    Check this one out HHB... http://cgi.ebay.com/137-Acre-Arkansas-Ozark-Mountain-Eco-Paradise_W0QQitemZ250025656984QQihZ015QQcategoryZ1607QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

    It's a bit more affordable and ready for a gathering, except doesn't border N.F. land.

    The contact phone number is subscribed in Van Buren County, AR. according to a reverse phone number l/u search engine. That's close to Hot Springs and the interstate. I was thinking gatherings and music festivals as possibilities for this land.

    If we want to form a consortium of investors to purchase the piece that you're interested in, I may be interested in an acre for parking my camper, however, 25k/acre is more than I'd planned on spending, though I know that is the current land value in Elijay.

    yes 25 k is harsh, but when ya consider its a 3 mile drive up a forest service jeep trail to access it ,and the fact that it has abundant year round water,,it seems well worth it..

    it truly is a must see to appreciate plot of land.. ill try an pull a topo up on it..

    as far as a consortium,,id say it would have to be a minimum 1 acre per person,then those folks would have to share in the legal fees and surveying to get the deeds straight,..

    as i said we could swing probably 300 k down payment and a mortgage on another 100 to 200 k..

    The place in AR has endless potential for self sustainability. My vision would be to make it so self-sustaining that it runs itself, and I can just come and visit when I tire of the road. I see educational programs on sustainability; i.e. growing organic vegetables, raising timber for lumber, brewing bio-diesel, ect... being made available for students, elementary through college. (for fees of course) At the same time, executive business retreats with fishing and hunting for bonding among corporate titans would be available. This would be a big ticket item. Also as mentioned previously, Kansas has Waka, Tenn. has 'Roo, AR needs a big fest. The only problem would be getting the people to want to leave....it's sooo beautiful.


    BTW-HHB if you talk to the AR peeps, ask about if there is a water well. No mention of it is made and praps they are pumping water from the spring, in which case we need to know if it runs year round. In any event, I'll definatley partner with you on AR, if ya need one.

    For what ever it's worth, It IS INCREDIBLE. My brother (actual brother, not just friend) grew up in the Ozark Mountains. Him & his wife now live in Key Largo, have had 3 sons born in the last 5 years and are looking to maybe return to the mountains. He has visited and looked at the place. He might buy it, but he really wants a lot more acres. I don't know if you've seen all the pictures http://www.flickr.com/photos/30221071@N00/ , but he says they don't do it justice.

    Peace,

    Yeah, I've seen most of them. There's a bunch posted. I've seen enough of them to know that this place is no joke. The inside of the house and cabin show a craftsman's touch in all of the woodwork that's there. The auction description states that there is no drywall anywhere in the house. I'm ready to road trip out there anytime, if we have serious people with adequate resources to make a purchase happen.

    At $1k/acre, land value equals $137k Add $300k for improvements like....roads, level building sites, two complete off-grid homes, 6500 watt veggie oil diesel generator, 2200 watts solar with batteries and a phat inverter/controller...I saw one like it close up once, it's a nice one that he's got there on this property. Then there's the fruit orchard, and raised beds, barn and root cellar. Around here those improvements alone are worth more than $300k, and he's asking $438k total.

    I wonder if there's any owner financing available with sizable down $ ?

    HHB- I don't mean to hi-jack your thread. Say the word and I'll start a new thread.

    seems i wouldn't participate in any ranbO! home
    deal that involves taking on debt . the land
    ransom needs to be paid in cash , and then the council
    of investors must dissolve in fact and spirit .

    Yah HHB the Ozark mtn. place sounds awesome - warning it's already almost gone - - if not .
    He who snoozes looses
    We get attached to what we know
    Would it not be wonderful to embrace Change and come to something new and wonderful and not so crowded or greeded up.

    Hurry - I warn you.

    Were my land not so talking to me and promises I made to her not yet kept - and then the debt I made for equipment ..... - I might be there beside you - or maybe in front of you - who knows ?

    I know I have no use for any kind of continued ownership - but I sure enjoy getting things off the ground and going on to the next one - long as the breath and fire shall last


    Blessings on you Brother

    Someone go for it - the man had vision, carry it to a new height

    Blessings to all

    Namaste
