Description
This 44± acre tract in Tallahatchie County, Mississippi, offers accessible recreational acreage with rolling terrain, pine-dominated timber, and proximity to Enid Lake and I-55. Properties in this area are valued for their usability and location within a region known for deer and turkey hunting. With paved frontage on Dees Road, power available at the road, and areas that appear suitable for potential build sites, this tract offers straightforward access and flexibility for recreational use or future development while remaining a functional landholding.
The land is situated in the hill or bluff section of Tallahatchie County, which contributes to the property's overall character and usability. Terrain across the tract includes noticeable elevation change, with approximately 80 feet of variation creating a more diverse layout than typical flat ground. This variation forms natural draws and seasonal drainage features that influence wildlife movement and create natural travel corridors. The result is a property that offers multiple areas for stand placement and a layout that feels larger than its total acreage.
Timber on the property is primarily pine, reflecting its historical use as a managed pine stand. A recent storm event disrupted the canopy across portions of the property, allowing more sunlight to reach the forest floor. This change is contributing to the development of understory vegetation, browse, and bedding cover, which are important components of wildlife habitat. These conditions represent a transitional stage that can influence habitat diversity and wildlife use over time.
The same storm event also resulted in downed treetops throughout parts of the tract. While this has affected ease of travel and currently limits the use of the internal trail system for vehicles, the original trail layout remains identifiable. This provides a foundation for future clearing and continued use as a recreational access network. In its current state, portions of the property may require walking for access.
A foundational trail system is already in place, adding to the property’s usability and long-term potential. While portions of the trail network are obstructed, the established layout provides a framework for reopening access and supporting future use for riding, walking, or general property management. This existing infrastructure contributes to the overall functionality of the tract.
Water features on the property contribute meaningful value to wildlife activity and overall habitat function. Two ponds are present and appear to be dammed and holding water, providing a consistent source of standing water that supports wildlife use throughout the year. In addition to these ponds, the natural topography creates draws and seasonal drainage features that move water across the property at different times, contributing to moisture retention and vegetative growth. These combined sources of standing and flowing water help support forage development and influence wildlife movement patterns. The presence of both ponded water and natural drainage enhances the property’s ability to sustain wildlife and adds to its recreational appeal.
Access to the property is a notable feature. Frontage along Dees Road is paved, allowing for consistent entry in varying weather conditions. The property is located near Enid Lake and provides convenient access to I-55, making it reachable from several regional markets. Approximate distances include Batesville at 15 miles, Oxford at 35 miles, and Memphis at 60 miles. This positioning supports regular use without requiring extended travel.
Overall, this tract provides a combination of access, terrain variation, water features, and location within a recognized recreational area. It offers immediate use as a hunting or recreational property, with potential for future improvement depending on the buyer's objectives.
