Opportunities to own a truly complete Ozark property in Franklin County are becoming increasingly rare, and this exceptional 78 acre recreational and residential property delivers everything buyers are searching for in today’s land market. Located at 4079 Highway K just outside Sullivan, this turn-key country retreat combines a charming manufactured home, multiple outbuildings, live water, mature hardwood timber, productive pasture, outstanding hunting opportunities, and immediate access to some of eastern Missouri’s most sought-after outdoor destinations. Positioned in a scenic creek valley in the heart of the Missouri Ozarks, this property consists of two parcels totaling approximately 78 acres and offers an ideal blend of recreation, functionality, and long-term investment appeal. A private drive leads you into a picturesque setting where a charming country home is tucked into the valley floor, surrounded by timber, open pasture, and the peaceful sounds of flowing water. The setting is exactly what buyers envision when searching for Missouri recreational land with a home, live water acreage, or a private hunting retreat. One of the defining features of this Franklin County property is beautiful Brush Creek, a tree-lined live-water creek that flows through the farm, creating year-round beauty, dependable wildlife habitat, and a natural corridor for deer and turkey movement. A natural spring adds another valuable water source, enhancing the property's functionality for wildlife and livestock. Brush Creek joins the Meramec River less than a mile away, placing some of Missouri’s most recognized floating, fishing, and recreational waters just moments away via Meramec State Park. The land offers exceptional diversity. Approximately 56 acres are covered in mature Ozark timber, creating bedding cover, mast production, and natural travel corridors for wildlife. Rolling ridges transition into draws, creek bottoms, and edge habitat that serious hunters seek. Approximately 20 acres of pasture provide versatility for horses, livestock, food plots, hay production, or expanded recreational development. For hunters, this property sits in an area known for exceptional whitetail deer and turkey hunting. The combination of live water, hardwood ridges, edge habitat, and access to public ground creates year-round wildlife movement. Even more attractive, the property directly adjoins Little Indian Creek Conservation Area, giving direct access to additional acreage for hunting, hiking, and exploration. Outdoor recreation extends far beyond the property lines. Meramec State Park, Meramec Conservation Area, Pea Ridge Conservation Area, and sections of Mark Twain National Forest are all nearby. Multiple outbuildings provide storage, workshop space, equipment housing, hobby opportunities, and future customization. Three wells are strategically located across the property, providing reliable water sources that add long-term utility and flexibility for residential, agricultural, or recreational use. A historic house adds character and additional possibilities. Despite its peaceful setting, the property offers convenient access from Highway K and is just minutes from Sullivan and St. Clair. Whether you are searching for Missouri hunting land for sale, a live-water farm in the Ozarks, a private retreat, weekend escape, or legacy property, this Franklin County offering checks all the boxes. Properties with this combination of live water, mature timber, pasture, improvements, public land access, and an established residential setting rarely reach the open market.
