Land with Home for Sale in Taylorsville, Mississippi

Skoden Ranch - 271 SCR 37-4, Taylorsville, MS 39168 $850,000 | ~100 Acres (5 Parcels) | 2 Bed / 2.5 Bath | Built 2018 | 5,500 Sq Ft Shop | Nearly 1 Mile of Fisher Creek Frontage There's a moment, about a quarter mile down the drive, when the road narrows, the pines lean in, and the rest of the world just... falls away. That's Skoden Ranch. Named by its owner - a Montana transplant who brought a little "let's go then" grit to the Mississippi piney woods - this almost-100-acre property isn't a house with some land attached. It's a whole way of life, cut clean down the middle by a spring-fed creek that seems to have been placed there on purpose, just for this ranch. The Creek That Made Two Ranches Out of One Fisher Creek runs nearly a mile through this property, and it doesn't just pass through - it defines the place. Crystal, cold, spring-fed water carves a natural boundary that gives Skoden Ranch a split personality, and that's exactly what makes it special. On one side of the creek, you've got working ranch land - open pasture, established bermuda and bahia hayfields, and the kind of ground that was built for cattle and horses. Three fully stocked ponds anchor this side, all restocked within the last year, along with a barn (with a duck hole tucked in behind it), a round pen, a hay shed with real potential as stables, dog kennels, and a full acre training pen that would suit rabbit dogs just as easily as it would goats. Cross the creek - over a bridge built for trucks and a cattle crossing built for horses - and the whole property changes character. This is recreation land: miles of trails winding through the timber, a fourth stocked pond tucked back in the woods, multiple shooting houses and stands already in place, and a private waterfall that most owners in this county will never know exists, let alone stand beside. There's a picnic and camping spot right on the water for the evenings you want to sit still and let the place go quiet. And running through all of it - the creek itself, wide enough in places for a rope swing and a genuine swim hole, cool enough on an August afternoon in Smith County to make you forget the heat entirely. A Farmhouse With the Right Kind of Rustic Built in 2018, the house itself sets the tone before you even get to the addition. It's rustic with a genuine farmhouse flair - the kind that's earned, not manufactured - clad in cypress shiplap siding and finished with a recent white exterior repaint that brightens the whole place up and gives it that crisp, classic farmhouse look from the moment you pull up the drive. Inside, natural wood carries through the home, striking a balance that's masculine without losing its warmth - sturdy and grounded, but never cold. The kitchen and dining area anchor the home, with a half bath just off to the side for guests. Tucked above and behind the kitchen, a small central loft adds a little extra character and function to the floor plan - the kind of space that makes a rustic farmhouse feel like it was built by people who actually lived in it. Two Primary Suites Built to Watch the Water The current owner didn't just buy this ranch - he built onto it, adding an extensive addition designed around the one thing worth designing around: the view. It's not one primary suite, it's two - a rare setup that works just as well for multigenerational living, guests who want their own space, or simply having options. Walls of windows frame Fisher Creek from both rooms, so mornings start with moving water instead of a ceiling fan. Step into the primary bath and the view keeps going: a steam shower that turns a working ranch morning into something closer to a spa. And the two suites share something you don't see every day - an oversized walk-in closet with private access from each room, more dressing room than storage space. The layout is flexible too - just as easily reconfigured into one primary suite with two secondary bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath, for buyers who'd
