SORRY, THIS PROPERTY HAS BEEN SOLD!
Amazingly rare acreage at Cedar Gap Hollow with a long private driveway that comes off of a PAVED ROAD and leads to a large cleared site tucked into the property. Power is DIRECTLY on site. This unique tract also has some beautiful mature timber as well as frontage on the paved road AND a gravel road. The small creek bed toward the north side of the property offers some excellent opportunities for hunting for arrowheads, fossils and cool rock formations!
This is Tract 73 at Cedar Gap Hollow in western Wright County, Missouri. It is about 35 miles east of Springfield, Missouri. This property is surveyed with the corners marked and is 6.148 acres in size.
The photo above shows the cleared site on the property which might be ideal for building, camping or hunting. This site was specifically designed for privacy and views!
Stunning tract at Cedar Gap Hollow South, which is located toward the south side of Cedar Gap Hollow. This particular tract is one of the VERY FEW tracts at Cedar Gap Hollow that has an electric line DIRECTLY ON the property, giving you easy access to power if you ever need it. This is also one of the ONLY tracts at Cedar Gap Hollow that can be accessed via a PAVED County Road (Lucky Road) on its south end. It also has access to the north side via the gravel easement road system at Cedar Gap Hollow.
This large tract already has a nice private driveway that leads back to a cleared site that might be useful for camping, building or hunting. The private driveway and cleared site can be found on the south side of the property and are accessed via a paved county road (Lucky Road).
This well-located acreage is not too far from Springfield, Missouri but is 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 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: Almost all of the tracts at “Cedar Gap Hollow” are 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, and that can be necessary on gravel easement roads. This particular tracts DOES have direct frontage on a paved County Road, but please keep in mind that in order to drive down the long driveway that leads to the cleared site on the property, you would still likely want to have a four wheel drive (especially if it has been raining).
In the winter-time photo above, the truck is parked at the start of the private driveway which leads from Lucky Road into the property and ends at the large cleared site which is tucked several hundred feet into this private acreage. Power is directly on the south side of the property.
In the aerial photo above we are now looking down at the south end of the property. The red truck has just pulled off of Lucky Road and onto the private driveway on the property.
Cedar Gap Hollow South is an area of about 20 tracts located toward the south side of Cedar Gap Hollow (as shown on the map above). Since these tracts are located toward the south side of this rural development, they tend to have better access to Highway 60 than many of the other tracts within the development. This listing is for Tract 73 which is 6.148 acres in size and is located on the left side of the aerial photo above.
The map above shows the “Cedar Gap Conservation Area” which is less than two miles south of the tracts at Cedar Gap Hollow. Springfield, Missouri is about 35 miles to the west.
The little town of Seymour, Missouri is about 5 miles west of these properties. Seymour has a wonderful “small town” feel and offers several restaurants and gas stations.
PLEASE NOTE: Because we do offer a “Trade Policy” on the tracts sold through our website, and because we do sometimes lease tracts for a period of several weeks/months, it is possible that this tract was either sold and/or leased prior to this listing. Although we do try to provide current pictures/videos of all properties, we are not generally able to inspect all individual properties prior to offering them for resale (in the event that they had already been sold or leased). We always recommend that you make a personal visit to an available property before making a down payment, as it is possible that a previous owner or renter has left debris/supplies/stuff behind on the property when it was vacated.
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.

