80 acres, more or less, timber investment/hunting tract located in central Webster County and, as the crow flies, 4 miles northeast of Eupora, 27 miles northwest of Starkville, 35 miles west of West Point & Grenada is some 35 miles to the northwest.
Farm Service records indicate that 61.90 acres were planted to pines 16 years ago in December of 1998 under the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) over high site index (90 according to USDA) soils (Bude & Oaklimeter silt loams). It does not appear that 100% of the trees survived and a more accurate figure for pine acreage is about 53 acres. There are two (2) green fields that total about 3.50 acres and the balance of some 23.50 acres is in mixed hardwoods. Up front monies can readily be generated given that the pines are ready to be thinned and there is also some hardwood timber that is merchantable. Further adding to the value of this prop...

Up front monies can readily be generated given that the pines are ready to be thinned and there is also some hardwood timber that is merchantable. Further adding to the value of this property, 15.90 acres are subject to a CRP (riparian buffer) contract that will generate $757.00 per year and a total of $12,036.30 before it expires on 09/30/2028.
This property provides a diverse habitat and great draw for the deer, turkey and small game that abound in the area and the sportsman will find ample opportunities here to test his skills. School owned 16 Section lands join to the west as an additional buffer for privacy.
Currently, a network of interior roads is not in place and a small canal dissects the property making access to the north portion somewhat cumbersome. However, the width of the canal is such that one could easily construct a bridge to remedy this situation.
Access is via a 30 foot wide, recorded, perpetual easement along an existing graveled drive and woods road leading north from Snow Bottom Road (CR 128) . The easement provides for the construction, maintenance & utilization of a roadway and utilities. There is a nice bluff on south line that overlooks most of the land & would be a great place for a cabin or home should that fit into your plans.
