16996 E 524 Road, Stockton, MO 65785 - Cedar County

Discover a truly special place with this 3 bed, 2 bath cabin on 40 quiet, wooded acres just north of Stockton. A spring-fed, stocked one-acre pond sits near the home and immediately sets the tone for the privacy and natural beauty found throughout the property. The cabin has been lovingly updated in recent years while still honoring its history, creating a modern lodge feel with new flooring, fresh paint, and a welcoming kitchen finished with warm butcher block counters and classic wood accents. The main living area is the heart of the home with a gas stove, soaring A-frame ceiling, and generous glass doors that frame the surrounding timber. The main level also includes a comfortable bedroom and full bath. Upstairs, the loft offers a second living area that looks out over the great room below, along with a separate bedroom, office, or bunk room tucked away for flexibility and privacy. The walkout basement adds valuable options for guests or possible income, complete with its own entrance, kitchen, living area, bedroom, and office or non-conforming bedroom. Outdoor living is well supported with an enclosed lower porch, a covered back porch, and an open front deck. A shed and greenhouse provide useful space for storage, tools, or gardening. The land is beautifully managed and thoughtfully planned. Mature timber surrounds a trail system and a large food plot planted in clover, turnips, cowpeas, and winter wheat. The property follows QDMA/NDA Deer Steward principles to promote habitat quality and herd health. Wildlife thrives here, including whitetail deer, wild turkey, and a variety of small game. Every part of this property reflects care, quiet enjoyment, and a strong connection to the land. Whether you are looking for a full-time residence, a peaceful weekend escape, a hunting retreat, or a short-term rental that others can enjoy, this cabin offers a setting that is genuinely hard to find. Homes with this level of privacy and character seldom becomes available.
