What a great opportunity with so many options: great hunting camp, vacation getaway, or possible year-round home building lot. There is currently a two-story older dairy barn with an open loft and a newer ample equipment storage shed that could be used for small farm operations, livestock, converted for horses, or workshop/small business opportunities. The barn has electrical service available and a drilled well. There are 34+ acres of active tillable and pasture land, offering income potential through leasing to area farmers or starting a small farm operation of your own. The property is less than a one-quarter mile east from the Mariposa State Forest along the Finger Lakes Trail, providing an additional 3002 acres for hunting, hiking, and camping and miles of snowmobiling trails available for winter fun as well.
