This property is an outdoor recreation dream come true with a really nice 240 square foot off grid cabin nestled in a very secluded location, bordered by over 9000 acres of the Pharsalia Woods State Forest. The newer cabin is a perfect getaway, with a small food prep area, living room area, indoor portable toilet and a loft that can sleep 3-4 people. There is a rainwater containment system set up to catch and store fresh water for use as well as the cabin is wired for electric, supplied from your new generator. Outside, there is a small covered porch, campfire along with room enough to pull in a camper or set up tents to camp outside for additional family and friends. The property is mostly wooded with a mix of hardwoods and pine. Two years ago, the current owner planted Chestnut trees and dwarf Apple trees which have survived in various locations on the property. This area is renowned for its wildlife, including trophy whitetail and turkey hunting. There is a ground blind on the property that stays as well as a ladder stand and Lock on stand that will remain. Hunting, cross-country skiing, mountain biking, snowmobiling, hiking and wildlife observation are some of the more popular recreational uses from this property and the adjoining Pharsalia Woods State Forest (formally New Michigan State Forest) which borders this property on 2 sides, and also contains 6 miles of trails as part of the Finger Lakes Trail system. Access is made easy by a Nine Mile Truck Trail that passes atop a forested plateau and offers visitors many great views. This cabin and land is accessible by a seasonal use road, which is also part of a snowmobile trail during the winter months. It is only 12 miles to Norwich for restaurants, shopping and any other amenities during your escape to the country. Binghamton and Oneonta are just 1 hour away, and the NYC/George Washington Bridge is 3.5 hours. With this kind of privacy and wildlife outside your door, it's hard to find a place like this at such an affordable price.
