Description

Welcome to the Scott Country Estate - A Timeless Ozark Retreat with Storybook Charm. Nestled among graceful trees and rolling pastures, this captivating 5-bedroom, 3-bath ranch-style stucco home (built in 1971) embodies the warmth of country living and the elegance of a bygone era. Step through the arched Loggia--a screened-in porch perfectly positioned to capture cool Ozark breezes--and discover a property brimming with beauty, history, and possibility.The estate offers two distinct entrances: a gated private drive off Barbs Lane and an enchanting, tree-canopied lane off US Hwy 160, creating a picture-perfect arrival worthy of a country estate. Beyond the gates, the property unfolds like a hidden sanctuary--featuring a sparkling 11-foot-deep concrete pool (64'x34') with expansive deck, the inviting ''Captain's Quarters'' Cabana (22'x30') complete with full bath, kitchen area, and vintage details, and a tennis and basketball court awaiting revival or reimagination.The red wooden barn (42'x42') with tack and feed rooms is ideal for horses or hobbies, complemented by a metal hay barn (24'x28') and a flourishing garden (112'x46') with a charming wood shed for tools and storage.Inside, the tri-level layout flows gracefully with generous living spaces, a cozy den with porcelain wood stove, and two master suites--one a private retreat with parlor, sunken tub, and bidet; the other overlooking the pool and fields. The spacious kitchen with dual sinks and adjacent dining areas welcomes family gatherings and holiday feasts.Each structure--from home to barn to well house--is crowned with red metal roofing, unified by brick and stone walkways that wind through shaded gardens and open spaces perfect for entertaining.Steeped in Civil War-era history and natural beauty, Scott's Family Estate stands as a place of legacy and life--a true Ozark treasure where family roots deepen and dreams take shape.

    "It is close to Branson but has a small town feel. It is the best of both worlds for this reason and I enjoy being here."
  • Athaleyah I.
    "There are no sidewalks where I'm located and it is right off of 160 so pet owners need to keep their pets indoors or on leashes to ensure they don't get hit by cars. There is a park nearby that has trails to walk a dog along but it's currently flooded. The water is going down though."
  • Trulia User
    "Ppl don't curb their dogs... there are no sidewalks in some neighborhoods to safely walk a dog. You almost have to always walk on the roads."
  • Josh E.
    "Forsyth is good! still have meth issues, but not in this neighborhood. but they're everywhere, sadly. schools and normal people are very nice. "
  • Josh E.
    "nice and close to the fairgrounds and park. the turnover kinda stinks do to the amount of rentals. But still relatively safe neighborhood. "
  • cindiray2005
    "Love the area. Clean and nicely kept. Close to everything, but off the beaten path."
  • Linda P.
    "This area is close to many fun 0pportunities or nice for a quiet lifestyle."
  • Ian S. W.
    "We live in this neighborhood and it is very clean, quiet, and safe. We often forget to lock the doors even, as most of the neighbors know and watch out for each other. There are 2 lakes at the bottom of the hill literally less than 1 mile away, so if fishing is your joy this is the place and the water is sparkling clean! Our town was also voted "best tasting water" in the state so forget bottled water here! Everyone around is super friendly, chatty, and helpful . . . even down to the local car repair shop! They often try and resolve any problems with our vehicles w/o having to resort to drastic and expensive fixes. We appreciate the honesty - go to Carl's Auto and talk to Debbie; they're the BEST. As far as the local children go, they are the MOST polite, sweet children I've ever seen, and I've traveled & seen a lot of rude monsters that people call children. If you wanted to move away from someplace a bit rough and put your kids in a clean, friendly environment I'd totally suggest this area. Retirees there are plenty of great hospitals and clinics nearby AND super cancer & elderly care specialists around. The weather is often mild and there are 2 awesome, newer airports very close by offering excellent value AND Southwest Airlines going in & out of Branson only 25 minutes ride from here. You can live here and visit your 'peeps' back home quite easily!"
