About this home

Welcome to this over 15 acre west facing building lot parcel offering daily sunsets and sunrises. This inspiring mix of open land, mature woods, and flowing water hugging the north boundary and into the back of the property — an ideal setting for a future homesite, retreat, or small-scale agricultural vision. With 5.5 acres of open hay field and the balance in a lightly wooded landscape rich with sugar maple, the property has both usability and natural beauty. Mill Creek weaves on and off the land, adding movement, sound, and character to the property. Mill Creek is known for its cool, clean waters that support wildlife and feed into larger watershed systems throughout the region. Its presence adds both habitat and charm, offering spots to explore, sit, and take in the surroundings. The lot is shaped for flexibility — mostly level with subtle rolls, making it easy to navigate and straightforward for future building. With approximately 550 feet of road frontage, access is convenient without compromising privacy. Just 20 minutes from Ithaca, you’re close to one of the Finger Lakes’ most vibrant hubs — home to Cornell University, Ithaca College, the city’s renowned farm-to-table dining, outdoor markets, arts scene, and miles of public waterfront along Cayuga Lake. Nearby, you’ll find Buttermilk Falls, Taughannock Falls, Treman State Park, and Finger Lakes National Forest, providing endless hiking, kayaking, and outdoor activities. Whether you're planning a homestead, a cabin getaway, or a build that blends field and forest, this property offers a rare combination of open land, maple-rich woods, and the added beauty of Mill Creek threading through it. Come take a walk through this diverse property offering everything you have been waiting for.
