Several additional openings throughout the property are gradually returning to brush and could easily be reclaimed for pasture, wildlife food plots, or expanded homestead use. A network of established trails provides easy access throughout the property for hiking, ATV riding, and hunting. Surrounded primarily by open farmland, the property offers exceptional wildlife habitat and is located within New York Wildlife Management Unit 7M, an area well known for producing quality white-tailed deer and excellent hunting opportunities.
