Old Benton Rd

Description

SITUATED BETWEEN BENTON AND YAZOO CITY, JUST NORTH OF HIGHWAY 16, THIS 84.5 ACRE TRACT IS IN ONE OF MISSISSIPPI'S MOST SOUGHT-AFTER LOCATIONS: YAZOO COUNTY! The property is primed and ready to become your next honey hole, boasting a diverse habitat with oaks, sweetgum, poplar, and ash scattered throughout the ridges and bottoms. A sandy, gravel-bottom creek meanders along the northern property line and connects with other creeks and tributaries in the area, creating secluded travel corridors for trophy bucks during the rut while also providing year-round water. The ridge tops and bottoms offer nice openings that can be utilized for destination food plots or managed and reincorporated into hay fields. There is an old lake on the property that is currently being utilized as a sanctuary area for game, with a few oak trees scattered throughout and native forage providing food and security for those Yazoo County giants. With a little work, the area can be reclaimed and provide a nice 1-2 acre-sized lake. There is a good, internal trail system allowing you to access much of the property with ease, with the opportunity to create more trails and recover some old roads that have become primarily wildlife corridors. With the right vision, you could improve strategic access points and create new ones to further enhance the value of this place. A nice open area could serve as a cabin/home site, offering privacy and seclusion from the road. Whether you are looking for a weekend getaway, a homesite with acreage, or a nice recreational tract that's close to town, the Yazoo 84.5 is worth a look!