In the photo above we are facing west on Lucky Road at the south end of the property. The property is on the right side of the road in this photo. The building on the left was a restaurant/farm store before Covid (we hope it opens back up because their food was delicious). In the photo above we are parked just a few feet from the start of the private driveway.
In the photo above we are standing directly on the private driveway on the property. We are looking across Lucky Road.
The aerial photo above was taken while facing northerly while we look toward the property. The property is behind the little red building and to the right (the old restaurant/farm store). In this photo you can see how the private driveway winds deep into the property and leads to the large cleared site. The driveway and the site have been topped with gravel.
The photo below is a close-up of the survey map which shows this property (Tract 73, which is toward the lower left side of the map). This property is 6.148 acres in size. It borders the gravel easement road along its north side and it borders Lucky Road along its south side. Lucky Road is shown as “Old Highway 60” on the map below.
The maps below show an approximation of the boundaries of the property. For the precise boundaries please refer to the survey map above.
The winter-time aerial map above shows how this tract is situated. It borders the private easement road along its north side and it borders Lucky Road along its south side. The small creek bed crosses over the north side of the property, and the electric line crosses over the south side of the property. Other than the private driveway and the cleared site, the property is basically wooded.
This property is the highest toward its southeast side (where the private driveway begins). As you move northerly from Lucky Road the property stays fairly level along the driveway and the cleared site has been leveled for building and camping. As you go northerly from the cleared site the property slopes down until you get to the creek bed at the north side of the property.
The topo map above gives you an idea of the “lay of the land”. Topo maps can be confusing so be sure to check out the drone video (and other videos) in this listing, which will help to show how the land is situated.

This particular tract is located in a section of Cedar Gap Hollow which is known as “Cedar Gap Hollow South”. The tracts within Cedar Gap Hollow South are excellent for hunting. We had placed several “game-cams” on some of the tracts within Cedar Gap Hollow South (and in several spots throughout Cedar Gap Hollow) and we got numerous photos of multiple deer including quite a few large bucks. We also got photos of a large number of wild turkeys as well as some mischievous raccoons! Cedar Gap Hollow south is currently the only section of Cedar Gap Hollow that already has electric line(s) on site. This means that if you require electric it would generally be less expensive to have it run to a tract within Cedar Gap Hollow South.
This particular tract (Tract 73) is one of the very few tracts that already has an electric line running DIRECTLY across the property!
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”. Now go about 1/4 of a mile and take your first left onto “Lucky Road”. Follow Lucky Road until you see the private driveway on the right (a few hundred yards before the paved road ends). There are paved roads all the way to the south side of this property.
To drive to the north side of the property, continue going straight on “Connector Road” (instead of turning on Lucky Road). The road will turn to gravel. Take the gravel easement road northerly, then once you cross over the small creek bed you will turn left onto the other gravel easement road, which will lead you to the north side of the property.
If you are unable to download the free “MapRight” app and get it set up, then please be sure to print out the maps/directions from this listing page when you visit the property. Even with the “MapRight” app, it is an excellent idea to have the printed maps in hand when you make the trip.
We will be happy to help you get set up with MapRight and we would also be happy to email the maps/directions to you. Please contact us before making the trip to the property as there may be a locked cable/gate toward the start of the easement road. We will be happy to provide you with the combo for the lock.
Property within an hour of Springfield has been an excellent investment over the last several decades. As Springfield continues to grow the demand for tracts in this area continues to grow at a rapid rate. Lock in your property now, while you still can!

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 shared roadways (easement roads and County Road(s). 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 shared road(s). 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 (so long as the fence is not within the road easement).
In the photo above the truck is parked on the cleared site. The site was situated to take advantage of the awesome view to the north, as well as to enjoy the privacy of being several hundred feet back from the road.
In the aerial photo above we are looking southerly from the north end of the property. At the bottom of the photo you can see the gravel easement road which borders the north side of the property. Looking across the gravel road, you can see the little creek bed. As you cross over the creek bed and continue looking to the south you will notice that the land rises up and the levels out as you get to the large cleared site. In the distance you can see Lucky Road and beyond that you can see Highway 60.
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.
The aerial photo above shows the little creek bed which crosses over the north side of the property.
In the photo above we are checking out some of the mature timber on the south side of the property. Although most of the tracts at Cedar Gap Hollow were logged a few years ago, the majority of this middle and south side of this tract appear to contain quite a bit of large, mature timber.
