County House Branch Homes for Sale

County House Branch is a Columbia neighborhood characterized by midcentury ranch-style and split-level homes, many of which have been updated, along tree-lined streets that often end in cul-de-sacs. Homes typically sit on quarter-acre lots and include garages. The area is known for its sloping streets, which can impact flood risk for properties on Spring Valley Road, Cowan Drive and Rollins Road. Clary-Shy Community Park, about a mile away, hosts the Columbia Farmers Market and includes the Activity & Recreation Center, which has a pool and a basketball court. Cosmo Park, less than 3 miles away, offers extensive athletic facilities, including tennis courts, a roller hockey rink, a skate park and the L.A. Nickell Golf Course. The MKT Nature and Fitness Trail, a nearly 10-mile path, is popular with bikers and joggers. Dining options include Chris McD's, La Terraza Mexican Grill and CC's City Broiler. For shopping, Gerbes Super Market is nearby; Columbia Mall, with nearly 100 stores, is just under 2 miles away. The neighborhood is well-connected via Go COMO's Red Route, which provides 30-minute bus rides to The District and major employers, including the University of Missouri, MU Health Care and Boone Health. Interstate 70 and U.S. Route 63 offer further connectivity, with Columbia Regional Airport about 15 miles south. Students mostly attend Columbia Public Schools, progressing from Russell Boulevard Elementary to West Middle School and then to highly rated Hickman High.
