921 Damascus Rd, Durant, MS 39063
535+/- Acres in Holmes bordering I-55 and Holmes County State Park. This place has been the source of many memories for 2 families for over 40 years. Located about 50 miles from the Jackson Metro area it is easy and quick to get to and offers many memory making opportunities for you and your family. The terrain is rolling hills and creek bottoms with a nice hardwood/pine timber mix. The hardwood is abundant and about 30 years old. Not quite ready to harvest but old enough to produce plenty of acorns for the deer and turkey. The pine is of various ages ranging from 30 to 10 years old. The young pine covers about 50 acres a tornado touched about 10 years ago providing a perfect bedding area and sanctuary for the deer. The families have designed and made about 20 food plots over the years in strategic locations. The road system has evolved over those years and provides very good access to all of the property. Electricity and water is on the property and ready for you to build a cabin.This property borders Holmes County State Park and the park's 50+/- acre lake. The lake has been closed for a couple of years for maintenance, the addition of fish structures and re-stocking of bass and bream. The department of Wildlife and Fisheries plans to re-open the lake in spring of 2024. There is no hunting allowed in the park which provides a great buffer for managing the wildlife. The majority of the west line is I-55 which provides another buffer.This really is a nice property so gather up the family and take a look!Offered for $1,471,250
