Property Description

Large, contiguous tracts of land are in very short supply. This 861 acres, located just northwest of Novinger, Missouri, is a culmination of almost 40 years of parcel accumulation by one man. What has been assembled here is one of the most beautiful properties you could find in northern Missouri. These rolling hills offer some of the most dramatic views in the state, and the feelings of peace and serenity it invokes in you will make it difficult to leave. This multi-use farm has so much potential for a new owner. Historically, there have been approximately 300 acres in hay production. This has generated an average of $14,000 in annual income. There are three homes and multiple farm buildings on the property as well. There is a gentleman who resides in one of the homes and has acted as a caretaker for the property for the last 10 years. He knows the property exceptionally well and is willing to help a new owner in the same capacity if desired. The other two homes have active tenants in them, and each home generates $600/month in rent. There is also a private cabin in the middle of the property that the owner kept for himself when he stayed at the property. This cabin would be dynamite used as a weekend getaway or hunting retreat. This exceptionally remote & private location overlooks two stocked ponds. There are several other ponds on the property, and a total of three have fish in them.

For the outdoorsman, this is truly a farm that dreams are made of. The outstanding diversity of habitat provides the perfect home for whitetail deer, turkey, quail, and other wildlife. There are several hundred acres of white oak-dominated timber. Access to larger tracts can be an issue, but not here. There is an extensive internal trail system throughout the property. Combined with perimeter roads on the west, north, and south, you can get to where you need to hunt regardless of wind direction. This property could easily be sculpted into a textbook hunting farm. There are dozens of areas, in close proximity to thick cover, that lend themselves to strategic food plot locations. There are other areas that could be converted from hay to production row crops, including high-yielding creek bottom ground. And speaking of creeks, there are several seasonal creeks that meander the farm, providing incredible travel corridors for deer and great roosting locations for turkeys. The rolling terrain is going to make this farm hunt and walk like a property twice its size. One glance at the aerial map and it’s easy to picture just how special this farm could be.

For the rancher, this farm has the foundation to build an outstanding grazing & livestock operation. With ample water and tremendous grass, a simple shoring up of fencing is all that’s needed to bring this into reality. Many of the farm structures are solid enough to be utilized for livestock handling.

This farm is truly one of one. You will not find anything like it, or even close to it, in northern Missouri. This is an opportunity to purchase a property that most people could only dream of. Seeing is believing, so please call David Brothers to schedule your tour at (660) 240-3243.
