NEW PRICE TAG - With just over 18 acres, 3012 Lewis Drive is acreage that is like heaven on earth — room to roam, places to gather, and real infrastructure for projects or a home business. A 500 sqft covered front patio sets a welcoming tone; a second-story 500 sqft covered deck above the front patio frames everyday views of the rolling land and a beautiful 27ft deep stocked pond. Summers are easy in the back with the in-ground fiberglass pool; fall weekends write themselves with bonfires, fishing, and quiet mornings by the water. Inside: Over 3700 sqft of living space with 5 large bedrooms with walk in closets, 3 full baths designed for comfortable daily living and easy hosting. The upstairs features hardwood flooring in the hallways and classic dental-trim moulding that wraps the second level ceilings, with a statement chandelier over the stairway. Sightlines connect the main living areas and draw you outdoors through every window. Big-ticket updates give peace of mind: roof 5 years young, HVAC 5 years young, and water heater <2 years old. The spacious kitchen with new quartz counter tops is open and spacious to a designated dining area. The oversized living room makes entertaining a breeze. Not to mention the bonus room on the main level which would be a great office space, craft room, playroom or more! The land is the showpiece: a blend of open and wooded ground with multiple live creeks, established and producing apple and pear trees, and usable flats for gardens, play, or hobby animals. You’ll find carved trails perfect for hiking, nature walks, or side-by-side rides. Along the creeks, shallow runs with gentle banks offer multiple spots to sit, wade, and unwind. Serious work (and play) spaces: an attached 2-car garage for daily convenience with built in heater; a detached shop with a bathroom, a built in heater, upgraded lighting, and 3-phase electric for welders, compressors, cabinetry, or equipment; the front part of this acreage includes a detached workshop featuring 200-amp service and a lift system—ideal for a dedicated bay, parts storage, or additional parking. Access & infrastructure matter here. The approach includes a gravel drive and a private culvert bridge that has supported heavy machinery, equipment, and large truck deliveries; the gravel base and crossing have handled heavy trucks and equipment without issue during seller’s use. That means bringing materials in—or moving large items out—feels feasible instead of frustrating. (Buyers to verify load ratings, permits, and any future commercial use needs.) Flexible future pathways: Per seller, there are no restrictions. The property was previously partially zoned commercial and is currently residential. That history may offer inspiration for live/work scenarios, contractor use, or expanded shop functions. The existing 3-phase power and truck-friendly approach give you a head start. Why this one works: - Land that functions: open/wooded mix, creeks, 27ft deep stocked pond, mature fruit trees, and usable flats. - Outdoor living: covered front patio, covered upper deck, and an in-ground pool. - Real utility: attached 2-car garage; detached shop w/ bath + 3-phase; optional 200-amp workshop w/ lift on the neighboring 1.66 acres. - Trails & water: carved trails for hiking/UTVs; shallow, accessible creek banks at multiple points. - Access: a well-maintained gravel drive that leads to an asphalt circle drive serving the house. - Everyday ease: country quiet with practical proximity to services and I-55, just 15 minutes to Festus Walmart.
