Welcome to this exceptional hand-crafted log home, built with precision using saddle-notched Alberta Spruce logs sourced from over 600 miles north of Calgary, Canada. Constructed in 1999 with uncompromising quality—including 10-inch poured concrete basement walls and a newer metal roof—this remarkable 5,000 sq ft home offers a rare blend of rustic beauty, modern comfort, and enduring craftsmanship. Privately nestled in the rolling hills of Maries County, the property spans 13.8 acres overlooking the peaceful Little Maries River. Fenced and cross-fenced, it's ideally suited for a hobby farm, equestrian retreat, or tranquil country getaway. The expansive wraparound porch, protected by a 6-foot roof overhang, invites you to relax and enjoy panoramic views of nature in every direction, while also preserving the integrity of the oversized log construction. Inside, vaulted ceilings, grand archways, and stunning red oak flooring set the tone for the open-concept living spaces. Every detail tells a story—from the longest log stretching over 58 feet with no end-to-end joins, to the dramatic floor-to-ceiling stacked stone fireplace in the great room, complete with a wood-burning insert, electric blower, and granite hearth. The spacious dining area is perfect for entertaining, and the well-equipped kitchen features GE Slate appliances, granite countertops, and a bar supported by authentic cypress logs from Georgia. Adjacent to the kitchen, the mudroom includes a full bath, washer and dryer, trash compactor, and walk-in pantry for added convenience. The Primary suite is a true retreat—measuring 16' x 30' and furnished with cedar log bedroom furniture. It includes a Jacuzzi tub, steam shower, and instant hot water via a recirculating pump. Two additional bedrooms and a third full bath complete the main level. A custom log staircase leads to the finished walk-out basement, where you'll find two more bedrooms (One is NON-Conforming due to not having a window), a fourth bathroom, a spacious family room, and a SECOND FULL KITCHEN —perfect for guests or multi-generational living. Additional highlights include: 20kW whole-house generator, Kinetico water softener, 320-foot deep well with new pressure tank, Lighted landscaping and a fenced raised garden area, rolling acres attracting deer and turkeys, Oversized two-car garage with workspace, Antique rosewood pool table from Chicago (included), and MORE! Conveniently located just 3 miles from a gas station and convenience store, 8 miles to Vienna, and within 30 miles of both Jefferson City and the Lake of the Ozarks. Whether you're seeking a private residence, vacation home, or income-generating investment for Airbnb or VRBO, this one-of-a-kind log home offers unmatched potential. Even Tex, the longhorn bull grazing the pasture, is ready to welcome you to your new rural lifestyle.
