About This Property

Just 15 minutes southeast of Greenville, this expansive 2,155 +/- acre property offers a rare mix of privacy, functionality, and natural beauty in southeast Missouri. A 25-acre private lake sits at the heart of the property surrounded by open pasture areas, hardwood timber, and scenic views. The farm is well-equipped for livestock, with a fully fenced perimeter consisting of 16.5 miles of 5 strand barbed-wire, approximately 400 acres of cleared ground planted in Kentucky 31, orchard grass, and clover. Three large fenced pastures and nine ponds support rotational grazing, while a smaller woven-wire pasture is ideal for goats, sheep, or weaning calves. Additional infrastructure includes a fenced hay area, two pipe corrals, and a deep 65 GPM well that provides adequate water to the property. A large shop with rustic living quarters overlooks the property from a ridgetop, and a new 60x80 clear span steel barn offers versatile storage or operational space. A cabin and campground sit along the lake’s edge, with several ideal home sites nearby. The land is rich with wildlife, including deer and turkey, and features seasonal creeks, many natural springs, and a well-maintained internal road system that spans the entire tract. Whether for potential ranching, a recreational haven, or building your dream retreat, this property delivers a rare opportunity to own a large, scenic, and highly functional piece of Missouri countryside.

Big water and big woods, where the lake and rivers meet the forest.

Wayne County pairs deep Ozark timber with some of the region's best big water. Wappapello Lake anchors the county, and the St. Francis and Black rivers wind through forested hills wrapped by the Mark Twain National Forest. The terrain rolls from rugged, timbered ridges in the west toward gentler farm country and river bottoms in the east. It's a strong mix for buyers: hardwood ridges that hunt well for deer and turkey, pasture and hay ground for cattle, and lake and river frontage prized for fishing and recreation. Waterfowl move through the bottoms in season. For a recreational tract near the lake, a working cattle farm, or a timbered hunting property, Wayne County covers a lot of ground.
