About This Property

Opportunities like this are becoming increasingly rare. This exceptional 54.21± acre tract combines the beauty of mature Missouri hardwoods with extensive groundwork already completed for future development, making it an outstanding investment, private estate, or family compound. Years ago, the property underwent significant improvements, including the installation of an access road and substantial clearing to showcase multiple incredible ridgetop homesites. While nature has reclaimed portions of the road, the infrastructure remains in place and provides an excellent starting point for future improvements. Even more valuable, extensive engineering work—including soil testing and development planning—has already been completed, saving a future owner considerable time, expense, and uncertainty. Preliminary concepts included both approximately 4-acre estate lots, 10-acre estate lots, and a larger 22-acre division, offering flexibility for residential development or a private family retreat. Towering mature hardwoods now blanket the property, creating a beautiful park-like setting filled with wildlife. Numerous deer trails weave throughout the rolling ridges and valleys, making this an excellent recreational property while also providing incredible privacy for future homesites. The elevated ridges offer outstanding locations for custom homes with scenic views across the surrounding countryside. Access is provided by a deeded easement from Monticello Court, allowing the property to feel secluded while remaining conveniently located near shopping, schools, and Interstate 55. Whether you're a developer looking for a project with much of the preliminary work already completed, an investor seeking a rare land holding in Jefferson County, or someone searching for the perfect location to build a private estate, this property offers possibilities that are increasingly difficult to find. Owner financing is available.

Wooded river hills and exurban timber south of the city.

Jefferson County is classic wooded river-hill country, where the land folds into timbered ridges, hollows, and Mississippi bluff terrain south of the metro. This is exurban ground more than open farm country — heavily wooded tracts, hardwood timber, and hillside parcels that reward buyers looking for privacy, cover, and recreation within an easy drive of the city. The rolling, forested character suits whitetail and turkey hunting, timber holdings, and secluded homesites tucked into the hills. Creeks and drainages thread the hollows, and the Mississippi forms the county's eastern edge. For someone who wants genuine woods and topography without going deep into the Ozarks, Jefferson offers wooded recreational land with the metro still comfortably close at hand.
