Description

Rolling woodland, quiet seclusion, and a tapestry of habitat come together on this newly surveyed 31.25± acre tract in the Town of Van Etten. Set along a year-round, maintained paved road, the property offers easy four-season access and excellent usability. The land’s character unfolds through a winding series of fresh logging roads that weave among the hardwoods and lead to a picturesque ravine, where songbirds echo and whitetails slip through dappled light.

The property was recently and selectively harvested, creating a balanced mosaic of sunlight, browse, and regrowth that’s already attracting deer, turkey, and small game. Two established entry points provide flexibility for future plans—whether building a secluded cabin, enhancing wildlife habitat, or carving out a trail system for hunting and recreation. All oil, gas, mineral, and timber rights convey, giving full control of both surface and subsurface assets.

Dominated by maple with pockets of hemlock, oak, and cherry, the woodland reflects the diversity and value that define the Southern Tier. Electric service is available at the road, and the location offers a rare blend of country quiet with proximity to key destinations—just 6 miles to Spencer, 30 minutes to Ithaca’s restaurants, Cornell University, and Cayuga Lake, and roughly 30 minutes to Watkins Glen’s racing, wineries, and state park waterfalls.

A well-rounded opportunity for recreation, hunting, or building in a serene and scenic part of the Finger Lakes region, this south parcel combines natural beauty, accessibility, and lasting value.
