Condos for Sale in Big Flats, NY

Big Flats, New York, is a Chemung County community that sits between Corning and Horseheads, giving residents a straightforward drive to nearby commercial areas and attractions. Interstate 86 runs through town, with about 10-minute drives to both Corning and Horseheads, and connects to State Route 14 for trips to Elmira and Watkins Glen. Elmira Corning Regional Airport is located right in Big Flats, which makes flying convenient, though some parts of town sit under the flight path and experience occasional jet noise. Housing ranges from older Nationals and Cape Cods to more recent Colonial Revivals, split-levels and contemporary homes built within the last 25 years, along with open lots for new construction. Lot sizes vary widely, from three-to-five-acre parcels in places like Quail Run to roughly half-acre to one-acre properties in areas such as Davenport Forest. Families are zoned to Horseheads High, which has a strong reputation. On the east end, national retailers cluster around shopping centers and the Arnot Mall, while the west end leans more local with spots like Minier’s grocery and long-running Denny’s Sub Shop. Recreation is a major draw, with Big Flats Community Park, Beverly’s Pond, Bottcher’s Landing and Willowcreek Golf Club in town, plus nearby Harris Hill Amusement Park, the National Soaring Museum and Tanglewood Nature Center adding to the area’s attractions.
