About this land

Beautiful valley views and mature hardwood forest highlight this recreational property in Richford, New York. Completely wooded with mixed hardwoods, the land offers the privacy and natural surroundings many buyers are looking for when choosing a location for an off-grid cabin or hunting camp. The property is located along a seasonal road, lending itself to a traditional off-grid setup. Build a simple woodland retreat and enjoy hunting and outdoor recreation right from your own land. The surrounding Richford area dramatically expands your recreational possibilities. Robinson Hollow, Michigan Hill, Andersen Hill, Beaver Dam, Turkey Hill and Griggs Gulf State Forests collectively provide thousands of acres of public land. Nearby activities include hunting, hiking, trout fishing, snowmobiling, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. The Finger Lakes Trail winds through nearby Robinson Hollow State Forest, and both branches of Owego Creek provide additional opportunities for anglers, making this an excellent location for a Southern Tier base camp. Ithaca and Cayuga Lake are only about 20 minutes away, providing convenient access to the Finger Lakes while allowing you to enjoy the peace and space of the countryside. Financing available.

    Questions to ask before you buy

    Good questions for any home near the slopes.

    1. How is the property reached in winter, and who plows the road and driveway?A short straight-line distance can still mean a long or seasonal drive. Private roads, gates and mountain passes all shape winter access.
    2. Is there documented ski access from the property (trail, easement, lift), and does it transfer to a buyer?Rights to cross neighboring land or use a lift come from recorded easements and agreements, so a ski-in or ski-out description is where the question starts.
    3. Are there association, resort or club fees, and what do they cover?Some ski-area communities charge fees that cover only certain amenities, so ask what lift tickets, passes and services are included.
    4. Are there rules on renting the home short-term or long-term?Local ordinances, association covenants and deed restrictions all set rental rules, and they differ from place to place.
    5. What do heating, snow removal, winterization and utilities cost over a season?Ownership costs in snow country often run higher than the mortgage estimate suggests.
    6. For land: is there legal year-round access, and what utilities, septic and building rules apply?Seasonal roads and steep lots can limit what can be built and when it can be reached.
