50 Acres Wooded Land for Sale Forrest…

Petal, MS
Forrest
This property has so many potential uses. Ideal for residential development near the frontage road and ideal recreational property toward the south end. This 50 acres can be combined with the 80 adjoining acres in Perry County, MS for a great country estate size property of 130 acres. While the south end is in a Flood Zone, the north portion is not. While in a FEMA Floodplain, this acreage is only affected by the most extreme high water from the nearby Leaf River. Good deer and small game hunting is an option and can be improved by creating food plots in the recent cutover portion to the south. A recent timber sale across both parcels left a lot of hardwood trees and about 60 acres that was not cut. This diversity is ideal for wildlife of all types. Nearby agricultural fields provide the local deer herd with an excellent seasonal food supply. Thousands of acres of public land for recreational use are available nearby in the Desoto National Forest. Call for your private showing soon.
