Enormous 45 acres at Hurricane Creek in the Ozarks! – ID#HC03

SORRY, THIS PROPERTY HAS BEEN SOLD.

Very large 45 acre tract located just a few miles from Bryant Creek in Ozark County, Missouri. This private acreage is located between the towns of Ava, West Plains and Gainesville, Missouri.

This wooded tract has County Road frontage along its entire east side, power DIRECTLY on the property, excellent views and dozens or private sites for building, camping and hunting. A named creek (Hurricane Creek) runs directly across the property. Hurricane Creek flows into Bryant Creek, just a couple of miles to the east. Bryant Creek is one of the most popular rivers/creeks in the Ozarks for fishing, floating, swimming and canoeing.

Hurricane Creek itself is a very small creek and is not a “year around” creek, although it may have pools of water in it throughout the year.

This huge private tract is 45 acres in size. In the aerial photo above we are looking down on the property. You can see the power line and county road frontage on the property. This property was logged within the last year but it was not “clear cut” and there are thousands of trees remaining. The aerial video, ground video and pictures in this listing are very recent and they do show the property accurately.

In the aerial photo above we are looking down on Hurricane Creek. It is a true Ozark creek with a mixture of rock and gravel base. Although it does not flow year around, it may have pools of water in it throughout the year. As you may know, it is very hard to find land with a named creek/creek bed on it!

On this listing page you will find numerous videos, maps and pictures of the property. To explore the property and the area please check out the interactive map below!

Please refer to the interactive map above for additional property views and information. Please note that the boundary lines and measurements are approximate. This interactive map is fairly 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.

We can actually email you a link for this specific “MapRight” interactive map of the property. You just need to download the free “MapRight” app to your phone or tablet and then we can email you the link for this specific map. This is VERY nice for driving to the property as you will know right where you are as well as where the property boundaries are located. If you download the free app and we email you the link, then not only will you have the interactive map on your phone or table, but there will be a colored dot to indicate right where you are. It is VERY useful the first time you drive to the property and also for exploring the property. You MUST download the free “MapRight” app and then contact us to email you the link for this specific map, otherwise the colored dot will not appear on your map and it will be much less useful when visiting the property.

This aerial map above shows the approximate dimensions of the 45 acres, which is Tract 3 at “The Tracts At Hurricane Creek”. This large acreage borders the county road for about 145 feet along its entire east side. You are welcome to create a private driveway coming off of the county road. You will find several trails on this large tract but in order to really improve the value of the property you could create a new trail leading from the county road back to the west end of the property.

Although this tract could be excellent for hunting, camping and recreation it can also be used for building a home or a cabin, as electric is already directly on the property (shown as the dashed line on the map above). As you can see on the maps, Hurricane Creek flows directly across the property and you actually own BOTH sides of the creek bed.

The topo map above shows how the property lays. It is the highest on its east side by the county road. As you go to the west from the county road the land stays fairly level for several hundred feet, it then slopes down (steeply in some areas) as you move toward the creek bed. As you continue west across the creek bed the land slopes back up and then it levels off toward the middle, with a very large flat area. It then slopes down again to another creek bed (un-named creek bed) and then rises up one last time, leveling off at the west end.

In the photo above we are parked on the county road facing east with the land on the right.

This tract is part of a very small rural development called “The Tracts At Hurricane Creek”. There are only about 8 tracts in this small development and this is Tract #3.  These tracts were logged within the last year and although they were not “clear cut” there are quite a few open areas on the property. See the very recent drone video and ground video in this listing to see exactly how the property looks.

As these tracts have been recently logged we have reduced the purchase price well below what it would be if the property had not been logged. The fact that the tracts have been logged actually opened up some stunning views that were not available prior to the logging. It also opened up several areas that could be turned into pastures, gardens or huge open areas for building and camping. Also, the thousands of mid-sized trees on the property will now grow VERY quickly as they no longer have to complete with the larger timber for sunlight and resources.
