This absolutely charming estate has a most diversified topography that will delight the spirit and soul of those looking for that perfect home! The Retreat is what we call it. This 80 Acre estate is nestled on the foot of the historical Buffalo Mountain, an enchanting mountain with written history in the Spanish archives. Stories of gold mines that can still be seen today on the west end that Spanish Conquistadors in the sixteen century mined. Buffalo Mountain rises to 2060' north of the rustically decorated log sided home. To the south are views of the famous Potato Hills that are geological wonders of the world. The Retreat is in the Falfa Community, just off Hwy 1/63 on a nice county road 5 miles west of Talihina, OK and 6.5 miles east of Buffalo Valley, OK. It is suitable for a hunting preserve and or a livestock ranch. The current owner ran 15 head of cows and a bull very successfully and could have run more. The 80 Acres sweep up the mountain one half of a mile from the Bermuda grass valley pastures at 860' to the north property line at 1520'. The top half is covered in a beautiful natural forest with stepped benches, rock outcroppings that form natural shelters, boulder fields and mountain springs.
