Welcome to one of the few remaining large, contiguous tracts of land in south Mississippi. Located just north of Little Black Creek Campground and Park in Purvis, this 703 +/- acre property offers a rare combination of timber value, recreational appeal, and long-term
investment upside. With over 4,500 feet of road frontage across Purvis to Baxterville Road, Courtney Road, and Corinth Road, the property features four gated entrances and an internal road and
trail system that makes access easy throughout. The landscape is dominated by upland Longleaf Pine timber, with hardwood draws and bottoms weaving through the property. The topography is classic South Mississippi — gently rolling hills, ideal for both wildlife habitat and future development. Little Creek runs
north to south along the western edge of the property, feeding into nearby Little Black Creek, and a small pond and hardwood slough lie on the southern end. While there are no structural improvements, utilities are available from Pearl River Valley Electric and North Lumberton Utility Association, giving this tract flexibility for future use. It's already fenced and primed for hunting, with thriving populations of deer, turkey, and
small game. Currently enrolled in the Healthy Forests Reserve Program (HFRP) through February 2042, the property benefits from habitat-focused land stewardship while restricting
intensive development. The conservation plan allows for timber harvest and offers cost share incentives for prescribed burning and invasive species control — practices that enhance native habitat and promote long-term forest health. Additional acreage outside the conservation easement is available for building a home or hunting camp, giving buyers an opportunity to enjoy the property now while planning for the
future. Whether you're an investor looking for a 1031 Exchange candidate, a conservation minded landowner, or an outdoor enthusiast seeking a legacy property, this tract offers significant potential. Once the easement expires, its value could increase substantially —
especially with the amount of road frontage, subdivision potential, and proximity to public amenities.
