732 Five Brothers Rd, Protem, MO 65733

Escape the stress of the city in this secluded spot, located in Missouri, just north of the Arkansas border in the community of Protem, adjoining Bull Shoals Lake on three sides and a large farm on the other. This property is a rare jewel. The fourteen-year-old, 2-bedroom, 2-bath, stick-built home is impeccable, with wood and tile floors throughout. The floor plan is probably the most efficient use of the 1140 square feet that we have ever seen. There's a cathedral ceiling in the great room and a stone, propane log fireplace. Everything you need is here for a primary home or a fabulous place to vacation, including a private well and septic system, a 55-gallon water heater, water softener, water filtration, and all appliances, including a propane cooking stove. The three-sided deck is covered on two sides. The well-insulated, heated shop is spotless, with three 12' doors and plenty of room for your vehicles, toys and projects. There's even a fish cleaning table for your mother-in-law to clean her catch. Many extras are available to the buyer of this property. Nearly a third of the acreage is cleared, with scattered mature trees, a good stand of grass, and favorable soil for gardening. A horseshoe pit is already set up and ready for tournaments. You can sit on the deck and watch the lake sparkling through the trees, walk down a gentle slope to the water's edge, or get your daily exercise exploring the property. If any of your urban area friends visit you and start telling you about their wild and obnoxious neighbors, walk them into your kitchen and open your freezer. Then say, 'We got some of those critters, too. Thankgoodness. '
