This 52.8 +/- acre tract sits at the corner of U.S. Highway 82 and Maben-Starkville Road in Oktibbeha County, Mississippi, about 14 miles west of Starkville and 3.5 miles from Mathiston. It is one of the highest points in the county and along Highway 82 between Alabama and the Mississippi River, with the headwaters of By-Wy Creek rising on the property. Highway frontage, elevation and a stand of predominantly hardwood timber make it a tract that works as a homesite, a small development, a highway-visible investment, or a private hunting property.

Location

A corner location on the four-lane Highway 82 between Starkville and Mathiston, minutes from Mississippi State University and the Golden Triangle economy. Starkville's shopping, dining and medical services are 14 miles east; Columbus and the Golden Triangle Regional Airport are about 40 minutes.

Why it stands out

Highway frontage this close to Starkville is rare on its own; highway frontage with elevation, hardwood timber and a creek head on it is rarer. Hold it as timber and hunting ground while the corridor grows, build on the high ground with a view, or divide it along the two road frontages.
