Kimberling City offers quiet living with lake access and views
Settled along the northern shore of Table Rock Lake, Kimberling City is the largest of a cluster of lakeside neighborhoods known for recreation and natural beauty. “People really see those cities as one big community,” says Jon Hulsizer, an agent with Century 21 Real Estate who’s served the area since 2009. As a result, he says that Kimberling City uses the same amenities as nearby Reeds Spring and Branson West. In addition to tourists, the 67-mile lake attracts anyone looking for a peaceful home base that still has access to shopping, restaurants and views of the lake and the surrounding Salem Plateau. “You have a lot of retirees that move to the area,” says Hulsizer. “A lot of them are looking for lake homes.” Kimberling City’s CAP Index Crime Score is 2 out of 10, half the national average.

Condos and cottages offer views and boat slip access
Most homes in the area were built in the 1990s, with contemporary ranch-style homes in particular being popular. Further inland, neighborhoods stretch out on winding roads across gentle, greenery-festooned hills. Residential streets are relatively narrow, so most homes have attached garages to avoid the crowding of street parking. Prices range from around $210,000 to $400,000. Lake houses and hilltop cottages are also available, selling between $400,000 and $700,000, depending on amenities like boat slips and views. Condos are typical on the far southern shore, generally selling from $170,000 to $450,000, depending on size and location.
