33.06 wooded acres with a stream, timber and adjoins state land in the Town of Gerry

Property Description

The property is almost entirely forested, with younger forest on the front half and more mature timber forest on the back half.  The main forested area is divided by the main stream that bisects the property from east to west.  This is a full, four-seasons flowing stream making it great for both families and wildlife alike.

Some timber was harvested last about 5 years ago.  The harvest was well done and there remains a significant value in timber on the back portion of the property.  While timber could be cut now, it will be best to let it continue to grow for about another 7-10 years to maximize value.  The predominant species are hard maple, red oak, white oak, white ash, black cherry, hickory, beech and hemlock.  From this list it is also evident that there is an abundance of mast producing species creating a plentiful food source for wildlife.  Deer and turkey sign is evident throughout the parcel.

The other key feature to this property is that it adjoins NYS land on both the full length of the east and north boundaries.  Harris Hill State Forest is 2,271 acres in size, providing directly adjacent abundant recreational opportunities to the new owner of this property.  Within a brief walk up the hill on 28^th Creek Road is an access point and parking area for access to the Eastside Overland Trail system.  This is a hiking and cross-country ski trail system that is open to the public every day.  Again, providing yet another great attribute to owning this property.

Besides the great hunting and hiking opportunities, this property is close to the area snowmobile trail system, Chautauqua Lake, Lake Erie, Chautauqua Institute, Wine Country and the regions Amish Trail.  This is a terrific chance to own a great wooded property with a stream that adjoins State Land in the heart of the best recreational opportunities in Chautauqua County!
