Farm for sale in MO - Near Lamar MO, 25
minutes from Stockton Lake.
My husband has accepted a job out of state and he leaves next week. I am left
with the house to pack, chickens to can and 7 children to raise until we sell.
House is fixer upper, almost completely rewired with 220 breaker. New wire from pole. All plumbing either replaced with PEX or CPVC/PVC or didn't need replaced as it was less than 10 years old.. New water heater, used for 1 month so far. In this county you can use a outhouse if you desire. We have never put chemicals on the garden spaces. They have done GREAT the last 2 years and will this year if I can get out and weed. 1o acres with paved road on 2 sides, but neither a major highway. Drive is 1/10 of an acre. House sits about in the middle. We have 1 room upstairs completed, minus about 4 pieces of trim. There are 2 more bedrooms up here as well as a full bath. Downstairs is in process, but very livable. 1 bedroom, 1 bedroom or sewing/laundry room is what we were going to do, Kit, LV/DR and bathroom. Taxes are just over $600 for the year. There are no restrictions or permits needed in this county - Dade. There are/should be 4 to 5 bedrooms when completed. Good sized farm kitchen (15x18 I think.) LR/DR are one and the same. House heats with wood. But there is a gas line that runs to house. It needs the meter put back in. We just never used it. The neighbors don't bother us and it is very quiet in our hollow. 3/4 year creek, but we have never seen it dry. Large mud hole/puddle that the water flows through is about 5 feet deep in the middle! Raspberries are wild, 4 blueberries are planted and 1 errant grape vine survived winter and my neglect. Property has barb wire around 90%, but needs tightened. 2 barns, sturdy but needs some repair, chicken shed, rock garage, and another shed or sorts. Dh has some pictures, I will see If I can find them for anyone who wants to see. We have been cleaning it up since we bought it 2 years ago. It is better and a pretty place, but needs some work. County appraised it at $6?,000 (I think it was $67, but not positive.) Could be hayed, the grass is beautiful! You can email me @ with7kids @ gmail.com I will answer any questions I can. We are asking $54,900. Here is the KC craigslist ad we had posted... http://kansascity.craigslist.org/reo/1795286150.html View pics of this property here **********************************************************
ECO – STAYS
Imagine an off-the-grid and off-the-beaten path rural setting, mild marine
temperatures, roosters crowing in the morning and the occasional comment from
the horse, ducks, goats, sheep, geese, or eagles providing the day's
background music.
You rise and pick berries for summer's breakfast, or stoke up the woodstove
fire under winter's heartier oatmeal. There's literally wood to chop (if not
water to carry), fields, garden, greenhouses, barn, coop and woodlot to work
in, a large library to study in, and a couple whose knowledge, experience and
research skills make for highly stimulating conversation and mutual learning
over afternoon tea.
Ah, if only there were such a place to learn the skillset for sustainability!
There is.
Talamh Caladh (Earth Haven) is home to Caren Black, Christopher Paddon, some
two to three dozen fellow creature inhabitants, and the nonprofit Titanic
Lifeboat Academy education center.
Come for a weekend and a crash course in self-sufficiency. Or, settle in for a
month of intensive study and preparation. You may also study with us online
before, after, or in place of visiting. We can introduce you to a community of
others who are in transition.
