About This Home

Custom-built and beautifully situated on 57 acres just north of Bethany, Missouri, this exceptional property offers the perfect blend of comfort, functionality, and self-sufficiency. Located only one mile from Harrison County Lake and the outdoor recreation it provides, this property is ideal for those seeking country living without sacrificing convenience. Designed with sustainability in mind, the acreage features multiple outbuildings for livestock or storage, 3 ponds, 5 separate fenced in pastures with waterers, fruit trees, established garden spaces, and a raised garden bed. The home offers more than 3,400 square feet of finished living space between the main level and fully finished walkout basement. A unique feature of the home is its built-in safe room and secure vault, providing both storm protection and a safe place for valuables. For added peace of mind, the basement includes a pellet stove that serves as a supplemental heat source during power outages. The main level features an open-concept design with a spacious living room, dining area, and kitchen. Custom-built cabinetry, a large walk-in pantry, and beautiful cedar finishes throughout—including the vaulted ceilings, trim work, and stairways—showcase the craftsmanship of the home. The main floor also includes a bedroom, two bathrooms, a laundry area, and convenient access to the attached two-car garage. The fully finished walkout basement offers two additional bedrooms, including one with an attached sitting area, a large family room, a dedicated office nook, and a third full bathroom. An exterior entrance provides easy access to the outdoors. Outside, you'll enjoy a large covered front porch, a spacious rear deck, and a concrete patio area at the walkout basement entrance. Additional outdoor amenities include a fire pit surrounded by a decorative rock retaining wall and a charming walking bridge crossing the property's creek.
