With approximately 70 acres in pasture and the remaining acreage in timber, you have the ability to run some livestock AND also have a place to hunt the wild turkey, whitetail deer, or any of the other critters that call Ozark County home and you might enjoy having over for dinner...but only in the specified seasons set forth by the Missouri Department of Conservation of course.Details on the home: This elegant 3 bed, 2 bath, 1 story Ranch home was built in 2000 and has 2392 sq. ft of living space.
