African Queen, Private Lake and Indoor Hot Tub on 4 acres
Discover the charm of the African Queen. Located on 4 acres with a private pond, enjoy your own sanctuary. Inside you'll find a hot tub in the Bluff Room, kitchen with a fireplace and indoor grill, a master bedroom with a gas fireplace and aquarium and views from every room. Outside, there's plenty of room to roam and play. Take a dip in the pond, kick back on the kayaks or enjoy the serenity the gardens have to offer. Make the African Queen your next getaway for a memorable experience.
Upon entering the massive custom front door made in the 1820s and sourced from Goa India, you'll find 500, 000 mosaic pieces of carefully assembled oak, walnut and ebony wood floor, including the 20,000-piece African crocodile. Every room is in this African-themed colorful home is designed to enjoy the view of the gardens and waters.
The open and spacious kitchen has a living room with a day bed, dining room and amazing view of the lake with a 15" African Warrior statue. The kitchen counter is made of 4" thick Carthage stone. Please enjoy the wood burning fireplace with an attached indoor grill for those cold winter nights in the Ozarks.
Then you can snuggle on up in the Bluff Room which has a full sized, custom, copper hot tub which is built within the Earth's natural rock for a nice nightcap. This room is also equipped with a treadmill and an electric rebounder for the fitness enthusiast.
The Library Room creatively invites the outside in with a glass bottom floor overlooking the private lake and waterfowl beneath. The room features an African hut theme with live plants from Africa and authentic African motif and spears.
Each bedroom floor is made from teak wood strips taken from a 1750s building in Indonesia.
The guest bedroom has an amazing view of the mountain and water features. The bath has a huge, hammered copper soaking tub that makes this room a visitor's relaxation dream.
The master bedroom has two private balconies and showcases a 260-gallon fish tank. It also has gas fireplace, a sitting room with a daybed and a private nook for morning coffee overlooking the canal on rainy days.
The full-sized master bath has double vanities and two sinks made from 1000-year-old petrified wood and a huge walk-in shower with built in seating for two and a one-of-a-kind toilet where you'll feel like the King (or Queen) of the Jungle.
Practically every inch of the outside garden has fruit trees, medicinal plants, herbs, berries and beautiful plants for your pleasure. Please feel free to eat from any tree or pick your own fresh bouquet. Last but not least, there are 2 ponds with goldfish, water features, turtles, an otter and occasional visits from wild geese. Enjoy a nice swim or kayaking on your own private lake on those warm summer days.
