Check out this affordable hunting property, located on a ridge top, with heavy whitetail deer and wild turkey sign. The property lies fairly level with a gentle upward slope in the middle to the top of the ridge. There is 1740' of road frontage on a year round town maintained paved road and access into the property is provided by a gravel driveway taking you into a clearing, private from the road, where a 2172 sq foot, 3 bedroom, 2 bath Ranch house built in 1989 is situated. This house is in need of serious maintenance and is being sold "as is"; however, with work, could potentially be fixed up and used as a hunting camp or year round home. The house has electrical service as well as well and septic (condition of both of those is unknown). There is a detached, 2 car garage which is 32' x 26'. Further back on the property, there is another small clearing with a ~12' x 18' cabin, off-grid, which has been used as a hunting camp. The heavily wooded property is a mix of hardwoods and soft, with mostly oaks, maples and hemlock throughout. The woodlands have been managed for select harvests, yielding ~ 5 trees/acre every 10 years with an average of $16,000 - $18,0000 per harvest, with the remaining woodlot offering future timber income potential as well. There are logging trails providing access throughout the property. Additional hunting, hiking and outdoor recreation is very close-by at the Whitney Point Multiple Use area and 1200 acre Reservoir, which is only 3.2 miles away. The Reservoir can be access at multiple public areas, including Dorchester Park, which features a public boat launch, public beach and picnic areas, just 6 miles from the property. Whitney Point Reservoir is a very popular fishing location for white crappie and walleye and offers ice fishing opportunities as well. Amenities, shopping and restaurants are available within 3.7 miles in Marathon or 6.8 miles in Whitney Point. Binghamton and Cortland are both an easy commute of 30 minutes or less. NYC/George Washington Bridge is just over 3 hours away.
