001 US 82 East, Starkville, MS 39759

Welcome to the Starkville 400 – that’s right, 400 contiguous acres just minutes from downtown Starkville and Mississippi State University. Opportunities of this size and location don’t come around often in Oktibbeha County. The timber was harvested last year, leaving behind a flat landscape that serves as a true blank canvas for investors or developers. Whether you’re imagining a large-scale residential community, a mixed-use project, commercial expansion, or simply replanting timber and holding as a long-term investment, this property offers endless potential. Accessibility is another standout feature. With nearly a mile and a half of road frontage between Reed Road on the south and US 82 E on the north, entry and exit are convenient from multiple directions. Adding to its appeal, a portion of the eastern boundary borders the Starkville city limits, placing the property right at the edge of the city’s growth and positioning it for future expansion and value appreciation. Beyond the boundaries of the land itself, Starkville is one of Mississippi’s fastest-growing cities and a hub of activity driven by Mississippi State University, the state’s largest university and home to more than 23,000 students. The city blends small-town warmth with big-city amenities, offering a strong local economy supported by research, technology, and innovation tied to MSU. Starkville is well known for its SEC sports atmosphere, with Saturdays in the fall drawing tens of thousands of fans to Davis Wade Stadium, and spring weekends filled with baseball excitement at Dudy Noble Field, widely considered one of the best college baseball venues in the nation. The town also boasts a lively arts and cultural scene, with music festivals, local art galleries, and the famous Cotton District blending historic architecture with restaurants, coffee shops, and nightlife. Downtown Starkville features boutique shopping, farm-to-table dining, and community events that draw both residents and visitors year-round. With its balance of economic growth, academic influence, and vibrant community life, Starkville continues to attract new residents, businesses, and investors alike. Owning 400 acres at the edge of this thriving city gives you the rare opportunity to be part of Starkville’s future while enjoying the immediate benefits of scale, location, and accessibility that few properties can match.
