Description
PRICE REDUCED! This is a nice hunting property for the serious whitetail hunter in the Western Catskills Region, renowned for its history and wildlife. There was lots of deer sign when recently walked, on this rugged, heavily wooded tract with trails providing good access throughout. There is a mix of hardwoods, including a lot of oak, providing mast for deer and wild turkey, as well as maples, in addition to a sizable hemlock stand and white pine. Some timber looks ready now, and future income potential is possible with future growth. The property is currently in a 480A Timber Management program, which improves the health of the woodlot while enhancing the deer and wildlife habitat and provides the owner with a tax reduction. The driveway into the property slopes upwards until you reach the top, where it levels off. It could be a great spot for a hunting camp or vacation getaway cabin. The back of the property then slopes downwards towards the valley. There is electricity across the road from this parcel; however, it is unknown whether it can be brought up the driveway - that would need to be determined with the service provider. Amenities are close by in the historic and quaint village of Franklin, only six miles away, and Otego, Sidney in 9 miles or Oneonta in 15 miles. For the fishing enthusiast, public access to the Susquehanna River, renowned for its fishing, including smallmouth bass, walleye, northern pike, and muskies, among several other species, is less than 5 miles away. East Sidney Lake Park is only approx. 3 miles away and offers more fishing and a public picnic area and beach. All this outstanding outdoor recreation in the beautiful Leatherstocking area of CNY and only approx. 2 hours and 40 minutes from NYC/George Washington Bridge.
