This Craftsman Mountain-style home offers the perfect balance of rustic charm and modern comfort in the heart of Truman Lake country between Clinton and Warsaw near the community of Tightwad. The exterior captures the timeless log-cabin look with a fresh stain and durable metal roof that matches the insulated shop, while inside you'll discover vaulted ceilings, recessed lighting and a striking fireplace. The main-floor master suite features a large walk-in closet and a private ensuite bath, while the sweetest half bath adds convenience for guests and entertaining. The lower level offers two bedrooms, a full bath, a second living area, laundry with adjoining office space, and a secure safe room for storage or peace of mind. Garden doors open to the walk-out basement patio, where a covered swing invites you to relax beside the small fountain-fed pond. Above, a raised deck with its own staircase provides an ideal spot for BBQs, birdwatching, and evenings at the forest edge. A bricked fire pit creates another gathering place to linger under the stars. On 4+ acres with a wet-weather creek winding through the back of the property and established trails for lots of adventures. Truman Lake and Corp of Engineer Land is minutes away! For rock enthusiasts, decades of fossil and geode hunting have produced two large displays that line the front drive and wind into a one-of-a-kind labyrinth leading to the entry. A circular drive welcomes guests easily, while the detached shop with concrete floors, electricity, and heat and cooling offers year-round versatility. Flower beds have been nurtured for 30+ years, wildlife including deer and turkey appear often, and every summer and fall the hummingbird migration transforms this property into a spectacle, with dozens of these tiny jewels filling the air. Whether your heart longs for lake life, a private retreat alive with wildlife, or the magic of a one-of-a-kind rock collector's paradise, this property delivers a setting so unique it truly must be experienced in person.
