20298 Highway VV, Licking, MO 65542

80.76+/- acres of quiet, off-the-grid potential tucked nearly 7/8 of a mile down a private driveway off Highway VV. This property was once an Amish homestead and many of those traditional, practical features are still in place, giving you a head start on creating a unique cabin retreat, hobby farm or hunting getaway.

The setting feels far removed from the noise of everyday life, yet it remains accessible enough for your weekend escapes or long-term plans. A natural spring flows through a spring house, where a gas-powered pump has been used to move fresh spring water up to a storage tank at the old cabin site.

This is a rare asset that provides a functional water source, adding real utility. Near the cabin you'll find a generous garden area that previously supported large seasonal crops. Several outbuildings still stand, offering storage, workshop potential or simple shelter for tools and equipment.

There is also a classic smokehouse, adding to the homestead character of the land. The terrain varies from gentle slopes to more rugged sections, creating natural travel corridors for wildlife and giving you options hunting blind sites or scenic walking trails.

The property was logged approximately three years ago, stimulating fresh undergrowth that supports a healthy wildlife environment. A mix of pines and hardwoods - along with pockets of regrowth - creates a diverse habitat for deer, turkey and small game.

A stocked pond sits on the edge of the woods, providing a peaceful place to unwind and cast a line. Internal trails make it easier to explore the ground and identify the best use for each area, whether your plans involve building, hunting, gardening or simply enjoying the privacy.

This is the kind of property that invites imagination and rewards anyone looking for a project with real potential. Whether you're searching for a secluded cabin site, a recreational retreat or a place to build a simple lifestyle rooted in nature, this acreage offers the features and setting to bring your vision to life.
