Description

This 143 ± acre tract located in Monroe County, Mississippi, offers a rare combination of recreational, agricultural, and timberland opportunities just outside the city of Aberdeen. The property features a 6.2± acre stocked lake, 65.6± acres of open pasture, approximately 60 acres of 22‑year‑old pine plantation, established foodplots, multiple outbuildings, and utilities on‑site (electric and a private water well).

The lake is thoughtfully positioned and is stocked with trophy bass, providing an appealing focal point for fishing or casual waterfront enjoyment. Surrounding the lake, the land transitions into open pasture acreage (65.6± acres), which lends itself to livestock, hay production, or simply offering open views and access. Adjacent to the pasture, roughly 60± acres of 22‑year‑old pine plantation provide future timber value as well as cover for wildlife. The pine stand is mature enough to provide good habitat while still retaining long-term timber potential.

In addition, the owner has planted fall food plots and installed several tree stands and ground blinds, making the property well-suited for deer and turkey hunting. The combination of lake-edge, open pasture, and pine cover creates a diverse habitat mosaic attractive to game species. Property access and navigation are noted to be very easy, helping ensure that all portions of the tract are reachable without difficulty. Utilities are in place: a private water well is on the site and electric service is available. Multiple outbuildings provide storage, equipment space, or could be adapted to a variety of uses.

Location is a strong feature. The site is located in the heart of Aberdeen, offering a relatively close proximity to town amenities while maintaining a private, rural feel. The property is about 25 minutes to the Columbus Air Force Base, approximately 30 minutes to Tupelo, and roughly 40 minutes to Aluminum Dynamics in Columbus, MS. For someone seeking a recreational‑oriented property with good access to regional employment, services, and transport routes, this parcel offers a compelling blend.

Nearby the property are also pecan orchards, enhancing the agricultural character of the tract. The presence of orchards may add aesthetic appeal and diversification potential. The overall layout of the land - comprising pasture, timber, and a lake - provides a property that functions well for hunting, fishing, recreation, timber investment, and potentially some agricultural use. From the vantage point of a hunter, the combination of food plots, cover, water, and open space creates a strong hunting platform for deer and turkey. From a recreational/family‑use perspective, the lake, open pasture, and outbuildings create opportunities for gatherings, outdoor activities, and rural living with easier access to town than many remote tracts. From a timber/land investment view, the 22‑year‑old pine area provides future timber value and the open acreage offers flexibility.

Because the tract is located in the vicinity of the city of Aberdeen, it offers more convenience than very remote lands. Yet, it retains ample acreage (143± acres) for privacy and functionality. Roads and internal navigation have been noted as very easy, which is a plus when considering operational ease for maintenance, hunting access, equipment movement, or guest use.

This 143± acre property in Monroe County offers a multi‑use opportunity: a stocked lake for fishing, open pasture for agricultural or recreational uses, mature pine for timber or cover, food plots and blinds for quality wildlife habitat, utilities and outbuildings already in place, and excellent access to local towns and employment centers. Whether your interest is in hunting land, recreational property, timber investment, or simply a large tract of land near town with versatile uses, this offering warrants strong consideration.
