Welcome to a truly remarkable 248+/- acre retreat nestled in the heart of the Arkansas Ozarks. This scenic property showcases the best of the region--valleys, rolling hills, cedar thickets, towering cliffs, and mature timber including Pines, Cedars, Oaks, and a giant pine affectionately named ''The General.'' Big Creek, a year-round live water stream, winds for nearly a mile through the land, complete with swimming holes, switchbacks, and sandy beach heads. It flows into Lake Norfork, often bringing fish up its channel. With 55 open acres and trails throughout, this private escape is ideal for grazing, exploring, and wildlife watching--deer, turkey, squirrels, and even an eagle's nest. Located at the end of a county road near Viola, AR, the gated entrance opens to a pine-lined drive, just 30 minutes from Salem, Mountain Home, or Lake Norfork.Perched on a grassy knoll, the thoughtfully renovated home offers sweeping views and timeless charm. It features updated flooring, spacious cabinetry, ample countertops, and sliding doors for efficient flow. A vintage-style antique vanity adds character to the bathroom. The screened-in back porch invites you to relax and enjoy the fresh Ozarks air, while the covered front porch is perfect for a swing and a morning coffee.Outside, the property is loaded with extras: a storm shelter, Generac generator, greenhouse, and a fully fenced 30x90 garden already growing blueberries, blackberries, and milkweed. Fruit trees line the backyard. Across the drive is a 30x52 insulated Quonset hut with water, electric, and concrete floors, plus a shed and a 20x40 open pole barn with four bays. A trail leads to a bunkhouse tucked between two ponds--one of which is spring-fed, crystal clear, and feeds the garden via a pump house. This is a rare opportunity to own an Ozarks property that combines beauty, functionality, and peace.
