If you’re in the market for a working cattle farm in Mississippi, this 65± acre property in Wayne County deserves a closer look. Conveniently located between Laurel and Waynesboro along US Highway 84, this farm is more than just land—it’s a fully equipped operation where you can bring your herd, open the gate, and start working from day one. At the same time, it offers a beautiful place to build your dream home overlooking the farm, creating the perfect setting for both work and family life.
Designed for Rotational Grazing & Expansion
The farm is carefully laid out for rotational grazing and regenerative practices. Perimeter and cross-fencing divide the acreage into seven paddocks, making herd management efficient and sustainable. The south tract features 39± acres of established Pensacola Bahia pasture in excellent condition. This pasture has been professionally fertilized and maintained by MS Farm & Garden, following recommendations from Mississippi State University soil analysis. To the north, 26± acres of newly cleared ground are prepped and ready for its first planting of winter grass—giving buyers the ability to expand grazing capacity and increase herd size over time.
Water, Fencing, and Functionality
Water access is critical for livestock, and this farm is well-equipped. A one-acre pond and float-controlled cement troughs supplied by community water provide reliable sources. Along Sellers Cooley Road, round wooden post fencing lends the property a timeless, traditional look and opens to a picturesque house site, already prepped with fill dirt and ready for your dream home. Handling cattle is made easier with a well-functioning alleyway and corral system, allowing livestock to be worked safely and efficiently.
Barn, Utilities, and Improvements
At the center of the property is a 40’ x 140’ barn with dual 16’ x 140’ drop sheds, offering plenty of storage for hay, equipment, and supplies. Utilities are in place and reliable, including community water through Whistler Water Association, power and high-speed fiber internet through Dixie Electric, and propane available from local suppliers.
Equipment and Hay Reflected in Asking Price
The listed asking price currently reflects significant equipment and inventory—allowing buyers to step directly into a working cattle operation without delay. Included are a 2021 Mahindra tractor with loader and a Caterpillar backhoe with multiple attachments, along with other equipment and hay. A complete inventory list can be provided upon request. (Certain handling equipment is available separately by bill of sale.)
Road Frontage Adds Value
Accessibility is a standout feature here. With extensive frontage along both US Highway 84 and Sellers Cooley Road, this property offers excellent access for equipment, livestock transport, and future resale value.
