472 Seven Oaks Ln. , Noel, MO 64854(McDonald County)

The rolling, timber-cloaked hills of McDonald County are a Missouri Ozarks treasure, and what could be better than enjoying spectacular views everyday from your home atop a picture postcard ridge. There’s so much to love about this property that it’s hard to know where to start. The 3,280 square foot home was custom built for the present owners in 1978 and has been meticulously maintained ever since. Because of the energy crisis at the time of construction, the owners included many energy efficient features, such as 2'x6' walls, extra attic insulation, Andersen windows, and long eaves, all of which are sure to keep the house comfortable and the utility bills low. The home features 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and 2 half baths, with an additional office/study that could serve as a fourth bedroom, if needed. Both the living room and the family room have their own wood-burning fireplaces, which are ducted to distribute heat throughout the house. A formal dining room provides the ideal setting for family feasts, but could just as easily become a game room or kids’ playroom. A spacious master bedroom is complemented by his and hers dressing rooms, each with its own vanity. Another great feature is the three-bay garage, with ample parking plus a workshop area perfect for tinkering on that project car or setting up a wood shop.

Moving outside, you’ll be just as impressed. Massive white oaks frame the yard, with stately spreading branches that promise plenty of cool shade and the perfect place for a tree swing or some bird feeders. A 15,000 gallon gunite in-ground pool will provide hours of summertime fun and relaxation, and the covered patio on the pool deck is perfect for grilling burgers, serving meals, and enjoying a cold drink. Two stone outbuildings behind the house deliver even more value, with one converted to a small workshop and the other, formerly an old root cellar, fitted with racks for storing 200 bottles of your favorite wines. The spacious stamped concrete patio is perfect for outdoor enjoyment, and could make an amazing outdoor kitchen space. A fenced garden spot affords protection for your heirloom tomatoes, and the quonset-style barn is perfect for keeping some livestock or storing your tools and toys, as well as a small flock of laying hens. The home itself offers plenty of privacy and seclusion, being situated at the end of a long private drive.

The majority of the acreage is heavily wooded, with ridges and valleys covered in oaks, hickories, and other hardwoods characteristic of the Ozark hills. Numerous trails offer access into the woods, and a power line crossing the property from north to south offers great opportunity for nature lovers to spot the abundant wildlife that roam the hills and valleys. Hunters will appreciate the open grassy areas as prime locations for strutting gobblers, food plots, and a blind or two. With some judicious management, these acres could surely produce some impressive whitetails.
