Your Ozark Family Getaway Awaits
605 Twilight Drive : Horseshoe Bend, AR 72512
Izard County, Arkansas
Land Description
Create lasting family memories in your very own Ozark Mountain retreat. This 0.28-Acre lot, just a short walk from beautiful Diamond Lake, offers the perfect canvas for your dream vacation home, weekend escape, or future retirement haven. With incredibly low annual taxes of just $9.74 and financing for only $100/Month, this is one of the most affordable opportunities to own lakeside property in Arkansas. This isn't just land - it's your opportunity to invest in your family's happiness and create a gathering place for generations to come.
Why This Property Stands Out:
Walk to Diamond Lake Recreation: Location is everything, and this property delivers. Situated within easy walking distance of Diamond Lake, you're perfectly positioned for spontaneous lake adventures without the premium waterfront price tag or flood zone concerns. Imagine mornings when the kids can walk down to the lake with fishing poles, afternoons spent at the boat launch just minutes away, and evenings strolling back from sunset watching at the water's edge. This proximity transforms lake recreation from an occasional trip into a daily lifestyle, yet you avoid the higher costs and insurance premiums that come with waterfront lots.
Exceptional Affordability - Under $4,000 Cash: This is genuinely one of the most affordable lakeside-area lots you'll find in a desirable Arkansas lake community. At just $3,780 cash (plus $249 doc fee), you can own property near Diamond Lake for less than the cost of a used car. For families watching their budget, retirees on fixed incomes, or first-time land buyers, this price point makes lake property ownership achievable rather than aspirational. And with annual property taxes of only $9.74 - less than a single pizza delivery - the ongoing costs are almost negligible.
Remarkably Low Monthly Payments: If you choose owner financing, your monthly payment is just $100 for 41 months. That's less than a tank of gas, less than a week of coffee shop visits, less than most streaming and subscription services combined. At this payment level, almost any family can afford to secure their piece of the Ozarks without straining their budget. It's an investment in your family's future that costs less per month than most unnecessary expenses you could easily eliminate.
Utilities Ready for Development: Despite the affordable price, this isn't raw, undeveloped land in the middle of nowhere. Power is available nearby for connection when you're ready to build. Municipal water is accessible in the area. These infrastructure advantages mean you can develop the property according to your timeline and budget without the massive expense of bringing utilities from miles away. Whether you plan to break ground next year or in five years, knowing the utilities are accessible gives you flexibility and keeps future costs manageable.
Build Flexibility with RV Option: Zoned for a minimum 1,000 sq. ft. home (850 sq. ft. heated living space), this lot accommodates everything from cozy vacation cabins to spacious family homes. During construction, you're welcome to stay in your RV on the property for up to 6 months, allowing you to oversee your build personally, save thousands on accommodation costs, and start enjoying the Horseshoe Bend lifestyle immediately. This extended on-site stay makes owner-builder projects much more feasible and enjoyable.
Perfect Size for Easy Maintenance: At 0.28 acres, this lot provides sufficient space for a comfortable home, outdoor living areas, and landscaping, while remaining small enough to maintain easily. You're not paying for excess land you don't need or signing up for endless yard work. It's the perfect size for a vacation property where you want to enjoy your time relaxing rather than constantly maintaining the property. More time for the lake, less time for the lawnmower.
No HOA Fees or Restrictions: Your already-low costs stay low because there are no monthly or annual HOA fees eating into your budget. You won't face assessments, special fees, or restrictive covenants telling you what color you can paint or what you can park. This is straightforward property ownership where your costs are predictable and minimal - just that $9.74 annual tax bill.
Affordable Ownership Options:
Cash Price: Own it outright for just $3,780 + $249 doc fee (total: $4,029)
Owner Financing - No Credit Check Required:
We believe lake property ownership should be accessible to everyone, which is why we offer straightforward owner financing with no bank involvement, no credit checks, and no complicated approval processes.
• Initial deposit: Just $349 to get started (includes $249 non-refundable doc fee + $100 down payment toward purchase price)
• Monthly payments: Only $100/Month for 41 months - less than most phone bills
• Total financed amount: $4,200 over 41 months
• Deed transferred upon completion: Once your final payment is made, the deed is transferred and filed with the county recorder in your name - it's that simple.
No hidden fees. No balloon payments. No prepayment penalties. Just honest, transparent terms that make lakeside land ownership achievable for anyone ready to invest in their family's future and happiness.
About Horseshoe Bend & Izard County:
Horseshoe Bend isn't just another small town - it's a hidden gem nestled in the stunning Ozark Mountains along the picturesque shores of the Strawberry River and Crown Lake. This charming community offers the perfect blend of natural beauty, outdoor recreation, and genuine small-town hospitality that makes Arkansas living so special and family-friendly.
