Brookline House | Rio James Waterfront

3 Bedroom House in Brookline, Nixa

Can you say nature please?
This unique property consists of 16 park-like acres bordering a quiet section of the James River. It's great to float, fish or walk the shore line, taking in the sights. You can access the water using the private, gravel boat ramp. A disappearing spring in the front yard is home to sun fish and perch that are fun for the most impatient fisherman. They can be caught year round using a float and small baits (great for kids). If not a fisherman, you can feed them with food located in the garage. The spring reappears near the river providing a good place to relax, cool off, and fish.
Gatherings:
The fees are covered in the rules section below.
The House:
Inside the recently renovated house, find comfort in two large living areas that have pellet stoves to create a lodge-like atmosphere. It has three bedrooms and two and a half baths. The master has a queen size bed and both extra bedrooms have full/double beds. There are queen sleeper sofas located on the main and upper floor. There is a large laundry room and over-sized hot water heater. The kitchen is fully equipped. The large covered deck houses a large Traeger pellet smoker and a Broilmaster gas grill.
