Oh, give me a home, where the deer like to roam, and some woods where the turkeys can play. Where often is heard, the sweet sounds of a bird, and living's like heaven each day....Okay, now that I have a 19th-century cowboy song stuck in your head, let's talk about this phenomenal property that all the pioneers of yesteryear would have longed for. Situated far off the road on just over 7 acres, buffeted by woods and enveloped in tranquility, is where you'll find this slice of Webster County paradise. This home was thoughtfully designed, built, and has been enjoyed by a long-time, venerable builder and his family for the past 11+ years. And as you can imagine, no builder's home would be complete without a shop building, and the shop you'll find here does not disappoint! The 44' x 50' shop building is built like a house and is heartily insulated. There's a separate 200 AMP service, a half bathroom, a 40-gallon water heater, a propane forced-air furnace, plus a heat pump for A/C. Also, you'll appreciate the 9' overhead door on the main part of the shop, plenty of sturdy laminated wood shelving, and there's a 30' x 50' slab behind the shop already poured for further expansion. Back to the house now, and you'll be charmed by the covered front porch and level yard around the home that looks into the woods from just about every direction. The home features 3/4'' rough-sawn pine flooring, a beautiful stack stone wood-burning fireplace that is thermostatically controlled and ducted to all the bedrooms and the master bathroom. In the kitchen, you'll find deep, rich wood cabinetry that includes a pair of pantry cabinets, and the dishwasher was replaced in 2024. There's also a beautiful 19th century inspired pressed tin ceiling and cornice that comes from the world's premier decorative metal arts company in Nevada, Missouri https://wfnorman.com/ . On the back of the home is an all season sunroom that is flooded with natural light and overlooks the dense treeline behind the home. The roomy primary suite features a spacious walk-in closet, jetted tub and walk-in shower, and has a custom herring bone pattern tile floor. The basement can double as another living/bedroom suite with a full bathroom and a kitchenette/wet bar. All of this custom craftsmanship and quality is further improved by both the home and the shop getting a new roof in 2025! There's been over a decade of happy family memories from the current owner here, and this is truly a rare opportunity to get this kind of construction quality, shop building, and private location so close to town. Check it out soon and let this home become the sweet and timeless melody that sings to you!
