SECLUDED OZARKS RETREAT30 ACRES NEXT TO NATIONAL FOREST This is an elevated, mostly wooded tract with a large cabin; it borders and overlooks the Mark Twain National Forest. The property has over 860' of frontage on Missouri Hwy 76, which is rated one of the best scenic drives in the US. The driveway passes through woods and beside two small pastures before reaching the cabin, which is on the opposite side of the property from the highway. The cabin site is at almost 1500 feet elevation, and surrounded by spectacular, unobstructed views, as the terrain falls off significantly around three sides. The owner-built cabin has been expanded over the years, and several areas need repair to present well, There are three-bedrooms, two baths, a large great room, a central sitting/dining room, a breakfast area in the kitchen, and an unfinished bonus room upstairs. There's a small deck in the front; in the back a covered sitting porch and larger, elevated deck overlook the surrounding hills. A large wood-burning furnace in the centrally-located kitchen provides winter heat. There are ceiling fans in all rooms, and several small a/c units are installed for cooling in summer. The deep-well pump and pressure tank are housed in a small shed near the front of the cabin, and a well-framed barn sits slightly downhill behind it; the barn has a floored loft for storage. Highway 76, which forms the Western boundary of the tract, follows a ridgeline and is at the highest elevation. A wide ravine isolates the SouthWest corner from the rest of the original 36-acre plot, and five acres there has been surveyed to be retained as a separate tract, with its own culvert installed at the highway for access. The small towns of Shell Knob and Cassville - four and ten miles away respectively - provide shopping and dining options fairly close by. The property is only a few miles from either Table Rock Lake or Roaring River State Park, both popular recreational and trout-fishing destinations; and
