Discover your own retreat in Missouri wine country on approximately 8.25 scenic acres along coveted Matson Hill Road in Unincorporated St. Charles County. Surrounded by mature woods, this meticulously maintained property offers privacy, room to explore, and a connection to nature—all within reach of everyday conveniences. Deer, turkey, and birds are frequent visitors, while a private wooded path leads to a seasonal creek. For outdoor enthusiasts, the acreage also offers the opportunity for seasonal hunting on your own property.
A welcoming foyer opens to formal living and dining rooms before leading to a vaulted and beamed great room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace. The spacious country kitchen features custom wood cabinetry, Corian countertops, a center island, double ovens, and a breakfast area opening to an expansive approximately 36’ x 20’ deck. Tempered glass railing preserves the woodland views—an inviting setting for morning coffee, watching wildlife, or gathering with friends.
Thoughtful updates include bathrooms, flooring, windows, and doors, along with a newer water heater. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms feature hardwood flooring. The owner’s suite includes a walk-in closet and updated bath with marble countertops, adult-height double vanities, and a tiled shower. The finished walkout lower level offers flexible space for entertaining, guests, or multigenerational living, with a sleeping area, den, kitchenette, full bath, and direct access to the fenced backyard.
An oversized side-entry garage provides RV and generator hookups, workshop space, and abundant storage. A circular driveway welcomes guests, while a separate drive leads to a pole barn with electricity and a lean-to, providing space for hobbies, equipment, or a workshop.
With Chandler Hill Winery adjoining the property and its entrance just a short trip down the road, spontaneous brunches, dinners, and date nights are easy to enjoy. Other nearby wineries, Matson Hill Park, the Katy Trail, and historic Daniel Boone country offer even more ways to spend time with friends and family.
Wake up surrounded by trees, spend an afternoon exploring your acreage, and meet friends at a nearby winery—all from a place that brings together the comfort of home and the beauty of Missouri wine country. Schedule your private showing TODAY!
