20 Private Gated Acres Bordering National Forest on 3 sides! – ID#CC20

SORRY, THIS PROPERTY HAS BEEN SOLD!

Large and private 20 acre tract in Carter County, Missouri with DIRECT frontage on the Mark Twain National Forest on three sides! Hunt, camp and build on your private acreage and have DIRECT access to over 40,000 acres of National Forest for additional hunting, camping and recreation!

The photo above shows how this special property is situated. The green shaded area is the Mark Twain National Forest.

Not only does this property give you DIRECT ACCESS to over 40,000 acres of additional land…it is also gated for your privacy. This property is accessed via a Permitted Road through the National Forest which sits behind a locked gate. There are only two permits for this road (one for this 20 acres on one for the 20 acres directly south of it) so there are only two locks on the gate. Your lock is the bottom lock (please contact us for the combination).

The photo above shows the two locks on the private gate at the Permitted Forest Road. Your lock is the one on the bottom.

This gorgeous property is almost all wooded, other than a few natural clearings and some trails. The photos in this listing page were taken after a snowfall here in the Ozarks. By the time we got back to Springfield that afternoon, all of the snow had melted but we like a little snow in the photos!

This 20 acre tract offers a rare chance to access a huge amount of public land. Set up your camp, cabin or home and have DIRECT access to over 40,000 additional acres of land in the Mark Twain National Forest.

The sales price on this very special 20 acres is $74,500. With $2,500 down you will automatically get our reduced interest rate of 6 3/4% and the monthly payments will be $660. 

With $5,000 down the interest rate drops to 5 3/4% and the payment drops to $600 a month. These payments are all based on about a 15 year payment schedule.

Property taxes and the yearly road permit total only about $240 a year and this is already included in the monthly payment. There are NO hidden fees and NO prepayment penalties.

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! We want to give ALL of our buyers the opportunity to achieve the lowest interest rate and payment amount possible!

ALSO, if you decide to pay off your property (your loan to us) at any time within the next 5 years you will get a 10% DISCOUNT off of the purchase price of the property. On this property that would save you $7,450 for an early payoff!

In the photo above we are standing on the Forest Service road and the truck is parked at the start of the gated road (gate is open). This photo was taken on our way out so the truck is leaving the Permitted Road and about to turn onto the Forest Service Road.

This property appears to have a large amount of timber including white oak, red oak, pine, hickory  and many other species. Please note that the timber may not be cut or sold until the property has been paid for in full (written exceptions can often be made for creating trails/building sites).

There are multiple areas on the property that may be suitable for building, camping or hunting. Set up your campsite or home on the property and you can spend a lifetime exploring the National Forest which is basically your back yard (and your front yard)!

You will want to download the “MapRight” app to your phone or tablet before you visit the property, as it will make things go smoothly on your first trip (just follow the directions in the tutorial).

Most of the south side of the property appears to be quite level. It slopes down gradually as you move to the north and the topo map indicates that it slopes down more steeply as you get toward the east side.

The topo map above shows the “lay of the land”. The land is basically level art the southeast side (where the road come into the property). There is a small “valley” which runs west to east across the north part of the property.

This property DIRECTLY borders the Mark Twain National Forest. This is a rare opportunity to have excellent access onto THOUSANDS of acres of land, right at your doorstep. The National Forest can be used for hunting, camping, trail riding, fishing and canoeing (in the numerous creeks and rivers) as well as other recreational activities.

If you have been looking for a quality tract of land for a while then you already know how hard it is to find acreage adjoining public land. This property is one of the VERY FEW tracts we have had with direct frontage on the National Forest on multiple sides. This is the ONLY tract we have ever had that has a Permitted Road with a locked gate, giving you an amazing amount of privacy!
