Description

This lovely 5+ ac lot was originally part of the Long View Farm subdivision, and oh how true that name is. The partially wooded lot has a near perfect building site with that long range view on the front acreage. Kersmanc Rd is town maintained, and there is a new culvert pipe and driveway started to enter the lot from the road. The land was part of a classic dairy farm with a mix of open fields, and standing hardwood forests in the rolling hills of the Maple Valley near Cooperstown. Less than a mile...This lovely 5+ ac lot was originally part of the Long View Farm subdivision, and oh how true that name is. The partially wooded lot has a near perfect building site with that long range view on the front acreage. Kersmanc Rd is town maintained, and there is a new culvert pipe and driveway started to enter the lot from the road. The land was part of a classic dairy farm with a mix of open fields, and standing hardwood forests in the rolling hills of the Maple Valley near Cooperstown. Less than a mile to the 3,500 acre Bear Swamp State Forest with a 14+ mile marked trail system (cross-country skiing, hiking, horseback riding and mt. biking). There are 12+ miles of snowmobile trails in Bear Swamp State Forest, which include 2.5 mi. of corridor trail and the 10 mi. Bear Swamp/Ridge Rd loop trail. A large wetland and creek bisect the forest and provide excellent opportunities for those who love to paddle. (r. Milton Hick State Forest, Maple Valley State Forest, and Decatur State Forest are also nearby.) This lot, with 340+ feet of road frontage, would make an appealing setting for your perfect home (deed restriction preventing single-wide homes). A private well can be dug without having to get an additional permit. Minutes to Cooperstown, under an hour from Oneonta, and 75 miles to Albany International Airport.
