Property Description
Wake up to peaceful water views, the sound of birdsong, and sunsets that reflect across the lake. At 400 Hill Side Rd. in De Soto, this 6-acre waterfront property in the Big Woods Lake Community offers the opportunity to create the lifestyle you've been dreaming about. Whether you're planning a full-time residence, a weekend getaway, or a future cabin retreat, this property combines open space, mature trees, and direct lake frontage in a setting that invites you to slow down and enjoy the outdoors. The seller has already cleared a beautiful homesite positioned to capture spectacular evening sunsets over the water, giving you a head start on building your vision. With minimal restrictions, you'll have the flexibility to create the property that fits your lifestyle. Bring your chickens, goats, llamas, or alpacas and enjoy the freedom of country living while still having the convenience of De Soto Schools nearby.

Picture evenings gathered around a fire pit, weekends exploring the lake, and plenty of room for gardens, outdoor entertaining, or that dream outbuilding for your recreational vehicles, boats, tools, or hobbies. Adding even more value, the property includes an older septic system, an older well that needs a new pump, and electric available at the road, providing a great starting point for future improvements. (Well and septic are being sold in their current condition.)
