Property Description
As you enter from the road, you'll find two 2.5-acre fields that could be converted back to agriculture, planted into food plots or used as the perfect building site. A power line corridor runs behind the fields, adding even more edge habitat that deer and turkey love. From there, ATV trails take you up the side hill ridge, which rises from 1,800 feet to 2,200 feet of elevation. Several drainages wind down the hillside to a small interior woods pond, a great spot to set up a stand or just sit quietly and watch the wildlife come in.
The forest is a mix of hardwoods including maple, cherry, ash, oak and beech, with scattered stands of hemlock and white pine providing year-round cover. The last harvest was approximately 5 years ago, and it opened up the canopy and created excellent cover and new growth for wildlife. There is still merchantable timber on the property, and if managed sustainably it could be harvested every 10–15 years to generate revenue and help offset property taxes. Small areas of younger timber and brush add to the diversity of cover types. Game trails crisscross the property, and there was deer, bear, turkey and partridge sign throughout, along with many species of songbirds. The oak and beech put out a great mast crop to keep the game around all fall.
When you reach the top of the ridge, you're rewarded with an excellent view to the east, perfect for your morning coffee as the sun comes up! Please note that oil and gas rights do not convey with the property. Just minutes from the Catskills, this one won't last long, so call today to schedule your showing!
