Discover a remarkable 1,018 +/- acre ranch nestled in the foothills of the Ozark Mountains in western Ripley County, Missouri, with two parcels extending into Oregon County. Approximately 300 +/- acres are in pasture, with the remaining acreage in hardwood timber. Tall ridges create breathtaking views across the property, including beautiful sunset vistas. With a blend of open ground, wooded acreage, wildlife, and working improvements, this large tract offers a rare opportunity to enjoy both ranch life and the outdoors. The property is equipped for cattle production, with 19 automatic watering stations supplied by underground Schedule 40, 1.5 inch water lines. Woven-wire fencing runs along the highway, and approximately four miles of electric fencing help support the existing pasture setup. Maintained fences and gates, working cattle pens, a cattle head chute with scales, and concrete feed bunks are additional features. A gravel drive provides easy access from State Highway 142, along which the property has approximately two miles of frontage. The 40 by 60-foot main barn provides useful covered space for a working operation. Full-length lean-tos on both sides offer room for hay storage, cattle work, or keeping equipment protected from the weather. The building also includes quarters with a bunk room, full bathroom, and an additional room suitable for a bed or living area—convenient space for time spent working or enjoying the ranch. More than five miles of established, maintained trails provide access throughout the acreage. Use the trail system to travel between areas of the property, explore the timber, or reach recreational and hunting locations. The Ozark landscape is home to whitetail deer, eastern wild turkeys, and other abundant wildlife. Two enclosed deer stands are included, one with an established food plot. A working antenna tower provides radio communications in and around the property. The combination of pasture, timber, elevation, and improvements creates options for a buyer looking to start or expand a cattle operation while also enjoying the recreational features of the land. The pasture and existing cattle facilities offer a strong starting point for ranch use. The wooded acreage, maintained trails, deer stands, and wildlife provide opportunities for hunting and outdoor recreation. The ridge tops offer scenic locations to explore and the possibility of building a home positioned to enjoy the views. Buyers should verify building plans and any site-specific requirements. This property could serve as a working ranch, a private retreat, or a place to bring family and friends together to enjoy the outdoors. Spend time managing cattle, exploring the trails, observing wildlife, or taking in the scenery from one of the property’s elevated ridges. The acreage provides room to pursue those interests while enjoying the natural setting of the Ozarks. Large tracts with this combination of acreage, pasture, hardwood timber, established cattle infrastructure, highway frontage, maintained trails, and scenic elevation are increasingly hard to find. Bring your ranching plans and outdoor ambitions and explore the possibilities this exceptional Ozark property has to offer.
