Tucked away just a few miles outside of Lesterville, MO with excellent access off Hwy 21, this beautiful 42-acre property offers the perfect blend of privacy, recreation, and country living in the heart of the Ozarks. The 2-story log home features 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a full basement, and a covered front porch ideal for enjoying the peaceful surroundings and abundant wildlife. Approximately 10 acres are open and suitable for pasture or hobby farming, while the balance of the acreage is covered in hardwood timber, providing excellent hunting and outdoor opportunities. Mill Creek runs through the front portion of the property, adding scenic charm. Improvements include a 30x40 pole barn and an outdoor wood furnace for supplemental heat. Located just minutes from the Black River, this property is perfectly suited for a full-time residence, weekend getaway, or small hobby farm operation. An added bonus is the older cabin (needs work) located near the highway frontage, complete with its own well and septic system.
