Land with Home for Sale in Sparta, Missouri
1257 Elkhead Rd, Sparta, MO 65753
Sitting up on a rise just outside Sparta, with a covered porch running the full front of the house and a swing already hanging on it. You'll use it more than you think.Step inside and the whole main living area opens up under a vaulted ceiling. Wide-plank hand-scraped hardwood runs through the living room, dining, and kitchen, so nothing feels chopped up. The kitchen is the showpiece: custom stained cabinetry, granite counters, farmhouse apron sink, stainless appliances, tile backsplash, sliding barn door, and a live-edge bar top with the bark left on and sealed in epoxy. It seats a crowd and it's the first thing every guest puts a hand on.The primary suite is on the main level with its own private bath, and there's shiplap and trim work done right throughout. Off the dining area, a slider opens to the back deck.Outside is where it really gets good. The red steel shop is finished with a concrete floor, insulation, lights, two overhead doors, and a walk-in. Park the truck, the mower, and the four-wheelers and still have room for a project. Raised garden beds are already built, there's a basketball goal on the side, and the yard is flat, open, and mowed.Sparta R-III School District, minutes to Hwy 14, roughly 20 to Ozark and 30 to Springfield. Country setting with the pavement close.
