Secluded on 40 beautiful acres in north central Arkansas, this gem is located just a few miles from the Ozark National Forest. Serene and quiet, it could serve as your home, retirement haven, vacation get-away, or conversion to a bed & breakfast. Three miles outside of the small town of Melbourne, it is one quarter mile up a winding drive off the main rural highway. Built in 1971, it has had only one owner. Updated in the last ten years with new appliances, carpet, heat pump, septic system, and kitchen oak cabinetry, this estate still has many years of grandeur left. Solid slab construction with fine features including limestone exterior, redwood paneling interior, slate and parquet flooring, natural landscape mixed with seasonal flora and fauna---dogwoods, deer, and birds galore! Just 30 minutes from White River fishing and spectacular Blanchard Springs Caverns.
