+/- 21 Acres with Cottage
COUNTRY COTTAGE/CABIN. How does a lot of peace and quiet with mainly the voices of nature to keep you company sound? If this description of country living appeals to you, then you need to check out JO21. This little beauty is located about seven miles west of Ovett and nine miles east of Moselle on Ovett-Moselle Road. Once you turn off the main road, take the well-maintained quarter-mile driveway past the gated entrance and into the serenity of nature. The tall trees that border each side of the driveway give an added sense of seclusion from the outside world. JO21 could be a great place for a couple wanting to live a bit "off the grid" or aa nice spot for a hunting camp/weekend retreat. Power and water are already onsite provided by Dixie Electric Power Association and J. P. Utility District (water). At the end of the driveway is a mini compound that includes a 640-square-foot cottage/cabin, a large metal shop, and two wooden storage buildings. The entry deck to the house has steps as well as a ramp to the front door. Enter the front door into the living/dining/kitchen area. The kitchen includes the following stainless-steel appliances: propane oven, dishwasher, and refrigerator. There is also a stainless-steel double sink. Storage cabinets are located above and below the countertops. A nice pantry/storage closet is located in the hallway directly behind the refrigerator. The living/dining area has ample space for seating, eating, visiting, and watching television. The house has two bedrooms and one bath. The primary bedroom includes washer/dryer hookups and a back door that opens to a small, covered coffee deck. The large metal shop has a rollup door and is big enough to hold vehicles, an RV, or farm equipment. It also has electricity. The smaller wooden buildings offer additional storage or shop possibilities. OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES. For the hunters, whitetail deer, turkey, quail, and most of the typical South Mississippi small game have been sighted in this location. The powerline area would make a good shooting lane. The one-acre, spring fed pond is an excellent watering source for the wildlife and provides a great spot to wet a hook and enjoy a little fishing. There are also nice places near the cottage to have a vegetable garden. As an added bonus, the De Soto National Forest is just seven miles east of this listing. With more than 518,000 acres of forestland, the De Soto National Forest has horseback riding trails, hiking trails, hunting areas, and other opportunities for outdoor recreation. LOCATION.
