0WP Panther Mt Rd, Otsego, NY 13439

Private hunting or home site, field/woods, wildlife crossing

Located within 15 minutes of Cooperstown and between two pristine lakes, this beautiful property, while high on Panther Mountain, lies mostly flat, with a portion near the road consisting of open meadows and a former ag field, providing choice camp, cabin or home site options to the new owner. The existing driveway onto the property has plenty of room for a camper to be pulled in as well as ample space for parking and turnaround. The open meadows and ag fields could be restored for crops or pasture for beef or horses. The wooded area is a mixture of oak, maple, ash, and cherry hardwoods - offering deer and turkey habitat as well as potential timber income. A mixture of Hemlock and pine are also scattered throughout the property. Deer and turkey live on and cross through this property as evidence by trails, rubs and scrapes. This is a very nice hunting property as it is now and if desired, following QDMA recommended practices, could be even more enhanced with strategic location of food plots, tree stands and shooting lanes. With electric available nearby, it also offers really nice options for a hunting camp or home. Nestled in the heart of the famous Leatherstocking Region, this property is close to all the amenities a buyer could desired with Cooperstown 15 minutes away and Oneonta just over a half hour, and both offering shopping, colleges, restaurants, cultural & historical attractions, baseball enthusiasts with the National Baseball Hall of Fame, Cooperstown Dreams Park and Cooperstown All-Star Park; several NYS Parks and Forests (Glimmerglass State Park and Public Beach, Exeter State Forest, Milford State Forest, Hartwick State Forest), amazing fishing on clear, unpolluted lakes for lake trout, walleye and perch and boating very close on either side of this property with Otsego Lake (4046 acres) and Canadarago Lake, as well as the many streams and rivers in the area. This property has so much to offer a buyer interested in hunting, wildlife, natural and cultural attractions, with many nearby amenities and is located only 3.5 hours from NYC/George Washington Bridge.
