ID#RN03 10 acres with Rainbow Trout ON the Niangua River! Tract 3

SORRY, THIS PROPERTY HAS BEEN SOLD!

Riverside At The Niangua is truly one of the most exciting and unique projects you will ever see. This small, private area contains a very limited number of tracts with TRUE frontage on the wildly popular Niangua River in the beautiful Missouri Ozarks.

Not only is the Niangua River one of the most popular and beautiful rivers in the state, but this particular section of the Niangua is well known to be a proven area for some of the most amazing fishing you can find ANYWHERE. Trout and bass fishing in this section of the river is popular year after year. This section is also home to a number of small resorts and outfitters as this particular section is EXCELLENT for canoing, kayaking, swimming and floating.

Bennett Springs State Park is just a few miles up the river from these tracts and the Park is regularly stocked with brown and rainbow trout, which are raised in the waters of the river. People come from all over the country to fish, float, kayak and canoe right here!

Properties with TRUE frontage on a named river are rare. Properties with TRUE frontage on the Niangua River, just down from Bennett Springs State Park are more than rare!

Could it get any better…….Yes! This particular portion of the Niangua River is what is referred to as a “White Ribbon Section” for trout fishing! The “White Ribbon” designation means that this section is managed specifically for catching rainbow and brown trout. There is only a 12 mile section along the entire Niangua River that is designated as a “White Ribbon Section” for trout fishing. This means more fishing and fun for you and your family!

For more information on the trout fishing click on the link below. It is a link to an article written by a man who was fishing for trout in the area adjacent to the NRO resort which is about one mile upriver from the property.

Toward the end of the above article, the author recommends staying in a cabin at “One-eyed Willie’s” campground, which is just across the river from this property (and down a few hundred feet).

By the way, the river is also well known for bass fishing as well as several other species. So if trout fishing isn’t your thing you can go after the bass, catfish or sunfish. Maybe fishing isn’t your thing at all. No worries! This section of the river is great for swimming, exploring, kayaking or just generally hanging out. How about a river side BBQ or campfire?

Tract 3 at Riverside At The Niangua is 10 acres in size.

In the aerial photo above we are looking northerly at the Niangua River with the property on the right side. This 10 acre tract features approximately 355 feet of direct frontage on the Niangua River along its northwest side, giving you plenty of space for shoring your canoes or kayaks, fishing for trout, bass and other fish or setting up a few beach chairs for the family and friends.

The photo above was taken directly on the property, looking across the river.

As the property was logged within the last couple of years, it could use a few days worth of “clean-up”. There are some tree limbs and brush scattered around which could be clean up, burned, removed or just left where they are.

We estimate that with a skidloader or a tractor the clean-up would take about two days. The easement road which leads to the lower field is drivable in a truck or an suv but we are in the process of improving the roadway. As we have a large number of projects right have we have decided to REDUCE the purchase price by $30,000 because of the clean-up needed and the work we are doing on the easement road on this property.

In the summer time, if we do the clean-up and once we finish the easement road, the price on this tract will be $99,500. It is VERY RARE for a tract on this section of the Niagua River to come on the market. Mid-sized river tracts have been and will continue to be one of the very best land investments that you can make.

If you are interested in building some great “sweat equity” on this property, consider cleaning up some of the brush/limbs, which could increase the value dramatically. The brush/limbs will also give you an excellent source of free firewood for those river-side bonfires or for a nice campfire to cook your fish!

The $30,000 price reduction brings the sales price on this 10 acre tract down to $69,500. With $500 down the monthly payments will be $750. This is about a 15 year payment schedule and an annual interest rate of 9 3/4%. With $1,500 down the interest rate drops to 7 3/4% and the payment drops to $660 a month. With $2,500 down the interest rate drops to 6 3/4% and the payment drops to $615 a month. With $5,000 down the interest rate drops to 5 3/4% and the payment drops to $555 a month. These payments are all based on about a 15 year payment schedule. Property taxes & maintenance fees (for the easement roads) willonly be about $280 a year and this is already included in the monthly payment amounts. There are no prepayment penalties, no hidden fees and no balloon payments.

