Ideal Custom Built Home On 25.59 Acres With Finished Auxiliary Building And Shop Very Close To Carthage MO. Just a half-mile from the Carthage city limits, this thoughtfully customized 2,543-square-foot brick home offers the perfect blend of peaceful country living and convenient proximity to town. Designed with care and a true sense of comfort, the home features three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and bright, open spaces filled with warmth and natural light. From the inviting living areas to the beautiful custom cabinetry and bonus canning room, every corner reflects quality craftsmanship and attention to detail. The master suite provides a serene retreat, offering a quiet space to relax and unwind. At the heart of the home is a well-appointed kitchen with soft-close, pull-out drawers in the custom cabinetry, complemented by a nearly finished canning kitchen, which is fully wired with eight individual 20-amp outlets and ready for your personal touch. Though the stove and sink have not yet been installed, the space is perfect for culinary projects or entertaining. Built on a durable post-tension foundation and insulated with both batt and spray foam (R30 rating), this home is designed to perform efficiently year-round. A propane central heat system and a cozy pellet stove in the fireplace offer comfort and charm, while a propane cook stove enhances kitchen functionality. Electrical outlets under the soffits simplify holiday decorating, and a gas line on the back patio is ready for your grill or outdoor lighting. A continuous-pressure water system in the attached two-car garage ensures a steady 60 PSI water supply, and the gated front entrance, equipped with water and electric, can be conveniently controlled from inside the home. Beyond the home, the property continues to impress with a total of 20+/- additional acres, perfect for horses or a few cow calf pairs. The land showcases a pristine mix of spring and summer endophyte-free pasture grasses, exceptionally clean and well-maintained, with 100% Class 2 and Class 3 soils—primarily Maplegrove silt loams and Newtonia-Eldorado silt loams. It is fully perimeter fenced, and features an automatic waterer sourced by the house well. A newly constructed 56' x 70' finished outbuilding, which was a climate-controlled kennel business, offers versatility for continued commercial use or repurposing as a studio, retail space, event venue, or guest quarters. A spacious 42' x 40' insulated shop with a 12' x 40' lean-to provides ample room for tools, equipment, or creative projects. All three structures are powered by a robust 400-amp electrical service, with a private well serving the entire property. Complete with new pipe fencing that adds both security and timeless rural charm, this exceptional Southwest Missouri property is more than a home—it's a foundation for living, working, and growing.
