Bidding Ends Wednesday, January 13th at 10 AM

Tucked into the hills of Gasconade County just north of Stony Hill, this 155.6± gently rolling acre farm offers the kind of mix that’s hard to find anymore: roughly 50 acres of open pasture and hay ground laid against big stretches of mature hardwoods. The homestead dates back to 1878, and the place still carries that old Missouri farm character, with a barn, a metal shed and several other outbuildings ready to put back to work. Water is a strong point, with a nice lake, small pond, and a wet weather creek giving wildlife everything it needs. The deer have taken notice. There’s sign everywhere you walk, and the back fields are tailor-made for destination food plots, surrounded by large blocks of timber where mature bucks feel safe moving in daylight. The farm offers great homesites, productive ground for farming and room for every kind of recreation. It will be offered in two tracts, Tract 1 with 74± acres and Tract 2 with 81.6± acres, so you can bid on the piece that fits your plans or put the whole farm back together. You’re 15 minutes from Hermann and about an hour and 20 minutes from Chesterfield, close enough for regular trips but far enough out to feel like you’ve left it all behind.

For more information or to schedule a showing, contact Auction Manager Mike Sharpe at (573) 721-0944.

Tract 1: These 74± Acres are the heart of the farm. The homestead dates back to 1878, and the place still carries that old Missouri farm character, with a barn, a metal shed and several other outbuildings ready to put back to work. A nice lake sits on this tract along with approximately 25 acres of open land for hay, pasture or a new homesite overlooking the water. The rest is a mix of timber and cover that holds deer and turkey. It’s a ready setup for someone who wants a working farm with room to live, raise livestock and hunt right out the back door.

Tract 2: These 81.6± Acres is built for the hunter. Approximately 25 acres of open land sits tucked back against large blocks of mature hardwoods, setting up perfectly for destination food plots where mature bucks feel safe moving in daylight. A nice pond provides water for wildlife, and there’s deer sign everywhere you walk. Hang a stand on the edge of one of those fields and you’ll understand quickly why this ground is special. Beyond the hunting, the open ground and timber make for a great homesite or weekend getaway with plenty of privacy.
