Not many properties can claim having been the site where one of the area’s most largest bucks was harvested. However, this property can weave such a yarn with 100% truth! Having a rich hunting history punctuated with a high quantity and quality of deer, this parcel appears to be a deer-hunting hot spot. Best yet, its virtues continue to expand when you factor in the year-round location of a 1,696 square foot raised ranch with three large bedrooms, one-and-a-half baths, and a large living area and open kitchen downstairs. Further adding to the property’s value is a large garage/work area, shed, a-frame barn, and highly desirable 10+ foot deep pond stocked with various fish. Retired as a hunting camp several years ago, the land has been unmolested, granting further opportunities for those seeking a quality hunt. Mostly wooded, the site boasts a diverse stand of timber at various stages of growth. Species include white and red oak, hard and soft maple, ash, beech, poplar, birch, white pine, hemlock, and many others. Several openings dot the timber providing a number of excellent locations for food plots amid the tall standing trees. Occupying both the north and south side of Houck Rd, the expansive acreage sports varied topography with a number of features that create excellent funnels, travel corridors, thermal cover and bedding habitat for the whitetail deer that roam its expanse. Turkey and bears are also known to make a home on site. Several road and trail systems wind their way across the land to enhance access to all reaches of the property. If the walls of the house could talk they would detail many years of commaradarie shared among generations of hunters with the racks to validate what this prime parcel has to offer. Located less than 20 minutes to Elmira, 35 minutes to Ithaca, 1 hour to Binghamton and 4 hours to New York City this choice parcel is perfectly located for both a primary residence or upstate getaway.
