703 ± Acres in Lamar County, MS | Timberland, Hunting, Investment Land for Sale

If you're looking for large acreage land for sale in Mississippi, this 703 +/-acre timberland tract in Lamar County is a must see! It is extremely hard to find large contiguous tracts of land in south Mississippi that are unencumbered by powerline, pipeline, or railway. This property is situated just north of Little Black Creek Campground and Park in Purvis, MS and offers a rare opportunity to own contiguous land stocked with merchantable timber, excellent road frontage, and long-term investment value.

Land Features

• 703 ± acres of rolling hills with upland habitat stocked with merchantable Longleaf Pine timber mixed with hardwood bottoms along Little Creek.
• Unencumbered by transmission lines, pipelines, or railroads
• Extensive road frontage: ~1,125' along Purvis To Baxterville Rd., over 2,000' along Courtney Rd., and ~1,350' on Corinth Rd.

Recreation & Wildlife

This property supports a healthy deer and turkey population, along with small game and the occasional Bobwhite quail. The landscape has been thoughtfully managed to enhance native habitat through conservation practices like prescribed fire and invasive species control. The property is ideal for hunting, timber investment, and recreation year-round.

Conservation & Easement Info

The land is enrolled in the Healthy Forests Reserve Program (HFRP) through the USDA  Natural Resources Conservation Service. This 30-year easement (effective through February 2042) promotes wildlife conservation, timber harvesting, and habitat management. It limits development while offering cost-share assistance for conservation practices. Learn more about HFRP here.

***Bonus: Additional acreage is available outside the conservation easement to accommodate a home or hunting camp.

Investment Upside

With utilities available through Pearl River Valley Electric and North Lumberton Utility Association, this tract is well-positioned for future use. Upon expiration of the easement in 2042, the land could be subdivided into smaller parcels for residential or rural development. Its size and location also make it a smart choice for a 1031 Exchange or long-term hold strategy.
