What a great location for your primary or seasonal home on these 3 mostly wooded acres with a small cleared area and roughed-in dirt driveway already in place on the south end of the property. If you are looking for a home site or property in the Watkins Glen School District that is near many recreational amenities in the area, this affordable option will be sure to please.

Located only a short 12 minute drive from the center of Watkins Glen sits this nicely situated wooded lot. The topography is almost level and gently sloped for easy walking. Several nice spots to build a camp or year-round home. There was noticeable deer sign when I walked the property and plenty of habitat for them. The property offers over 1000 feet of road frontage and has electric available at the road. There is a driveway on the property and goes almost to the woods in the back. A nice mix of pines and open areas throughout the acreage near the road, and the property becomes all open.
As the MLS and public records start to fill up, we'll list the details here.
