Welcome to Emerald Falls, a nearly 2,000 sq ft house & shop that overlooks a 171-acre paradise. At the driveway, where the blacktop ends, your privacy begins. With approximately 1.5 miles of shared boundary with Mark Twain National Forest, you'll have direct access to thousands of acres for exploring right out your back door. The land is loaded with character. Miles of trails wind through timber, open pasture, and creek bottoms, leading to park-like areas overlooking streams & seasonal waterfalls. Approx 45 acres are open in pasture and hay ground, and complete with 3 tire waterers, while the remainder offers hunting and recreation. The property also features 3 spring-fed ponds, a live creek, and additional year-round springs.The home was designed to take full advantage of the setting and is filled with natural light. The spacious kitchen includes stunning granite countertops, extensive cabinet storage, plenty of counter space, and a large pantry. The south-facing sunroom captures the winter sun and provides a peaceful place year-round while overlooking the land. The full-length east-facing porch offers sunrise views across the farm and is the perfect spot to relax and watch deer, turkey, or the occasional bear. The attached 2 car garage includes a built-in tornado shelter. A 30x40 shop with full apartment provides flexibility for guests, rental income, caretaker's quarters, or multi-generational living. Both the home and shop are serviced by one well, while maintaining separate electric meters & septics. Across Badger Road, a 3-acre parcel offers an incredible elevated view and an ideal location for a second home or cabin. Despite the private setting, it is conveniently located 12 min from Sparta, just over 20 min to Ozark, and only 30 min to Springfield. Whether you're looking for a working farm, hunting retreat, family compound, or forever home, this property offers a rare opportunity to own an exceptional piece of the Ozarks.Video:https://youtu.be/xnmkKoJ7
