If you are an outdoor enthusiast that desires the opportunity to fully engage with nature, this property may be perfect for you! On this 10.28 acre, recently surveyed parcel, you will find stone fences and barb wire along the boundaries as evidence of a time when clearing the land was a top priority. Farming was both a livelihood, as well as a means of survival. Land characteristics of this parcel include a slightly sloped terrain from a high and dry northeast corner to a relatively wet woods, southwest corner. Stone and barb wire around the perimeter is evidence that livestock were once pastured here. When grazing stopped, the land gradually returned to forest. The current vegetation attracts a wide variety of wildlife species including: whitetail deer, black bear, snowshoe hare, ruffed grouse, and turkey. There is a desirable mix of soft and hardwood tree species present. Some timber was harvested over 20 years ago (2014-2016). Existing logging trails make excellent x-country skiing, snow-shoeing, hiking, and ATV trails. The predominant sawtimber species include: sugar & red maple, yellow birch, eastern hemlock, white ash, American basswood, white pine, American beech, and quaking aspen. Some of the best fishing in the country is less than 30 miles away; the Salmon River, famous for its king and coho salmon, brown trout, steelhead, and rainbow trout, and Lake Ontario for more of the same, plus; walleye, bass, pike, and perch. This would be an ideal property for someone to build a country home with a short commute to Syracuse, Oswego, or Pulaski in less than 30 minutes. Electric and communication utilities are available roadside. All rights transfer to the new owner. Also, the property boundaries and existing corner markers are flagged, blazed, and painted. The Syracuse International Airport is found off 81, just north of the city. Snowmobile trail C5 is just minutes east and the best ATV trails are further north on the Tug Hill Plateau of Jefferson and Lewis Counties. Not quite what you were looking for?