Iconic Natural Beauty: The town takes its name from the distinctive horseshoe-shaped bend in the Strawberry River, creating a landscape that's both unique and breathtaking. Surrounded by the rolling Ozark Mountains, crystal-clear lakes, and lush forests, Horseshoe Bend offers scenery that changes beautifully with each season. Spring brings wildflowers and new growth perfect for nature photography. Summer offers lush green landscapes ideal for outdoor adventures. Fall explodes with brilliant foliage that draws visitors from across the region. Winter reveals stunning long-distance views and peaceful solitude. Every season provides its own unique charm and recreational opportunities.
Water Recreation Paradise: Living in Horseshoe Bend means incredible water access becomes part of your lifestyle. Diamond Lake and Crown Lake provide excellent fishing for bass, crappie, and catfish - whether you're an experienced angler or teaching the grandkids their first cast. The boat launches are convenient and well-maintained, making it easy to get on the water whenever the mood strikes. Kayaking and canoeing opportunities abound on calm lake waters perfect for peaceful paddles. Swimming areas offer refreshing fun during warm summer months. Whether you own a fishing boat, a pontoon for leisurely cruises, or just a kayak for morning exercise, you'll use it constantly living here.
Outdoor Adventure for Everyone: Beyond water activities, the Horseshoe Bend area is an outdoor enthusiast's dream with activities for all ages and abilities. Hiking trails wind through the Ozark forests, offering everything from easy nature walks to challenging treks with rewarding panoramic views. The local golf course provides beautiful play in a relaxed, affordable setting. Wildlife viewing is exceptional - watch for white-tailed deer, wild turkey, bald eagles, and countless bird species. The area offers excellent hunting during appropriate seasons. Camping, picnicking, photography, and simply exploring the natural beauty are all part of life here. This is a place where people unplug, reconnect with nature, and remember what really matters.
Warm Community Spirit: What truly sets Horseshoe Bend apart is its people and genuine sense of community. This is a place where neighbors wave and actually mean it, where locals remember your name after one visit, and where newcomers are welcomed with authentic warmth. The town hosts vibrant local festivals throughout the year that bring everyone together - from Fourth of July celebrations to Christmas events to seasonal community gatherings. There's real small-town magic here where you'll feel your family truly belongs, where people look out for each other, and where the pace of life allows for actual conversations and connections.
Practical Amenities Without Big-City Hassles: While Horseshoe Bend offers peaceful small-town living, you're not isolated from necessities. The area provides essential services including grocery stores for weekly shopping, gas stations for convenience, family-friendly restaurants serving home-cooked meals, medical facilities for basic healthcare needs, and other conveniences that make daily life manageable. For larger shopping, entertainment options, or specialized services, Mountain Home and Batesville are reasonable drives away, giving you the best of both worlds - quiet lakeside living with access to bigger-town amenities when needed.
Unbeatable Affordability: One of Arkansas's greatest advantages is its affordability, and Horseshoe Bend exemplifies this perfectly. Beyond this property's incredibly low $9.74 annual tax bill, the overall cost of living is far below national averages. Utilities are reasonable. Restaurant meals won't break the bank. Gas is typically cheaper than in larger metros. This is a place where retirees can stretch their fixed income, where working families can afford a vacation property, and where a comfortable lifestyle is achievable without constant financial stress. Your money simply goes further here, allowing you to enjoy life rather than just survive.
Safe, Peaceful Environment: Horseshoe Bend offers something increasingly precious in modern America - genuine peace and safety. Crime rates are low. Traffic is minimal. The pace of life is relaxed. This is a community where you can leave your doors unlocked (though you probably shouldn't), where kids can play outside safely, and where the biggest concern is whether the fish are biting. For families seeking an escape from urban stress, for retirees wanting tranquility, or for anyone craving a simpler way of life, Horseshoe Bend delivers.
Four-Season Comfort: The Ozark region offers four distinct seasons without weather extremes. Summers are warm and perfect for lake activities, but the elevation keeps temperatures more moderate than southern Arkansas - comfortable rather than oppressive. Fall is spectacular with changing leaves and perfect weather for all outdoor activities. Winters are generally mild with occasional snow that adds beauty and atmosphere without dangerous ice storms or weeks of freezing temperatures. Spring arrives early with blooming dogwoods, redbuds, and wildflowers. The moderate climate allows year-round outdoor enjoyment and comfortable living whether you're there full-time or seasonally.
Endless Possibilities for Your Family:
Whether you're building a cozy vacation cabin for summer getaways, investing in affordable Arkansas land before prices rise further, establishing a weekend retreat from city life, creating a future retirement property at today's rock-bottom prices, securing a family gathering place for reunions and holidays, or simply owning a piece of the beautiful Ozarks, this 0.28-Acre lot delivers location, value, and incredible affordability.
Picture summer weekends at your lakeside cabin, barbecuing with family while kids play in the yard. Imagine holiday gatherings where everyone comes to "the lake house" for traditions and togetherness. Envision retirement days filled with fishing, nature walks, and front-porch relaxation. Consider having a place that's truly yours, where you control the schedule and the experience, rather than dealing with hotel bookings and vacation rentals. Think about the pride of property ownership achieved for just $100 per month. Reflect on annual taxes of $9.74 - you'll spend more on a single lunch.
This property offers you the affordable canvas - your family provides the memories and meaning.
