First time on the market, this rare generational property offers a unique opportunity to own a retro hilltop home on 5 picturesque acres on paved frontage in the highly desirable Riverside area just outside Ozark. Enjoy peaceful country living with sweeping views overlooking the surrounding countryside and lower acreage. The elevated setting provides exceptional privacy and breathtaking scenery while remaining just minutes from Ozark amenities. Whether you're looking for a place to update, expand, build new or simply enjoy as-is, properties like this seldom become available. Don't miss your chance to own this one-of-a-kind hilltop retreat with endless possibilities. Main-level living offers 2 Bedrooms, 2 Full Baths, 2 spacious front rooms with flexible use options, a large Kitchen adjoining the Hearth Room with space for Casual Dining, a Laundry Room, and a sun-filled enclosed room originally designed for year-round plants (gravel base with no outside entrance and not heated/cooled). Upstairs features a 3rd Bedroom or Bonus Room, providing added flexibility for guests, a home office or recreation. The unfinished basement provides access to the HVAC system, water heater, and crawl space, along with additional storage and a sheltered space for storm protection. A charming cellar with ''1917'' etched into the concrete above the doorway adds a touch of history to the property. Two powered outbuildings, including one with a concrete floor and attached Lean-to, offer plenty of space for hobbies, equipment, or storage. (Note: South property line runs through the middle of the shared pond. ) Remember, I'm an older home that's been well loved through the years. I'm not perfect, and I'm being sold 'as is. ' I'll never be a new model again, but I've stood the test of time and I'm ready for someone new to appreciate my character and continue my story.
