SORRY, THIS PROPERTY HAS BEEN SOLD!
We are excited to be able to offer this rural “Homestead” on a beautiful, heavily wooded 5.02 acres tract of land with power and excellent access.
In the photo above we are looking at part of the “backyard” behind the cabin. The cabin is the blue structure on the right and the smaller structure on the left is an outdoor shower area (with an enclosed privacy area constructed of pine logs) and a detached bathroom area.
This totally unique property was set up as a Homestead for a small family and appears to have everything that was needed while it was used – the owners have moved to another state (about a year ago) and this special property is now available for sale. We have packed a HUGE amount of information into this listing including several LONG videos and a great interactive map, so please take your time to check out all of the information – and as always please let us know if you have any questions.
We have NEVER been able to offer a property like this and we may never be able to do so again. This beautiful wooded 5 acre tract has a small 1 bedroom cabin, a separate outdoor shower and detached bathroom area, a large garden area, a large and convenient “root cellar” as well as some type of rainwater collection system that appears to encompass over 1,000 gallons of water storage.
On the other side of the wall from the outdoor shower you will find the detached bathroom area which includes a toilet and a sink. There is a large window on one side of the detached bathroom and two of the other sides appear to have large open areas which were probably intended to be open in the summer and covered in the winter. Although the detached bathroom does not appear to have been used for quite some time, there is actually a small functioning solar power system within the bathroom.
We do not know if the detached bathroom is also hooked to the main power in the cabin, or if the solar power is currently the only power source for the detached bathroom. It would be fairly simple to run the actual power line to the detached bathroom if you wanted to do so (if that has not already been done).
Possibly the BEST part about this property is that although it appears that it was set up so that it could potentially be run “off-grid” if need be, it actually DOES have electric service with a meter and a power line which is run underground into a standard fuse box (breaker box) inside the cabin. If you are anything like us, then you love the idea of being “off-grid” but you also love the idea of having “grid power” as an option!
In the photo above we are looking at the “East Half” of the cabin. You can see the little kitchen area which appears to have a refrigerator as well as a sink. If you look at the wall on the right you can see the breaker box which serves the cabin.
The cabin appears to have a fairly large window air conditioner for cooling, and it has a beautiful wood stove which can be used for heating. The cabin appears to be insulated so it would also be possible to use a small electric heater in the winter if you didn’t want to use the wood stove.
The gorgeous wood stove in the photo above is located in about the center of the cabin and it would easily provide enough heat for the cabin in any weather.
The photo above shows the “West Half” of the cabin which includes the bedroom area and a closet area. Some of the furniture/items in the photos and videos remain in the cabin including the bed and the wooded kitchen table shown in one of the previous photos. The rocking chair in the photo above was removed as were some other small personal effects.
The cabin was intentionally designed with a very open layout and the ceilings were painted white to maximize the feeling of openness when you are inside.
This special tract has great access with direct frontage on a County Road (Sargent Road) as well as on a private easement road within the rural development of Pine Ridge. The easement road goes past the property and goes about half a mile to a pond within the development that can be used for fishing and recreation. This property is Tract 12B at Pine Ridge and it is heavily wooded with a gorgeous mixture of pine trees and hardwood trees. The property is the highest on the north side (where you will find the Homestead) and it slopes down as you go southerly with the topo map even showing that there is some type of small creek that crosses over the south end of the property (seasonal creek).
We rarely have an available property within Pine Ridge. Not only is this area well known for excellent hunting (white-tailed deer and wild turkey) but the tracts at Pine Ridge are also within about 5 miles of the Mark Twain National Forest which gives you over 50,000 acres of ADDITIONAL acreage for hunting, camping, fishing, trail riding and recreation (public land).
“The Tracts At Pine Ridge” 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 properties at “The Tracts At Pine Ridge”. 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! In fact, the folks who created the Homestead on this particular property specifically chose this tract within Pine Ridge because of its location, it gorgeous mixture of mature timber and the fact that this “Homesteader Friendly” development gave them the freedom to create their Homestead the way that they did!

The information (below) is the specific information about this tract, which is Tract 12B at “The Tracts At Pine Ridge”. It is about 5.02 acres in size and it borders the County Road (Sargent Road) along its north side as well as bordering the Easement Road along its northeast side (see the maps later in this listing to see how the property is situated).
The aerial photo above gives you a “bird’s eye view” of this heavily wooded acreage. In the photo the drone is over about the middle of the property and we are facing north. The roof of the cabin is just barely visible through the large trees. In the photo you can see a small bit of Sargent Road (which is mostly hidden by trees) and you can see the Easement Road which comes off of Sargent Road and goes east (right) down to the pond.
A while back we put up a couple of game cams at Pine Ridge and we got hundreds of photos of nice sized deer. This photo was from a game cam a few hundred yards east of this tract. Pine Ridge is located with Texas County, Missouri, which is consistently ranked as one of the top Counties for deer hunting in the state of Missouri. Texas County has a wonderful mixture of large wooded areas as well as rolling pastures, which is what tends to keep the deer and wild turkey in the area.

