TOWN LIVING WITH COUNTRY VIBES. Small towns in South Mississippi have a unique friendliness all their own. Bay Springs, MS is no exception. It's the kind of place where folks do the neighborly steering wheel wave as they pass you driving down the street. The world just seems to move at a little slower pace in small Southern towns like Bay Springs.
Another unique thing about small, rural towns is the rarity with which large tracts of land become available for purchase. JA68 is that rare gem. Located entirely within the city limits of Bay Springs, MS, this property offers the possibility of a nice, private estate near all the conveniences of downtown. There is plenty of road frontage on two different streets - Ainsworth Road, 3/10-mile, and Highway 528, 1/4-mile - with access points already in place on each.
Natural timber and vegetation offer an excellent buffer to the surrounding properties. Inside the tract are nice trails for hiking or four-wheeler riding. Two of the trails lead to a nice 3/4 -acre pond which could be a great place to wet a hook. There is also a small seasonal creek that flows across the site's southwestern corner. The terrain is gently rolling with several possible home/camp sites. Power is available from the road through Mississippi Power Company. Water services are provided through the City of Bay Springs.
