Description
This large storage barn with a log structure is on 78 wooded acres bordering Genegantslet State Forest in Oxford NY.
This property was once a Church Summer Camp for kids blessed with the sounds of children playing and exploring. More recently, the 40 x 60 section with concrete floor and 15 ft. inside clearance has been used for storing equipment and vehicles. The dwelling portion with a cafeteria, kitchen, activities room and second floor sleeping quarters remains looking almost like it did 30 years ago. The dwelling section needs restoration but the metal roof appears to have kept the entire interior dry and sound. The entire structure has much potential for a variety of uses such as a hunting camp or club, a storage building, or a home. It is being sold as-is since it has not been used as an occupied camp for a long time.
There are trails in the woods, now being used by deer, with some trails leading to small bunk houses with metal roofs that have bunks in them set up to hold 6 to 10 kids. Surprisingly, some of the bunk houses are still in usable condition! The trails continue through a forest with a good assortment of softwoods and hardwoods, some of which are definitely marketable. There is no sign of recent logging. The northwest section of the property lies along a seasonal dirt road that is a border of the 3,181 acre Genegantslet State Forest, which is additional land available for hunting and fishing.
The nearest city is Norwich NY. Cortland and Binghamton are less than an hour away. There are nearby state lands with streams and lakes with good trout and bass fishing. Central NY Finger Lakes wine country and Ithaca are around an hour away. New York City and northern Philadelphia are both around 3 hours away.
No one is allowed on the property without permission nor without being accompanied by an agent.
