About this land
Numerous recreation or business opportunities on this unique property which features an insulated metal building, well, septic and tillable and wooded acreage. The large metal building (43' x 45') was built in 1995 and features a well and septic which service a small bathroom and kitchenette. The building was once the site of an aviation business and the property has a unique commercial/manufacturing zoning in place offering an opportunity for those looking for a great business location. The property also lies within an Agriculture zone so farming opportunities are also possible. There is an even mixture of overgrown fields and timber throughout the property. The southwest half of the property is entirely wooded with a mixture of hard and soft woods including cherry, maple, hemlock and white pine. Several of the overgrown fields could be cleared and reclaimed with some work. The long open field in the middle of the property was once the site of a private runway extending for roughly 2,000'+/-. Hunters take notice this property sets up incredibly well to take advantage of quality deer and turkey hunting. Heavy trails and multiple buck rubs are evidence of consistent use. There is quality cover and browse with ample food sources from native forbs to red osier dogwoods and apples from numerous apple trees throughout the property. Several of the fields could be reclaimed for food plots that would take the property to the next level. The terrain is nearly flat throughout the property with no significant elevation changes. Roughly 542' of road frontage. This is the perfect location for your small business or recreation property. There is an adjacent 11.8 acres with a "Tiny Cabin" and wildlife pond also being offered separately. Just minutes away is Rural Grove State Forest where you can enjoy additional recreational activities. 9.5 miles to Canajoharie and access to I-90.

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.
