Property Description
The property has 158 feet of road frontage on South Main Street Extension. There is good access here and the 158 feet of width extends only 199 feet before opening to 942 feet of total width. Electric is available at the road front.
The property is part of a former working farm comprised of 15-20 acres in farm fields with the balance being entirely forested. There are some small areas of reverting fields into brush and one small pine plantation near the road front. Otherwise, the majority of the property is young forest. The forest is comprised of maple, ash, cherry, beech, hemlock, some oak, and more. This is a young, developing forest in good condition and with a limited amount of timber in it at present valued at $10-$15,000. This will only improve as the forest develops over time.
The farm fields are currently under lease with Falcone Farms. The owners entered into a lease in order to maintain the integrity of the fields. There are 3 years remaining on this agricultural lease that will transfer and be binding to the new owner.
There are some nice views of the country-side from the farm field areas on this property, making it an ideal location for a new or second home or camp. The matrix of woods and open agricultural fields provides great habitat for deer, turkey and other wildlife. The easy terrain and diverse cover makes this a great hunting property.
Access is excellent throughout the property. The gas lease road along a portion of the north boundary provides great access to the far west portion of the property at the west gas well. The road also provides access to the gas well at the west edge of the farm fields. Old roads through the woods are usable by foot or ATV. The oil and gas rights to both gas wells will transfer to the new owner subject to the existing lease.
This property is in a great location in the country, yet close to everything. Chautauqua Lake is just minutes away as is the local mall and shopping area. Chautauqua Institute, Amish Country, the local snowmobile trail system and much more is in close proximity.
