Whitetail Properties is pleased to present an exceptional deer hunting property long known for its exclusiveness and impressive quality of deer and turkey hunting. Throughout this property’s history, only eight hunters were members of this club, and in recent years the members have been limited to only four hunters.  Steuben county is well known for its reputation as the number one county in New York for deer hunting, and this property is no stranger to that lore, both locally and abroad. The owner has personally amassed an impressive collection of trophy deer from this property, and the other members have equally filled their share of tags on big bucks too. Managed for deer and turkey hunting, this property is the perfect opportunity to build on an already thriving management plan, or to build a business as a hunting lodge destination, or for a group of hunters to collaborate and own an incredible piece of land groomed for their own personal and private deer hunting retreat.

THE LAND:

Immediately upon entering the property, you are greeted by two large open fields on either side of the driveway where many deer haver bee taken. You will note the land is a gently rolling and smooth crown of a mountain that borders the Cohoctan River. Many who know this land would recognize it having driven past it  on the I-390 expressway, where you can admire it from a distance. A groomed and well maintained network of roads and trails course all over the property through large stands of mature hardwoods and hemlocks, where you are pleasantly introduced to over 18 fields and secluded food plots of corn and clover.  A powerline transits the property making an easy shooting lane for hundreds of yards of deer watch as rutting bucks cruise the property. Each field and each food plot have one to several elevated shooting houses on them, custom built by the owner and strategically located for success. Several food plots additionally have ladder stands on them too. At the top of the hill is an older second house used as a deer camp with a metal barn for farm equipment, ATV’s and storage. There is a shooting range as well to hone in your skills and rifle. The house is a central retreat for deer camp with views over looking a large field and food plot. Just down the road a couple hundred yards from the upper house is a large pond as well, a good stop for puddle ducks and a little fishing. The property also has a complete inventory of hardwood ridges, hemlock bottoms and planted pine stands for a variety of habitat in, among and bordering all of the fields and food plots. An oasis for deer. Rare is it that such a large property comes available, with so much time, management and thought dedicated to it for quality deer hunting.

THE HOME: 

A nearly new three year old main house greets you on the lower parcel and at the top of the approach. This home is immaculately decorated and lovingly cared for with the hands of an owner that breathes pride of ownership at every corner.  An open concept design, the modular design affords large spanning rooms and an easy floor plan that connects a master retreat with ensuite bath to two bedrooms and a second bath at the opposite end of the house.  Between the retirement wings the kitchen is styled with recessed lighting above, and stylish drop lights over a 9’6 long island. The all stainless appliance accent pieces are fixtures to note, consistent with the quality throughout the home. A new front deck (24’ x 10’) is added, as well as a rear deck (12’ x 24’) that expands the living room from a sliding rear door where you can look over the farm and enjoy morning coffee by a sunrise. Connecting with a 9’ breezeway is a two bay 30’ x 30’garage with work shop, and an upper level recreational space, currently occupied as a man cave. This upper loft can be double served as additional living space as well. A complimenting building, called the she-shed is a wonderful storage building, gardening or potting shed with a three sided lean to for lawn equipment storage. It has its own power and has a plug in for an RV on its own circuit. In all, this is move in ready main home, set for relaxed and easy living in the quiet of the country.
