You hear it said often, but rarely does it ring true, "Once in a lifetime opportunity." With this truly spectacular Ozark Mountain Ranch, it couldn't be truer. What a stunning and unique chance to own some of the most special ground I've ever laid my eyes on. No matter what your checklist is, this one leaves no box empty Quality pastures, incredible hunting, massive springs, fantastic views, ultimate privacy, and more. The obvious features you search for in real estate typically start with location, and this one doesn't disappoint. The proximity to the beautiful attractions this region is known for is convenient, to say the least; a short drive to the Buffalo National River, the famous White River, Bull Shoals Lake, and the Ozark National Forest to name a few. As you pull into the ranch at the end of the county road, you are immediately greeted with a park-like setting on a beautiful drive, massive oak trees, manicured grounds, a large pond, a lovely small shop home, and more. As you begin your journey, an 8-bay machine shed, 30X40 metal shop, massive 140X50 workshop with dual overhang dry storage, tool sheds, and more provide ample storage for equipment, implements, and more. The integral road and trail system allows quality access to virtually every acre. Approximately 220 acres of open quality fescue, Bermuda, and native grasses make up the impeccable pastures. The perimeter is fully fenced with barbed wire and provides the security and peace of mind that any rancher needs. Metal pipe corner posts, gates, and corrals all ensure long-lasting use and maintenance-free operation. Phenomenally constructed metal working pens, tubs, lanes, chutes, round pens, and more make up the excellent working facilities, all located near the home and barn. Recently, the ground supported a healthy cattle herd, running nearly 100 cow/calf pairs. Numerous fenced driving and moving lanes have been installed for easy transportation, navigation from one pasture to another, and moving of livestock when desired. The quaint metal shop home is a full 2-bedroom two bath with a small living/dining/kitchen and also sports a nice, covered porch overlooking the beautiful scenery. No detail was left out in the building of this incredible ranch so how could it be any better? The second part of this "dual purpose" ranch is the recreational phenomenon that makes up the rest of this truly unique mecca. Hundreds of acres of mature and dense hardwood timber fill the valleys and hillsides. This stand is mostly made up of White Oak and Red oak but contains some Walnut, Hickory, and many other hardwood species. This diversity is also complimented by quality browse, cedar thickets, dense bedding areas, and incredible understory for more attraction to the resident wildlife. As you can imagine, the hunting for whitetail deer, turkey, black bear, and more is simply amazing. Decades of harvests include large whitetail bucks, big tom turkeys, and more. Multiple springs pour from the ground all throughout the property, providing ample water sources for game and man alike. Hampton Creek, a large year-round freshwater creek, flows through the valley and is met with a stunningly massive year-round spring originating in the middle of the land below the gorgeous bluffs. This spring produces so much water it creates a creek cutting through the heart of the property and boasts over 1.5 miles of creek and spring frontage on both sides! As you make your way around the miles of ATV trails, you also find an array of quality hunting locations with openings, thickets, food plots, and more. Endless exploring and hiking opportunities are at your fingertips. They will undoubtedly lead you to the huge sheer bluff faces, multiple caves, and large, wooded valleys and are sure to please any true explorer or nature lover. The spring produces an immense amount of crystal-clear freshwater flows year-round and is situated in the heart of the hardwoods and rock faces, embodying the Ozarks' essence. The fingerprints of love, hard work, God's unmatched design, infrastructure, natural water, dedication, brilliant layout, and pure raw beauty all come together, creating a symphony of tranquility and beauty like you've never witnessed.
