Estate for sale in Missouri has captivating secret — and it’s underground. Take a look

A stunning property, complete with two houses and hundreds of acres of land, has hit the real estate market in Elsberry, Missouri, for $7.9 million. The estate also comes with something extra below the surface — three underground limestone mines.

The largest of the three being a whopping 417,000 square feet.

The land was purchased by Fielding Wigginton, the founder of Elsberry, and over the course of five decades starting in 1857, the acreage would grow from 40 to 350.

According to Fox 2 Now and a news release on the property, it was Wigginton who built a “rudimentary home out of logs,” which would later house Wigginton’s daughter Ida and her husband Clarence Cannon, a Democrat congressman who represented Missouri from 1923 to 1964 , when they weren’t spending their time in Washington D.C.

Ida would go on to inherit the property and the mines, which the Crystal Carbonate Lime Company had mined Kimmswick limestone since 1904, Fox 2 reported.

Clarence described their life on the farm to the Wigginton family in letters, calling the home a “very crude structure, built of logs as was every other farmhouse of the day, consisting of two rooms and half a story above and was in poor repair,” according to the news release.

The Cannons remodeled and added on to the home over the years, the news release said

The three mines, which feature stone floors with up to 40-foot high ceilings and stone pillars that stretch 50-60 feet apart, were excavated in the 1930s, the listing on Zillow.com describes.

The listing is held by Tracy Ellis of The Rick & Tracy Ellis Team.

Elsberry is about 58 miles northwest of St. Louis.
