Welcome to the Yazoo 225, an opportunity to own a recreational timberland tract just 25 miles northeast of Madison in Yazoo County, Mississippi. Held by the same family for more than 25 years, this property was originally established as pasture before being converted into a productive pine plantation and riparian CRP hardwoods. Whether you’re searching for a recreational retreat, long-term timber investment, or future homesite, the Yazoo 225 offers the versatility to make it your own.
The timber consists primarily of pine planted in 2001 that has recently been thinned, positioning the stand for its next and most valuable stage of growth. In addition, approximately 40 acres of riparian hardwoods were established through the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) along the property’s seasonal creek bottoms. These hardwoods currently generate approximately $59.60 per acre annually through 2031, providing supplemental income while enhancing wildlife habitat.
Access is convenient with a woods road entering the property from the south side of Wildwood Road. The tract also features approximately 2,600 feet of frontage along Wildwood Road, 1,700± feet of frontage along Vaughan Road, and approximately 1,950 feet of non-accessible frontage along Interstate 55, offering excellent visibility and multiple boundaries.
Five old cattle ponds are scattered throughout the property and could be reclaimed to create stocked fishing ponds or additional wildlife water sources. The surrounding habitat provides outstanding opportunities for deer and turkey hunting, and with the property located just one mile west of the Big Black River, the wildlife potential is exceptional. This area of Yazoo County has long been recognized for producing quality hunting.
Utilities are readily available through Casey Jones Water Association and Yazoo Valley EPA, making the property well-suited for a future home, hunting camp, or cabin. Conveniently located approximately 30 miles northeast of Jackson, 155 miles south of Memphis, and 196 miles north of New Orleans, the Yazoo 225 offers peaceful country living without sacrificing accessibility.
Whether you’re looking to build your dream home in the country, establish a recreational getaway, invest in growing timber, or enjoy all three, the Yazoo 225 deserves a closer look!
