Property Description
Discover a premium, recently surveyed 18.6 +/- acre Ozark retreat in the Fairdealing area of Ripley County, Missouri. Clearly marked and ready for immediate possession, this tract sits north of Highway 160, roughly 3 miles down Highway BB where the blacktop meets maintained gravel. It offers exceptional accessibility with extensive county road frontage, a dedicated utility easement, and road-based electric access—making it ideal for a future cabin or camper hookup.
This turnkey hunter's paradise stands out for its impressive natural aesthetics, featuring unique rock formations, boulders, and excellent maturing Ozark timber with clearly defined boundary lines. The land provides dense cover for holding alongside seasonal creeks and wet-weather runoff that serve as vital natural travel funnels for wildlife. Because this acreage sits directly in the path of the 1,404 +/- acre Mudpuppy Conservation Area and near the Little Black River, you benefit from a massive wildlife buffer packed with active deer sign and roosting turkeys, offering private-land exclusivity with endless room to roam. With world-class hunting, fishing, and floating at nearby access points, this property is a must-see.
Additionally, the seller owns adjoining parcels that may be made available for purchase in the future.
