Rare opportunity to own a meticulously maintained, 1.5-story home on 5 private, heavily wooded acres in the highly regarded Seneca School District, conveniently located just 20 minutes from Joplin. Offering more than 3,100 square feet of living space, this property combines the privacy and tranquility of country living with the quality, updates, and amenities often difficult to find on acreage and at this price point. Property includes a heated 18' x 25' shop with concrete floors, 220-volt electrical service, and a suspended heater, along with a machine shed and an additional 8' x 10' storage shed, providing exceptional space for hobbies, equipment, recreational vehicles, and storage. Thoughtfully designed floor plan offers multi-generational living with generous room sizes throughout. The main level features a spacious living room, formal dining room, and updated kitchen. Updates include granite countertops, pull-out drawers, under-cabinet lighting, and a new refrigerator. A large mudroom includes a washer and dryer, utility sink, and half bath. The primary suite features a large en suite and walk-in closet. Three additional bedrooms and a full bath are located on the main level. The upper level functions as a private living area with one bedroom, one non-conforming bedroom, a full bath, and a large loft/family room with skylights, making it ideal for guests, a home office, or recreation space. Recent improvements include new interior paint, new carpet installed in October 2025, a 2-year-old water heater, and a dual-fuel, two-zone HVAC system utilizing either propane or a Hardy outdoor wood-burning system. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a newly expanded oversized patio overlooking the wooded acreage. Whether entertaining guests or enjoying a quiet evening outdoors, the setting offers exceptional privacy and beautiful views. Additional improvements include an in-ground storm shelter that provides peace of mind.
