About This Property

Nestled in the rolling countryside of scenic Pike County, this 117 acre +/- property sits in the heart of Buffalo Township near Buffalo Knob, one of the region’s prominent landmarks.— named alongside nearby Buffalo Creek after the wild buffalo that once roamed the area. The land is a versatile mix of pasture, rolling hills, mature wooded areas, and some crop production making it ideal for a variety of uses including cattle or horse operations, hay production, hunting, farming and recreation. Potential homesites provide an opportunity to build your dream home with panoramic views of the surrounding hills and valleys. Adding to the property’s appeal is a year-round, active spring—a local treasure where community members once came to gather fresh water. Water resources are further enhanced by two established ponds, measuring just under 1/2 acre and just under 3/4 acre in size, perfect for livestock or fishing. A third pond site is in place and ready to be excavated to suit your needs. Close to Two Rivers Marina & Mississippi River for boating/fishing. Easy drive from St. Louis, Hannibal, & Quincy, IL. Looking to establish a country retreat or invest in a multi-use parcel with deep roots and scenic charm, this tract delivers.

River-bottom farms and hardwood hills above the Mississippi.

Pike County fronts the Mississippi River, pairing broad, fertile bottom ground with the timbered hills that rise behind it. The bottoms grow strong row crops, while the uplands hold oak-hickory timber, pasture, and the brushy edges that game favors. This is productive farm country with deep recreational appeal: the river corridor draws waterfowl, and the surrounding hardwoods and field edges support the whitetail and turkey hunting this region is known for. Owners here find diverse ground within a single county, from tillable acreage and cattle pasture to timbered hunting tracts. For a buyer wanting farm income alongside serious hunting opportunity, Pike County offers the balance the Northeast Riverlands are prized for.
