A second residence, measuring 16x32, is insulated and drywalled, providing flexible use as guest housing, extended family quarters, or income-producing rental space. Supporting outbuildings include a 20x28 workshop, chicken coop, barn, and three storage sheds--perfect for tools, equipment, or animal care. A concrete cistern has already been started behind the main home, and a gravel driveway leads you through the trees, adding to the secluded, private atmosphere.Located just minutes from Alton but well off the beaten path, this property delivers the best of both worlds--convenience and quiet. Whether you're dreaming of a sustainable homestead, a hobby farm, hunting retreat, or rural investment, this property offers the freedom and foundation to bring your vision to life in the heart of the Missouri Ozarks.