Although it probably goes without saying, the cabin, structures, and anything and everything related to the Homestead on the property is sold “As-Is” with no warranties of any type of kind. As we have not had any personal experience with the structures on the property we have no idea what may function perfectly and what may not.
As with any property that we sell, we do guarantee free and clear title to the property after it has been paid for in full, but we make no guarantees of any kind regarding any of the “man-made” parts of the Homestead/property (buildings, appliances, wiring, plumbing and anything else). You are welcome to come and view the property prior to making a down payment (we always encourage this) and all of our properties are sold on a “first come, first served” basis. You should fully expect that there will be things that need to be fixed/repaired/replaced on this property and budget yourself accordingly.
This tract has excellent access with direct frontage on the County Road (Sargent Road) along its north side as well as the private easement road along its northeast side. It is located only about two miles off a paved road (Highway AV).
On this property you find find many species of trees which may include pine, red oak, white oak, hickory, sycamore, walnut and more. The yard area around the cabin appears to contain a large number of very tall pine trees. In the photo above we are looking at a few of the trees behind the cabin (on the right you can see part of the outdoor shower).
The aerial photo above shows how this private acreage is situated as well as its approximate dimensions. The property borders the County Road (Sargent Road) for about 220 feet along its north side and it borders the private easement road for about 115 feet along its northeast side. The cabin and yard area can be found on the north end of the property and the driveway into the property comes off of the easement road and goes west into the trees.
As we mentioned earlier, power is directly on the property (including a pole and a meter-base). The power has been run underground into the cabin and the cabin has a newer style “breaker box” in the kitchen area.
VIDEOS!
Below, you will see a few videos which will help you to “explore” the property. The first video is a drone video which shows the property from the air. We launch the drone from the driveway on the property and we fly southerly and then fly around a bit before returning to the north side of the property:
The next video is a “ground video” where we briefly explore the cabin and the other structures on the property. Although this is a fairly long video we are really only getting a quick look at a small part of the property, but it should still be helpful:
In the next video (below) we use the “MapRight” (Land Id) interactive mapping program to explore the property and the area. It is not as exciting as a drone video but it does have a large amount of good information:
In the last video (below) we film the last few miles of the drive to the property. We begin at the end of Highway “AV” which is where the pavement ends and we keep the camera rolling until we have pulled into the driveway at the property:
As we mentioned earlier, the deer hunting in this area is some of best in the nation. Turkey hunting is excellent as well. On this tract you can hunt, build, camp, ride your four wheeler, shoot your gun and generally just relax and enjoy life.

The aerial photo above shows some of the Autumn colors on this beautifully wooded tract.
This property is very close to the private “Fishing Lake” at Pine Ridge (more of a “Fishing Pond”). – This “catch & release” lake might be a great place to teach your children/grandchildren to catch a catfish! – This lake is ONLY for the use of Pine Ridge property owners and their guests, making for a private and relaxing setting. To visit the pond you simply take the easement road to the east past the property and continue for about 1/2 a mile.

Within just a few miles of Pine Ridge you will find over 50,000 acres of National Forest which is generally open for hunting and recreation. Set up your cabin, campsite or home on your private tract at Pine Ridge and you can be hunting and exploring the National Forest within minutes (although you may not want to leave your private tract once you get set up). The map below shows The Tracts at Pine Ridge, relative to Springfield, Missouri (which is a little over an hour to the west) and a huge part of the Mark Twain National Forest (which is about 5 miles to the south). Branson, Missouri is about 1 1/2 hours southwest of The Tracts At Pine Ridge.
The map below shows the route to the property from Cabool, Missouri:
With a tract of this size you will have numerous potential spots for creating your dream hunting camp or building/camping site. You may choose to use the existing cabin for a home or a vacation spot, or you may choose to build a home in a different location on this large wooded tract of land.
Good quality land in Missouri has been a proven investment for many years. As the demand for top quality acreage continues to grow, the values continue to rise. Lock in your property now, while you still can!
This tract represents an excellent opportunity for expanding the existing cabin as there are no building permits required in this area! You and your friends/family can add on to your cabin without permits or inspections from the county!
As you can see in the photo above, the former owners spent many hours landscaping and improving this special property.
Quite a bit of time was spent creating the walking path(s) which are lined with small round gravel.
As we look at the photo above, it appears that there is some type of water collection system which may run into the water tanks located in the root cellar.
The photo above shows part of the large root cellar which is near the cabin. In the root cellar you will find several water tanks as well as some type of work bench. We did not see any type of drilled well on the property (although we did not search too much) so the water tanks are likely the water source for the cabin. We do not know what type of septic system (if any) is on the property. Because the property is over 5 acres in size there are few (if any) specific requirements that we know of regarding installing a septic system. We know of many people who simply use an outhouse for their “septic needs” so although there is probably some type of septic system in place you could likely improve it if you wanted to do so, without having to obtain a permit or any inspection.
The photo above shows some type of water heating system that we found located in the root cellar. It appears to be an “Instant” type of water heater that runs on a small propane tank.
The photo above shows the main “garden area” that we found on the property. Although it appears that this garden area has not been maintained for at least 1-2 years, there is a very good chance that it could be cleaned up and used again immediately.
In the aerial photo above we are looking down at the cabin and the yard area around the cabin. Because of the large amount of mature timber on the property, the cabin itself as well as the yard area have a nice amount of shade during the heat of the summer days. Toward the upper right corner of the photo above you can see part of the “garden area” that is shown in the previous photo. The black “structure” just past the cabin is the roof of the large root cellar.
In the aerial photo above we are looking at the stunning fall colors that you will find on and around this beautiful private tract.
The photo above shows the power base and meter on the property. The power line has been run underground and serves the cabin. We LOVE the off-grid lifestyle but we also LOVE having access to electricity for when it is needed!
