Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This one-of-a-kind 15.5-acre tract is located on the federally designated "Wild & Scenic Mulberry River," featuring over 600 feet of river frontage on the south side. The property is bordered on three sides by the Ozark National Forest. A historic Civil War era cabin, rebuilt in 1897, has been remodeled to a large degree but still requires work. The two-story structure is constructed of wood and natural stone and includes propane heat and window air conditioning. Water is supplied via a spring-fed artesian well. A second two-story cabin, built in the 1990s, serves as a guest and party place. It has been partially updated but also needs work. Additional features include a large free-standing greenhouse, a detached historic rock canning cellar used for preserving wild game in the 1800s, and a large barn that needs some maintenance. Normal access involves crossing a concrete low-water bridge, which is unusable during high water events. An alternative route exists via a USFS road over Batson Mountain, through Butts Hollow. The property is located in Oark, AR.
