Beautiful hilltop home on 50 acres with fantastic views in Willet NY, Cortland County.
The views in every direction from the home are gorgeous; farm fields, wooded hills, lake valleys, horses and cattle, wildlife and spacious skies. The only things missing are buildings, people, traffic, and noise! In just a few moments on the property, you will begin to feel your thoughts and worries disappear. The quiet beauty of nature and rural life will gently overwhelm you. Photo opts will be endless.
The woods serve as a source of Maple syrup and the bordering brush and fields provide an abundance of cover and food for deer, grouse, and turkey. The north facing slope is perfect for the many apple trees growing here. A small stream and several springs give you many options should you want to build a few ponds.

The house has been lived in year-round the last few years and seasonally for many years before that. It has a good foundation, a newer roof, updated electric, newer heating system and septic. With your imagination and your love, make this your dream home or retreat. You will feel the peace and quiet of nature and of country life but you will not be isolated. Several small towns are 10-15 minutes away, Binghamton and Cortland less than 30 minutes away and Syracuse or Ithaca and the Finger Lakes only 1 hour away.

Small streams like the Genegantslet are well-known for trout fishing. Greek Peak skiing is only 20 minutes away and there are miles of nearby snowmobile trails if you want to enjoy winter activity.
