Bollinger County, Missouri – Land For Sale | Pleased to offer you the chance to purchase this 278.67 acres of untapped potential nestled along the beautiful Castor River (approximately 1.6 miles of river frontage). This rare blend of productivity and wilderness offers 191 acres of prime tillable farmland (all but a few acres are also irrigated), with the remainder wrapped in mostly hardwood timber. The wooded portion is home to an abundance of wildlife and natural beauty.
This is not just any farm—it’s an income-producing recreational paradise. Whether you’re fishing for smallmouth on the banks of the crystal clear Castor River or setting your sights on mature whitetail and wild turkey, this property is teeming with opportunities for an outdoor adventure. Its prime location and easy river access make it a sportsman’s dream come true.
Investors take note: At a cash rent rate of $250/acre, you’re looking at a steady annual return, not including the potential for additional income through hunting leases. Pair that income with extremely low property taxes of just $301.66 annually, and you are looking at a great investment opportunity.
The well-draining riverfront cropland sits outside of the flood-risk zones for crop insurance, making this a low-risk, high-reward purchase. Surrounded by quality hunting and located in a major migratory flyway for waterfowl (Middle Zone), this property is also poised for easy conversion into a duck and goose haven with minimal development.
If 278 acres isn’t enough, the adjacent 70 tract could be purchased for more recreational opportunities.
Old River Road isn’t just a property—it’s a legacy in the making
