This custom-built home sits on 3.61 acres with 180 feet of frontage on the North Fork of the White River -- Blue Ribbon trout water, spring-fed, with wild trout year-round -- in the sought-after McKee Village. Built in 2010 by its original owner and lovingly maintained since, the home offers 3,164 square feet under roof, 3 bedrooms, and 2.5 baths. Big windows frame the river and valley views, hardwood floors run throughout the open floor plan, and a 1,240-square-foot wraparound deck (half covered) extends the living space into the treetops. The layout leaves an easy path to add a fourth bedroom on the third floor. Two garages -- one on the main floor with direct home entry, another on the walkout basement level -- keep kayaks, boats, and other water toys close to the river. Comfort here is effortless. A closed-loop geothermal system keeps the home efficient year-round, backed by a wood stove and propane fireplace for cozy nights. Utility bills stay refreshingly low, even with irrigation included. A standing-seam metal roof, whole-house generator, and private well with a high-output pump mean the essentials are already taken care of. Outside, the grounds feel like a private retreat of their own -- professionally landscaped with a cascading water-feature waterfall, multiple patios for morning coffee or evening drinks, and in-ground sprinklers keeping over an acre of lawn lush. Hydrants placed throughout make upkeep easy. A 15x10 attic adds storage, and the owner is open to leaving furniture -- making this a true turnkey option, whether it becomes your full-time home or river getaway. Nearby public access at Patrick Bridge, Blair Bridge, and Dawt Mill puts some of the Ozarks' best floating and trout fishing at your doorstep, plus Rockbridge Trout and Game Ranch for guided, fishing. Yet West Plains, with its shops and restaurants, is just a short drive away. Homes like this -- one owner, this well-built, on a river this special -- don't come along often.
