SORRY, THIS PROPERTY HAS BEEN SOLD!
Please Note: On many of the maps/videos/pictures in this listing we refer to this property (which is Tract 33 at Cedar Gap Hollow) as being “6 acres” in size. The survey has now been completed, and this special property is a full 7.093 acres in size. Sorry for any confusion!
Well-located tract not too far from Springfield, Missouri but still VERY private and rural. This acreage is located in a small Rural Development called “Cedar Gap Hollow” which is located within 3 miles of the popular “Cedar Gap Conservation Area” and only about 35 miles from Springfield, MO.
“Cedar Gap Hollow” is one of our “Homesteader Friendly Rural Developments”. This simply means that the standard Property Covenant requiring a minimum 600 square foot concrete foundation for a residence does NOT apply to the tracts at “Cedar Gap Hollow”. If you have been waiting for a property for your “tiny home” or for your “shipping container home” then you may have finally found what you are looking for!
PLEASE NOTE: “Cedar Gap Hollow” is accessed via private gravel easement roads. A four wheel drive is highly recommended for all tracts at Cedar Gap Hollow. A four wheel drive not only gives you much more traction, but it generally gives you more clearance than a two wheel drive vehicle, which can be necessary on gravel easement roads. In the case of this VERY PRIVATE tract, you will definitely need a four wheel drive truck or suv to get to the south side of the property (please do NOT drive a car or a two wheel drive vehicle). To get to the north side of this property, you will need a side-by-side or a four wheeler as the trail that leads to the north side is VERY rough!
This special tract has been leased out for several years, and is now available for sale. Most of the pictures/videos in this listing were taken 3-5 years ago (before the property was leased out). The pictures/videos do show the property accurately but we think that it actually looks quite a bit better now than it did several years ago. About 5 years ago there was some logging done in the area and it appears that most of these pictures/videos were taken shortly after the logging had been done, which is always when a property is at its “worst”. Now that a few years have passed, much of the brush/limbs left by the loggers will have rotted away, and the younger trees will have had several years of excellent growth (since they have not had to compete with some of the commercial-sized trees that were removed with the logging).
Although we do not have current videos of the property, if we are able to get some then we will post them to this listing page!
In the winter-time photo above we are checking out the little creek bed at this large tract.
In the aerial photo above you can see the creek bed in the lower right corner. If you look about 100 feet up and to the left of the creek bed, you will see the unique “rock overhang” on the property.
The hunting and wildlife watching opportunities in this area are EXCELLENT with a large population of white-tailed deer as well as wild turkey. This property could also be suitable for off-grid building, homesteading, camping and recreation.

This tract has a gravel creek bed which cross right over it. This is not a year around creek but it does seem to at least have pools of water in it much of the time (the deer love the creek).
The map above shows how this tract is situated. It borders the private easement roads along its south and north sides. This is Tract 33 at Cedar Gap Hollow. Remember, it is actually a full 7.093 acres in size (we have not yet updated the maps).
This property is the lowest by its south side (at the creek bed) and it rises up as you move to the north.

This particular tract is located in a section of Cedar Gap Hollow which is known as “Cedar Gap Hollow West”. The tracts within Cedar Gap Hollow West are very private and are excellent for hunting. We had placed several “game-cams” on some of the tracts within Cedar Gap Hollow West and we got numerous photos of multiple deer including quite a few large bucks (and dozens of does). We also got photos of a large number of wild turkeys as well as some mischievous raccoons!
The map above shows the tracts at “Cedar Gap Hollow West”. This listing if for Tract 33 which can be found toward the top of the aerial photo above.
DIRECTIONS: To get to the property from Springfield, Missouri just go east on Highway 60 from about 30 miles to the town of Seymour. Now continue heading east on Highway 60 for about 5 miles and look for the road going north off of Highway 60 which is called “Connector Road”. As a landmark, you will see Highway O going south and this is where you will go NORTH onto the “Connector Road”. Go north for about 1/8 of a mile on the “Connector Road” and then the gravel easement road will begin. Take the gravel easement road northerly to the property. As soon as you are on the gravel easement road you will see a couple of older homes on the left side of the road, as soon as you pass these homes you will be within Cedar Gap Hollow.

Cedar Gap Hollow Property Covenants
All of the tracts at Cedar Gap Hollow have setback distances from the easement road(s). These setback areas are also designated utility easements so that all owners shall have the option of electric service. All buildings, homesites, parking areas, storage areas, etc. must be at least 100 feet from the centerline of the easement road (this area acts as a privacy setback as well as a utility easement).
Fences/gates may not be placed within 50 feet of the centerline of the easement road(s) as this area is a designated road easement area. Although there is a 30 foot setback for building/storage from the sides and rear of each tract you CAN fence directly up to the sides and rear of each tract.
In the photo above we are standing under part of the rock overhang on the property.
In the aerial above we are looking northerly over the property. This photo was taken about two years ago (before the property had been leased out for about two years). The brushpiles that you see in the photo above have now been burned which has created a nice area on the south end of the property.
You will find thousands of ancient rocks within the creek bed on this property. The creek bed appears to be loaded with fossils and other interesting rock features. The photo below is a neat rock we found on the north side fo the creek bed. It is covered with thousands of small crystal that glistened in the sun (but we just were not able to capture that in the photo).
This tract represents an excellent opportunity for building your own off-grid home or cabin as there are no building permits required in this area! You and your friends/family can build your own cabin without permits or inspections.
