About this home
84 acres bordering Sugar Hill State Forest on all four corners — a rare offering in the Finger Lakes uplands where the land itself tells the story. A Conservation Easement held by the Finger Lakes Land Trust on 82 of the 84 acres, preserving the land's natural character in perpetuity. The remaining 2.228 acres adjacent to County Road 21 are unrestricted and include the residence.
The infrastructure here needs work, but it is substantial for a rural property of this scale. Solar panels installed in 2014 are owned outright and convey with the sale. Geothermal is in place, providing low-cost, high-efficiency climate control independent of utility fluctuations. A self-contained off-grid cabin built in 2021 rounds out the improvements — ideal as a guest retreat, hunting camp, or caretaker quarters.
The easement land is adjacent to thousands of acres of public forest, making this a compelling opportunity for conservation-minded buyers, hunters, hikers, or anyone seeking a private foothold in one of the most scenic and ecologically intact corridors in the Southern Finger Lakes. Sugar Hill State Forest is known for its trail network, wildlife habitat, and year-round recreation.
This is an estate sale. To be sold in its 'as-is' condition. Shown by appointment....
