Dry Creek Ranch
Description
102 +/- acres nestled in the Ozarks. The moment you drive through the gates and cross the bridge, you
are encompassed in the shade of mature walnut trees and mighty oaks that line the driveway and the
surrounding hill side. The only traffic is a flock of wild turkeys or whitetail deer that are seen daily
feeding along the driveway – even drink out of the bird feeder next to the sunroom. The home is a 2,800
sq ft ranch style earth contact home w/ a western feel, built with energy efficiency in mind. It has extra
insulation with 6 inch walls, a heat pump water heater, Anderson windows, and 2 high energy heat
pumps for heat and air conditioning. The exterior of the home is stucco and stone w/ attached garage.
Interior features of this 3 bedroom, 2-1/2 bath home are granite countertops with undercounter lights,
new GE Stove and Microwave, a lovely Sunroom, and 3 heating systems – Heat Pump, Strip heat with
individual thermostats, and a pellet stove. Recent remodeling included new woodwork, new solid wood
interior doors, new kitchen cabinets, and crown molding. There is an office off the dining room and a
half bath in the laundry room. A new roof was added recently with 4 skylights across the back. A pavilion
and garden area in the back provide a relaxing atmosphere. The well has a new pump and wiring. This is
the perfect property for quiet secluded country living and only minutes from town and minutes from
Fort Leonard Wood. This ranch has been used for its equestrian capabilities to keep horses over the
years w/2 open pastures, a small horse barn, and freeze-proof waterers. Also on site is a 40x62 barn
w/shop. This property is nearly halfway between Springfield and St. Louis and is close to the Piney River
for fantastic fishing. Must see to appreciate!
