About this property
Located along Route 6 about 9 miles west of Wellsboro in Tioga County, Pennsylvania, this 48.96 +/- acre property combines wooded recreational land with existing improvements and convenient access to one of north-central Pennsylvania's best-known outdoor recreation regions. The property consists of multiple parcels offered together as a single surface-rights-only sale. It includes approximately 47.6± acres of recreational land along with several smaller improved parcels near Route 6. The acreage features a mix of hardwoods and softwoods, varied terrain, and access through portions of the property. The wooded setting provides opportunities for hunting, wildlife habitat, hiking, recreation, and land investment. At 6520 Route 6 is a 1-bedroom, 1-bath mobile home with an addition and an oversized 2-car garage. The mobile home is in poor condition and will require substantial rehabilitation or removal. The garage provides useful space for vehicles, ATVs, UTVs, equipment, tools, and recreational gear. At 6528 Route 6 is an older 1-bedroom, 1-bath cabin/home dating to approximately 1944. The home is served by spring-fed water, oil-fired forced-air heat, electric service, and the shared on-site septic system. Buyers should independently evaluate the structure and determine its suitability for their intended use. An additional small lot includes electric service and a well whose current condition and status should be independently verified by buyers. The improvements at 6520 and 6528 share an on-site sewage system. The property is served by a spring-fed water system. The prior seller's property disclosure identifies the water system as shared and indicates that a written agreement exists. The current seller is working to confirm the sharing arrangement and locate any available agreement. Buyers should independently verify the water source, sharing arrangement, sewage system, and any associated agreements as part of their due diligence. The property is enrolled in Pennsylvania's Clean and Green program. Buyers should review any potential rollback-tax implications associated with a future change in use. The oil, gas, and mineral rights will not convey with the sale and will be retained by the seller. The property is therefore being offered as a surface-rights-only transaction. One of the strongest features of this property is its location. Wellsboro serves as a gateway to the Pine Creek Gorge region, with extensive public lands and opportunities for hunting, fishing, hiking, biking, and other outdoor recreation throughout the surrounding area. Tioga State Forest encompasses more than 161,000± acres in Tioga and Bradford counties, while Pine Creek Gorge, commonly known as the Pennsylvania Grand Canyon, is one of the region's signature destinations. Leonard Harrison and Colton Point State Parks provide access to scenic overlooks and hiking along the gorge. The Pine Creek Rail Trail extends through the region and provides additional opportunities for bicycling, walking, and cross-country skiing. The Route 6 location provides practical year-round access while keeping the property within reach of Wellsboro-area services, dining, fuel, and supplies. For buyers looking for acreage where the primary value is in the land and recreational setting, the property also offers existing utility infrastructure, storage, and improvements to work with. Potential uses include a hunting property, recreational retreat, seasonal base camp, land investment, or future improvement project. Buyers should independently verify permitted uses, utilities, water quality, sewage suitability, structural condition, parcel boundaries, access rights, and any plans for renovation, removal, or additional construction. With nearly 49 acres of wooded recreational land, Route 6 frontage, an oversized garage, existing improvements, and proximity to the Pine Creek Gorge region, this property offers a versatile Tioga County ownership opportunity.

Questions to ask before you buy
Good questions for any home near the slopes.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
