-weather creeks and numerous springs flowing throughout the landscape. Two scenic ponds near the cabin offer the perfect spot to fish or relax after a day outdoors. At the heart of the property sits a beautifully renovated 1,264 sq ft rustic cabin featuring 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom--ideal for a hunting lodge, weekend escape, or full-time residence. A large pole barn and workshop provide plenty of space for equipment, tools, and storage, while a separate hay barn adds versatility--whether you need extra storage or a high vantage point for deer hunting from the hayloft. Spend evenings by the firepit sharing hunting stories, or explore the extensive riding trails crisscrossing the property by UTV or horseback. The land is loaded with mature hardwoods--white oak, black oak, and red oak--and the fertile bottomlands are a treasure trove for arrowheads and morel mushrooms. Wildlife is abundant, with tom turkeys strutting through the timber and mature whitetail deer roaming the hills. The property includes an enclosed deer blind and established food plot fields to support serious hunters. Plus, it adjoins 2,000 acres of private land, enhancing seclusion and hunting opportunities. Located in Texas County--consistently one of Missouri's top counties for whitetail harvest--this is a true recreational gem. Just 2.5 hours from St. Louis and under 2 hours from Springfield, it's easily accessible yet worlds away from the hustle and bustle.
