Recreational & Residential Land for Sale in Ridgeland, Mississippi

This 17.42 +/- acre tract in Madison County, Mississippi offers something that is hard to find this close to Ridgeland and Madison: a private, wooded property with a ridgetop building site, a year-round creek, and good deer and turkey hunting, all with paved road access and utilities nearby. The property sits at the dead end of Woodland Springs Road off Greens Crossing Road, a short drive from the Bridgewater area. It feels secluded and tucked away, yet it is only minutes from Madison and Ridgeland. Access is easy and private. Woodland Springs Road is paved all the way to the property, where a coded gate opens to a gravel drive. The drive climbs through the timber to the top of the ridge, so the work of getting in and up the hill is already done. Power and water are available nearby, which makes planning a build far simpler than on most wooded tracts. The ridge is the centerpiece of the property. It sits up above the surrounding woods with views in every direction, and it would make an excellent site for a primary home, a cabin, or a weekend getaway. A house on this ridge would be tucked into the trees with plenty of separation from the road, while still being minutes from shopping, dining, and the conveniences of the Ridgeland and Madison area. The timber is a good mix of mature hardwoods and pines. The hardwoods provide mast for wildlife and shade along the slopes, while the pines add year-round cover and character to the woods. The combination gives the property a natural, established feel that takes decades to grow. A year-round creek runs through the tract, adding both beauty and a dependable water source for wildlife. Between the creek, the mixed timber, and the changes in elevation, the property has excellent habitat. Deer and turkey use the property, giving a buyer the chance to hunt their own land close to home. The tract also offers the possibility of a small development, with room for a buyer to divide the property into a few large wooded lots. Land in this part of Madison County with this kind of access is limited, which makes that option worth considering. Whether you are looking for a homesite with some room around it, a place to hunt close to home, a small development opportunity, or a well-located tract to hold, this property checks a lot of boxes. Gated access, a finished drive to the top of the ridge, a year-round creek, mature timber, and nearby utilities make this one worth a look.
