Please refer to our interactive map above for additional property views and information. Please note that the boundary lines and measurements are approximate. This interactive map is BRAND NEW for us and if you have a chance we would love to have your feedback on it. Is it awesome? Is it great? Is it confusing? We would like to know!

Also, please note that on the interactive map it seems to work best if you click the “View Full Screen” option. Once you are in the “Full Screen” option you can select “Topo” to see a topographic map which does a good job of showing how the property is situated. The north part of the property (the open meadow) is basically flat. As you go south from the meadow you transition into the creek area and the across from the creek (on the south side) the land slpoes up. Although the view down by the creek is simply breath-taking, there are several other places on the property which could be excellent building sites. Building in the meadow would give you excellent views as well as easy access to electric, which runs across the west side of the meadow.

PLEASE NOTE: As with many properties on a true river/creek, most of this acreage is within the “100 Year Flood Plain”. The entire meadow on the north end would likely be within the flood plain. Several months ago we had an historic flood in the Ozarks and water was running over most of the meadow. Although the extreme north end may have been dry, if you did build in the meadow you would defintiely want to elevate your structure. Also, if you build a structure that requires a typical mortgage then the bank will require that you have flood insurance on the structure. The very southeast corner of the property rises up (see the topo map) and it would be out of the flood plain BUT this would be a very inconvenient building site.

The aerial map above shows the property’s boundaries as well as the approximate dimensions. The Vera Cruz Conservation Area is outlined in green. For more detail see the “close-up” aerial map farther down in this listing.

The sales price on this 3 acre tract is $34,500. With $500 down the monthly payments will be $365. This is about a 15 year payment schedule and an annual interest rate of 9 3/4%. With $1,500 down the interest rate drops to 7 3/4% and the payment drops to $315 a month. With $2,500 down the interest rate drops to 6 3/4% and the payment drops to $385 a month. With $5,000 down the interest rate drops to 5 3/4% and the payment drops to $250 a month. These payments are all based on about a 15 year payment schedule. Property taxes are only about $85 a year and are already taken care of for 2017. There are no prepayment penalties, no hidden fees and no balloon payments.

PLEASE NOTE that you have a full 12 months to ADD to your down payment in order to reduce your interest rate and payment amount!

In the photo above we have just pulled off of the county road are parked on the north part of the meadow on the 3 acre tract. You can see a strand of barbed wire which has been pulled across the driveway for privacy. 

 

MAP

The photo above shows a close-up look at the property, with its approximate dimensions. The yellow dotted line on the map is a trail which leads right to the water’s edge. PLEASE do not drive your vehicle past the meadow because when you get close to the creek it gets VERY SANDY and you are likely to get stuck! The best bet would be to park in the meadow and then walk the short trail to the creek. Bring your fishing pole and your canoe and spend the day!

The property is just a short drive from Ava, Missouri. Ava is a medium-sized town with a large Wal-Mart, lumberyard and numerous stores and restaurants.

From Ava just take Highway 14 to the east for about 9 miles, then go left onto AB Highway. Go about 4 miles on AB Highway and the road will turn to gravel and you will come to a fork in the road. Go left at the fork (this is County Road 230), cross the small concrete bridge and continue for about 1/4 mile. You will see an old red barn on the left and the entrance into the 3 acres is directly across the road from the old red barn (south side of the road). Feel free to unhook the strand of barbed wire and check it out.

If you plan to do some camping when you are out here you can stay at one of the free campsites in the Vera Cruz Conservation Area (or, just buy this property and camp next to the creek).
