Barksdale Road, Brandon, MS 39047 - Rankin County

Tucked into a quiet, sought-after corner of Rankin County, this 3.4± acre wooded tract sits at the intersection of Barksdale Road and Gin Road and offers the kind of setting that’s getting harder to find—natural privacy with everyday convenience close at hand. Mature trees blanket the property, creating a peaceful backdrop for a future home while also providing shade, wildlife habitat, and a sense of seclusion from nearby development. The road frontage on two sides gives you flexibility for driveway placement, home orientation, and overall site design, whether you envision a tucked-away cabin feel or a more open, landscaped homesite.

Location is a standout feature. You’re only about 1.5 miles from Highway 25, making commutes and errands simple, and less than half a mile from MS-471 for quick routes into Flowood or Brandon. In just a few minutes, you can be at schools, grocery stores, medical services, restaurants, and shopping, yet when you’re on the property it feels removed from the pace of town. Outdoor recreation is equally close. The Ross Barnett Reservoir—one of central Mississippi’s premier destinations for boating, fishing, and weekend relaxation—is right down the road, and Sunset Marina is roughly 2 miles away, giving you easy access to the water, boat slips, and lakeside amenities.

Utilities are available nearby, reducing the hassle and expense of preparing a building site. The tract’s manageable size makes it ideal for someone who wants a private homesite without the maintenance demands of a large acreage, while still offering enough room for a custom home, shop, garden, or outdoor living space. The existing tree cover also gives you the option to selectively clear to your liking, preserving a natural buffer while opening up the ideal spot for your build.

Whether you’re looking for a quiet place to put down roots, a weekend retreat near the Reservoir, or a smart small-acreage investment in a growing area, this property brings together the essential ingredients: a desirable Rankin County location, easy access to major routes and amenities, and a beautiful wooded setting ready for your vision.
