A multi-use property that is extremely versatile
and breathtakingly beautiful

Layout of the Property

Primitive drawing indicating location of buildings on land. (not to scale).

There are two driveways coming in off of Route 7. Automobiles can be parked in very close proximity to the homes. There is a long boardwalk between the main house and residence 1, a set of stairs and walk between residence 1 and residence 2 another set of stairs and walk between main house and residence 3.

The homes and barn are located a very comfortable distance from one another, the cabin is a good walk up the hill into the wood lot. The meadows surrounding the homes and barn are all very easily accessible especially for machinery needed to maintain the grounds.

Route 7 is a well-maintained state road making the property very accessible in bad weather. The school bus will stop directly in front of the main house if there are children to pick up. Shopping in Unadilla (1 mile to the east) or Sidney (3 miles to the west) provides for all your immediate needs. Route I-88 (7/10 of a mile) will give you access to Oneonta (east 20 minutes) or Binghamton (west 45 minutes) for the larger discount and department stores.