PLEASE NOTE that you have a full 12 months to ADD to your down payment in order to reduce your interest rate and payment amount!

Also, if you are not in a big “rush” to clear a trail to the river and do some clean-up on the property, we would be happy to help you out with that, when we have equipment in the area. There will be no charge, but you may have to be a little patient as it will likely be next summer before we are able to do so.

The aerial map above shows how the property is situated. The measurements/boundaries are approximate although they are believed to be accurate. We are having the tracts fully surveyed and this tract is 10 acres in size. It borders Marigold Drive along its southeast side (for about 75 feet) and it borders the Niangua River along its northwest side for about 355 feet. As you move toward the river you will get to the wooded area which is where the property slopes down steeply until you get to the “Lower Field’. The lower field stays level until you get to the next tree line where the property slopes down to the water.

There are a couple of road easements (shown on the map above) on the property. On the east side, near the county road, there is an easement which takes you onto the southeast side of the property without having to put in an approach off of the county road.

Also, there is a road easement that cuts through the meadow next to the property and goes onto and across this property. This easement is necessary to access this section of the property because there is a small (but steep) valley on the south end of the property which you would otherwise have to cross!

The photo above shows the roads easements on the southeast side of the property. The easement through the field takes you onto the property just past the small valley. All of these aerials should be very close to the exact property lines and in the near future (1-2 months) we will have the survey maps in hand, which will be precise.

Finally, there is the easement road which goes down the hill (to the south) and then goes back north leading to and across the “Lower Field” on the property. This gives you good access with a truck or suv down to the “Lower Field” and ultimately to the river.

Although portions of this property were logged within the last 1-2 years there is still mature timber including white oak, red oak, hickory and cedar. Please note that the timber may not be cut or sold until the property has been paid for in full (exceptions can be made for creating trails/building sites).

In the aerial photo above we are over Marigold Drive and we are looking toward the “Lower Field” and the river. On the right you can see the “Ho-Hum Resort” which is not visible from the property while you are on the ground.

There are multiple areas on the property that would be suitable for building, camping or hunting.

Check out the interactive map below!

Please refer to our interactive map above for additional property views and information. Please note that the boundary lines and measurements are approximate. This interactive map is BRAND NEW for us and if you have a chance we would love to have your feedback on it. Is it awesome? Is it great? Is it confusing? We would like to know!

Also, please note that on the interactive map it seems to work best if you click the “View Full Screen” option. Once you are in the “Full Screen” option you can select “Topo” to see a topographic map which does a good job of showing how the property is situated.

The topo map above shows how the land “lays”. Each line indicate an elevation change of 20 feet so when the lines are close the land is steep and when the lines are far apart the land is flat (or nearly flat). The land is basically flat on the east side and it slopes down steeply about 200 feet in off of the county road (it then slopes back up). Although you could potentially put a road/trail down the steep part, it is much easier to use the easement roads (white dotted lines on the topo map) which give you access to different parts of the property. As shown on the map above, there is also a short road easement across the southeastern tip of the property. These are private road easements for property owners only, not for the public.

This property is private and secluded with an amazing amount of wildlife. On the property you can expect to find whitetail deer as well as wild turkey. This property has a proven track record for both deer and turkey hunting. In the river you can expect to find trout, bass and many other types of fish. Although this tract is very private it is only about 15 miles from Lebanon, Missouri which is the largest regional city in the area.

In the video below we take a look at the tract and its surrounding area. This is a great video to watch first as it shows the property, the river and the nearby areas:

In our second video below, we explore the property with our drone. These are all winter videos, with no leaves on the trees. We will be happy to get you updated videos this summer if you purchase the property:
