Upland Mists Parcel J

This is some wild and crazy parcel. When you first get there, the parcel begins just about a hundred yards off the pavement, but while the corner where you first enter the property is sort of level(-ish), the level part is only a small area. From there, the parcel slopes down decidedly to the north, and if you walk straight back into the parcel from the access road along the west boundary, the middle of the property is a deep hollow.

If you’re a really ambitious sort, you could dam this hollow to make your own small lake or… maybe you have an even better use for this parcel. If you do, you’ll find this to be the lowest-priced parcel of this size that we’ve offered for some time. So if you’re looking for a nice, quiet place to hunt, enjoy the wonders of nature, or guide alien spaceships to a docking point, you can do it here for only $232 per month.

The parcel is a full five acres, about 660 feet by 330 feet, and it’s covered with pines and oaks. Centerville, Missouri, the County Seat of Reynolds County, is just four miles away.

Electricity has been extended to the parcel next door and we get pretty good cell phone service there. Our Five Basic Restrictions apply.

Utilities:

• Water:
  
  
  • We do not supply water or water systems to any of these properties.  Purchasers of these parcels need to arrange to drill their own private water well.  For information on drilling procedures you should contact local well drillers which are listed in the yellow pages of local phone books or we will recommend some to you.  Current prices charged by local well drillers run around $8 per foot to drill and $9-13 per foot to install a 6 inch casing. Missouri law requires a minimum of 80 feet of casing in all locations and more in some.  The estimated cost of a complete well, casing and pump system in this area is $7,500.  Permits are not required to drill water wells for single family dwellings; however you are required to hire a state-licensed well driller.

  • We do not provide any means of sewage disposal for these properties. Being in a rural area, the most common methods of sewage disposal are by individual on-site septic tanks, however composting toilets and out-houses are permitted.

  • The Missouri Department of Natural Resources has given general approval for this usage of this site for individual sewage treatment systems.

  • Septic systems must be constructed in accordance with County and State standards.  To install a septic tank you must obtain permission from:

These five restrictions apply to all of our older locations:

1. No buildings shall be constructed closer than 100 ft. from a roadway or 30 ft. from a boundary. (This may be adjusted in certain locations.)
   Explanation: buildings placed closer can cause situations that interfere with road maintenance and utility transmission.
   
   
2. No refuse, debris, unused building materials nor derelict vehicles shall be allowed to collect on the premises.
   Explanation: piles of junk are not only unsightly, but tend to spread to adjoining vacant parcels. Dead cars and junk make it harder for us to sell adjacent properties, or for you to sell yours.
   
   
3. You may keep whatever livestock or pets you wish so long as they are not allowed to create a nuisance to neighboring land owners.
   Explanation: this probably means that if you want to keep pigs in the most common fashion, you need a parcel of at least 5 acres with a back corner located away from anyone else's home. Lots of barking dogs may also cause you problems depending on the size of your parcel and how you locate your facilities.
   
   
4. No parcel shall be further subdivided.
   Explanation: you may build more than one residence on a single parcel, but you may not deed away a part of the parcel to someone else.
   
   
5. All wastewater treatment facilities shall be constructed in accordance with applicable state water quality standards.
   Explanation: if you plan to construct an in-ground septic system, it must meet state standards. We find that the typical state-approved septic system will cost upwards of $3,000 for labor and materials. Additionally, the state says that any septic system on less than three acres be built to Missouri Department of Natural Resources specifications. Parcels of 5 acres or greater are virtually unrestricted. Since they do not endanger the ground-water, composting toilets and outhouses are not restricted.

Taxes:

• $20.00 (estimate)

Building Codes and/or Permits:

• Reynolds County does not issue building permits and no building codes are in effect. The County Health Department must approve your septic system.

Terms:

• No Down Payment.  Just make the first monthly payment and we'll have a contract package on it's way to you.
• You get a Warranty Deed to the property after six months' timely payments.
• 9% simple interest: 180 months to pay.
• No penalty for pre-payment in any amount, at any time.
• 15% discount for cash.
