SORRY, THIS PROPERTY HAS JUST BEEN SOLD!
UPDATE: This tract has apparently been leased out for quite some time and is now available for sale! The person who was using this property at some point had a small portable cabin/shed delivered to the property and placed on the southwest side of the tract. We have been told that the little cabin/shed has now been removed from the property (it was never part of the property or the sale of the property).
As this property was used for several months, it is very likely that the folks who were using it have left behind some type of trash/debris/stuff and we have not yet visited the property to get any recent photos/videos.
The photos/videos within this listing are probably a couple of years old as they were taken before the property was first leased out. You may notice that someone had started some type of construction work on the property by adding concrete piers in preparation for possibly building a cabin.
As we have not visited this property for quite some time we have no idea if the piers are still there or if they have been removed (they did not appear to be very solid anyway, so you probably would not want to use them for building a cabin).
As always, please do feel free to visit this property before making the down payment so that you can see exactly how it currently looks.
We have left the remainder of this listing page basically unchanged so you will be viewing the listing page that was created a couple of years ago, right after the private driveway and cleared site were installed on the west end of the property.
If you have any questions please just give us a call or send us an email and we will be happy to chat about the property!
Now, on the the original listing page for this private tract!
At some point, someone had started some type of “post and pier” foundation on the property, as you can see in the photo/videos below:
They had installed some concrete pillars which were probably intended to be part of a foundation.
Most of the videos/pictures in this listing were taken before the pillars were installed but we have added a short video below which shows the pillars/work on the property:
8 acres – Owner financed acreage w/ partial foundation? Very cool! – ID#CG56 – InstantAcres.com
The rest of the videos/pictures in this listing were taken BEFORE the foundation/pillars were installed on the property.
“Jumbo” tract at Cedar Gap Hollow! – 8.2 Acres property with excellent deer and turkey population.
Very 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.
This particular tracts is located within a special section of Cedar Gap Hollow which we call “The Ridge”. Most of the tracts at “The Ridge” border a long ridge along at least one side, which is one of the highest points in the Ozarks. That gives these properties a view that you and your family will enjoy for years to come!
This property is also excellent for hunting and recreation (as well as being buildable), but if you have been looking with a property where you can drink your morning coffee while admiring a spectacular view, then you may have just found it!
“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” makes use of a minimum maintenance gravel easement road system. Please use a four wheel drive when visiting any of the tracts within the development. If the weather has been bad, make sure you have a GOOD four wheel drive (or wait for the weather to improve).
In the aerial photo above we are looking south over the property. This private tract has road frontage along three sides and offers numerous potential areas for hunting, building and camping.
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.

About the free “MapRight” app that you can use to help you explore your property:
If you download the free “MapRight” app to your phone or tablet then it is very easy to use it to locate your property. After you have the app on your phone/tablet simply go to the listing page for your property (on whatever device you have downloaded the app to) and locate the actual interactive map on the listing page for the specific property. Toward the top left corner of the Interactive Map you will see a link that says “View Full Screen”. Click on this link and the webpage will ask you if you want to open the Interactive Map within the app (which must already be on your phone/tablet). After you say “Yes” to this it will ask permission to access your GPS (this is necessary and your GPS must also be on). After that, the interactive map should open up within the “MapRight” app on your screen AND there should be a colored dot on the map to indicate right where you are. It is BY FAR the best way to drive to the property and to explore the boundaries. Give us a call or send us an email if you have questions about this. Also, our office is only about 15 minutes west of Cedar Gap Hollow and if you stop by we will be happy to help you get it all set up on your phone or tablet.
You do NOT need any type of subscription to “MapRight” in order to use the app. In fact, many people tell us it works better if you do NOT get a subscription or any for any type of membership. Just download the app and then follow the instructions above. And remember, we are here to help if you have trouble getting it to work!
PLEASE NOTE: Recently, we have been told that MapRight has changed their program and that they now require a subscription to use it as shown above. If this is true, then you could potentially get a free “trial subscription” to see if it is suitable for your needs.

This particular tract is located in a section of Cedar Gap Hollow which is known as “The Ridge at Cedar Gap Hollow”. The tracts within The Ridge are very private and are excellent for hunting. We had placed several “game-cams” on several of the tracts within Cedar Gap Hollow 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 “The Ridge at Cedar Gap Hollow”. This listing if for Tract 56 which can be found toward the left side 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 (keep going straight off of Connector Road). 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. Now proceed along the easement roads to the property.
