1265+/- Hwy V, Owensville, MO 65066

Description

If you're looking for a recreational property or residential build site that combines wooded rolling hills, established hunting improvements, water, access, and usable infrastructure, this 126.5+- acre Gasconade County tract deserves a close look. Located just south of Owensville along paved Highway V, the property offers convenience without sacrificing the character and privacy that make this part of the Missouri Ozarks so desirable.

Its location between Highway 50 and Interstate 44 provides straightforward access to surrounding communities and regional recreational opportunities. The land features classic Ozark rolling terrain, with oak and hickory timber and scattered cedar. Strategically positioned fields, food plots, and openings provide habitat diversity and wildlife-management opportunities. Water is another major feature, with four ponds, that were former clay pits, distributed across the acreage. Combined with a wet-weather creek bottom, the ponds add habitat diversity, fishing opportunities, and additional water sources for wildlife.

Access throughout the tract is a strong point. A maintained gravel road runs through the property, supplemented by established trails leading into the timber, ponds, food plots, and hunting areas. Whether traveling by truck, ATV, or on foot, the existing infrastructure makes the acreage practical to use and manage. The combination of mature timber, cedar cover, water, creek bottom, openings, and food plots creates a diverse environment for whitetail deer, wild turkey, and small game. The existing layout gives a new owner a solid foundation for continued wildlife management without starting from scratch.

Overlooking a clearing and one of the larger ponds is a rustic cabin, providing a potential home base for hunting weekends, outdoor recreation, or a country getaway. Its setting offers views toward the pond and surrounding acreage. Anchoring the property is a 44' x 36' all-metal building near the highway frontage. Constructed with 14' sidewalls, it includes a 12' x 12' garage door with automatic opener, concrete floor, and electrical service. It could serve as a hunting headquarters, equipment-storage building, workshop, detached garage, or base of operations for a future residential build.

From the highway frontage to the cabin, ponds, food plots, timber, trails, and shop, this property offers an increasingly difficult-to-find combination in a single Ozark tract. Whether your goal is a serious hunting property, weekend retreat, family recreational acreage, or future residential site, this tract is worth a closer look. Reach out today to schedule a showing.
