Description
Find your place on103.12± acres of seclusion and opportunity in the Town of Dryden, Tompkins County. Hidden at the end of a quiet seasonal road, this property is accessed by a deeded common-use right-of-way that has been maintained to a level where nearly any vehicle can make the trek. Once you step onto the land, the overbearing hum of the outside world fades with the wind through the trees in transition to wildlife movement, and the crunch of leaves underfoot. A recent logging project has set the stage for positive change in the resulting improvement for habitat and regeneration. With sunlight dancing on the forest floor, a resurgence of young growth now blends with the future stock of trees to create a sanctuary for deer, turkey, and small game. The treetop canopy of maple, oak, and beech intermingle with pockets of conifers, while rolling topography provides natural cover and bedding. Wildlife sign is abundant, with ideal spots for turkey struts, whitetail funnels, and secluded bedding zones. A well-developed perimeter trail makes navigating the land simple, with offshoots that reach deep into its corners. Whether you're scouting, hunting, hiking, or simply exploring, the system offers access across the entire footprint. The property carries the solitude of being in the "wilds," yet sits within 20+/- minutes of Ithaca, Cornell University, Ithaca College, and the airport. Everyday conveniences, grocery, healthcare, hotels, restaurants, shopping, and dining, are close at hand, making this a recreational retreat that doesn't sacrifice practicality. Nearby, outdoor destinations add to the overall appeal. Hammond Hill, Robinson Hollow, and Yellow Barn State Forests are minutes away, as are the Slaterville 600 Botanical Gardens and several Finger Lakes Land Trust holdings. With Finger Lakes culture, Cayuga Lake and Cayuga/Seneca Lake wine country a short drive beyond, this property balances recreation, seclusion, and accessibility in a way that's hard to find. To hear its own personal voice and fall to the whispers of this private and secluded parcel, contact us today and schedule a private showing.
