Description

The Stansberry Creek Ranch is located just 10 miles south of Aurora and Monett, Missouri. The 1,835± acre contiguous ranch is one of the largest and most complete cattle and recreational properties to come to market in southern Missouri in many years. With over three miles of blacktop road frontage and numerous gated entrances, the ranch offers outstanding access while still providing exceptional privacy and seclusion. Set among some of the highest elevations in the area, the property features expansive views, rolling pastureland, and a diverse landscape with good improvements. The ranch is highly improved and designed for efficient, large-scale cattle operations. The majority of the ranch is productive pastureland, perimeter- and cross-fenced, with a solid private internal gravel road system and multiple sets of cattle-handling facilities. Large pipe corrals, lined concrete feed bunks, and nearly 20 acres of holding pens make backgrounding, finishing, sorting, and loadouts efficient. The property's southern end has fertile creek-bottom ground and provides reliable hay production. Water is abundant and well distributed across the ranch, with numerous creeks, springs, automatic cattle waterers, multiple ponds, and a beautiful 10±-acre stocked lake. The lake sits concealed in the center of the ranch against a beautiful mature timber backdrop. Ideal for fishing, recreation, and waterfowl hunting, while the surrounding timber supports strong populations of whitetail deer and wild turkey, creating excellent hunting opportunities. Additional improvements include multiple barns, several water wells, and three homes, each with separate entrances and thoughtfully spaced across the property. The Stansberry Creek Ranch is conveniently located near well-appointed towns, Table Rock Lake, and major hubs, including Joplin, Springfield, and Bentonville, Arkansas, as well as multiple livestock sale barns and commodity suppliers-allowing the operation to run efficiently with minimal travel. This ranch offers a rare combination of lifestyle, income production, recreation, and long-term investment value, making it an exceptional legacy property. Whether feeding hay, tagging newborn calves, riding horses across the ridges and through the valleys, or hunting deep in the timber, this property delivers on all aspects.
