The year was 1965 when Andres Apostol came to the United States as a student pursuing a career in medicine. His schedule aligned at that time with a young lady who had migrated to live the American Dream as a nursing student. They were united in marriage and moved to Monett in 1971. Dr Apostol joined St Vincent's Hospital and rented a house close by. 'Natty' was very active in her community serving on hospital nursing and auxiliary boards and tending to her growing family needs. They completed this contemporary, forward thinking dream home with modern aesthetics where they raised their 5 children. 5 spacious bedrooms, 3 full baths and 2 half baths. Walk-in entry with an amazing catwalk that looks down into a stunning sunken living room. This conversation pit style room is a mixture of cozy and sassy. Complete with wet bar.

The kitchen has plenty of cabinetry and looks into the family room that also has a wall of glass and the third fireplace.
