The Pigeon Roost Ranch
Description
A rare offering in the Missouri Ozarks, this remarkable 132-acre private estate near Salem combines refined living, exceptional craftsmanship, recreational amenities, and multiple distinctive residences into one extraordinary property. Designed with purpose and developed with an eye for quality, the estate offers an unmatched setting for a multi-generational private family compound, luxury retreat, corporate getaway, or premier vacation destination.
As you travel up the long, winding driveway, the centerpiece of the property comes into view, with the main residence, stocked pond, and barn-style residence beautifully positioned together within the clearing. The beautifully maintained main residence, constructed in 2002, features 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, a fourth nonconforming bedroom currently utilized as an office, and an oversized attached 2-car garage.
Complementing the main home is an exceptional 2023 custom barn-style residence positioned above a massive 60x40 detached garage with four doors, oversized to support all of your needs and more. The approximately 1,250-square-foot upstairs residence offers a 1-bedroom, 1-bath luxury retreat showcasing granite countertops, a wine refrigerator, reclaimed wood flooring, custom tile, Pella windows, and a dramatic Modern Flames Orion 72-inch fireplace. The heated, finished garage and expansive man cave/game room create an impressive entertaining venue, while insulated wood-overlay carriage-style custom garage doors and industrial openers complete the sophisticated design.
A third residence brings a completely different sense of Ozark character. The 1,700-square-foot log cabin features 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, a loft, open-concept living, and a spectacular full-height wood-burning fireplace constructed with stone harvested directly from the property. A rear deck overlooks the surrounding landscape, while the fire pit, pine trees, and pipe fencing add to the secluded retreat atmosphere. Formerly operated as a highly successful Airbnb, the cabin provides an exceptional opportunity for guest accommodations or continued luxury vacation-rental use.
Together, the residences accommodate up to 20 guests and provide 4 bathrooms, 3 washers and dryers, and 3 dishwashers. The estate's supporting improvements are equally impressive, including a stocked pond, wildlife watering area, shed with newer roof, and a 12x32 Legacy Greenhouse featuring electricity, an interior water pump, and automatic ventilation. The main residence and shed received new roofs in 2018, while a new septic system was installed in 2023. A unique piece of the property's history is preserved in the barn-style residence, where an original hay hook uncovered during excavation now hangs from a massive cedar beam.
Beyond the residences, 132 acres of Ozark landscape provide privacy, wildlife habitat, and endless opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. Deer and turkey are abundant, while the property's proximity to Montauk State Park offers access to renowned trout fishing. The Current River is also nearby, providing some of the region's finest opportunities for floating, fishing, and summer recreation.
Located approximately 2.5 hours from St. Louis, this is not simply a collection of homes on acreage. It is a thoughtfully assembled Ozark estate where luxury, craftsmanship, recreation, and hospitality come together to create a private destination of exceptional character and enduring appeal.
