If you've been searching for an Ozarks hunting property with privacy, diverse terrain, and great potential, this 137± acre farm in Douglas County deserves a look. Tucked away at the end of a county-maintained road just two miles off the highway, the property offers the seclusion hunters want while remaining a short drive from Ava and Sparta. The landscape is everything you would expect from the Missouri Ozarks. Rolling ridges, deep timbered draws, and a large hilltop create excellent wildlife habitat and provide multiple scenic locations for a future home or hunting cabin. An electric meter is already in place approximately 75 yards inside the property, making future improvements even more convenient. The timber consists of a healthy mix of mature oak, hickory, and cedar. Several old pasture openings offer outstanding opportunities to establish food plots or convert portions of the property back into grazing ground, creating the perfect combination of livestock and recreation. Two wildlife ponds provide dependable water sources, while the rolling topography naturally funnels deer movement throughout the property. The farm supports an excellent population of whitetail deer and wild turkey, with numerous locations for strategically placed blinds and stands. Whether you enjoy bow hunting secluded timber funnels or overlooking destination food plots, this property offers the habitat to develop an exceptional hunting farm. Beyond hunting, the trail potential and scenic terrain make the property ideal for hiking, ATV riding, camping, or simply enjoying the peaceful beauty of the Ozarks. Located within the Ava School District and close to everyday conveniences, this property offers a rare balance of privacy, recreation, and future building potential.
