12157 NW MO 45 Highway If you're looking for close in, secluded, acreage, you need not look any further. This Swiss Chalet-inspired home blends storybook charm with modern updates. Set on nearly 7 acres, it offers the perfect mix of wooded privacy and wide-open yard space for entertaining, sports, or quiet evenings under the stars. Nearly 3 of the almost 7 acres is cleared, but the entire perimeter of the property is still covered with woods. Secluded is definitely a word to describe the feel of this beautiful home, and property! Step inside to find soaring wood plank vaulted ceilings that add warmth and character. The main-level primary suite includes a walk-in closet, attached laundry, and sliding doors opening to a patio beside a peaceful water feature. Upstairs, a loft serves as a flexible third bedroom or office, while the finished basement—with brand new carpet—expands your living options. This home has had just two owners since 1978 and has been thoughtfully updated: permanent steel siding (2019), refinished hardwood floors, new lighting, fresh paint, and more. Outdoors, you’ll enjoy a wraparound deck, a screened-in gazebo, and beautifully landscaped rock gardens. Two detached 2-car garages and a matching shed complete the picture. With architectural character, modern updates, and unmatched natural beauty—all within minutes of shopping and downtown Parkville—this is more than a home, it’s a retreat.
