Edwards Real Estate

Imagine watching the morning fog lift over a stocked pond while wild turkeys move toward the open ground and whitetails work their way through the timber. Whether you're glassing across the hills, riding trails on horseback or UTV, or sitting by a campfire after a day on the lake, this property sets the stage for a lifestyle that's becoming harder to find.174 acres m/l in Benton County, just outside Edwards, MO, and positioned between Lake of the Ozarks and Truman Lake -- two of the region's best destinations for bass, crappie, and several other warm water species. This property offers a strong mix of roughly 70% hardwood timber and 30% open ground, with plenty of space for food plots, grazing, or hay production. Deer Creek runs along the east side of the farm year-round, and a separate wet-weather creek brings in seasonal waterfalls and a tucked-away spring.The land is gated at both entrances with gravel county road access and electric already in place at both the north and south gate -- one of which leads to a great build site overlooking a 1 acre stocked pond. Trails cut throughout the property for easy access by UTV or horseback, and fencing is already in place on most sides. There is also a 600 yard shooting range in place.The wildlife presence here is strong -- low hunting pressure in recent years has led to healthy populations of whitetail and turkey. Several stand sites are scattered across the farm for both archery and firearms seasons. Two structures convey: a camper with electric, water storage, and portable sewer setup, and a storage container for gear or equipment. High-speed internet available.This is rural Missouri at its best -- private, scenic, and set up for someone ready to enjoy hunting, recreation, or a homestead lifestyle. No subdivision potential here, just room to stretch out and make it your own.
