View on Google MapsDescription
This peaceful, private home on a small farm acreage has many possibilities. There are 3.5+/- acres of tillable farmland with additional pasture, a small woodlot and 424’ of stream frontage on Hawley Brook running through the property. The diverse habitat offers excellent potential for whitetail deer, turkeys, grouse, and other native wildlife. Sitting on a year-round maintained town road, the house is a two-story farmhouse with 1622 square feet built in 1888 with more recent remodeling. The house is being sold “as is” but, with some effort, could be restored to its former beauty. With wood siding and a lovely blue stone patio outside, the house features 4 bedrooms and 2 baths, with wood flooring throughout, gorgeous exposed beams, a skylight, and an inviting sunroom featuring stained glass windows. There is a one-car attached garage, an oil hot water boiler for heat with a backup propane generator. The 2 story barn behind the house could be used for a number of different options: workshop, horse barn, livestock, or small business, as it has 100 amp electrical service, heating provided by a furnace (condition unknown), concrete floor and stalls, as well as considerable storage space available. The land is mainly level with a diverse habitat that supports a variety of other wildlife, i.e. beaver, fishers, squirrels, hawks, bald eagles, songbirds, raccoon, coyote, woodchucks, ducks, woodcock and more, between the tillable land, pasture/brushy areas, stream and woodlot, in its remote location. The property is less than 1 mile away from the Beaver Meadow State Forest (5816 acres) as well as less than 8 miles away from the Perkins Pond State Forest (1895 acres) and the Pharsalia Wildlife Management Area with another 4625 acres for hunting, hiking, fishing, camping & snowmobiling. Renowned trout fishing in the Otselic River is less than 9 miles away and offers excellent fishing for trout, bass, pike, walleye and perch, among other species. Amenities, restaurants and shopping are available in Sherburne, 8 miles away and Norwich, 11 miles away, with Binghamton & Syracuse both within a 60-minute commute. NYC/George Washington Bridge is 3.5 hours away.
