Home is where you drop anchor. Recently completed in 2024, this thoughtfully designed 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is perched above the headwaters of Bull Shoals Lake near Empire Dam, offering peaceful views where eagles and osprey often soar. Step outside and enjoy nature at its best with miles of paved walking trails: head West and wind along the waters leading to Empire Park on Lake Taneycomo; or East through the bottomlands on a canopy covered trail to Shadow Rock Park at the mouth Swan Creek and Bull Shoals Lake.Since purchasing, the Sellers have thoughtfully customized the home with modern updates, including interior paint in cool neutral tones, a water softener and purifier, instant hot water heater, garbage disposal, window shades and coverings, Whirlpool appliances, shutters and gutters, a new mailbox, fenced yard with two gates, and a large pet door--making this home move-in ready and even more charming and comfortable.The fenced yard and garden areas are ideal for those who love to grow and explore, with raised beds, herbs, and blooming perennials creating a private outdoor sanctuary. A detached garage with electric offers extra storage or workspace.Located just outside city limits for that added sense of freedom, yet only minutes to town conveniences--and with boat ramps to both Lake Taneycomo and Bull Shoals just five minutes away in either direction--this home perfectly blends comfort, convenience, and lakeside living. The heart of Branson is just a short and scenic drive less than 30 minutes away.
