Tucked into the hillside along Ringwood Road, this 76.4+/- acre property offers a rare opportunity to own a large, contiguous block of timberland in the heart of Tompkins County. As you enter from the road, a newly installed culvert and driveway provide easy access into the property, leading to a cleared opening that could make an excellent location for a future home, hunting camp, or weekend retreat. From there, the land begins to climb, gaining elevation as it stretches deep into the hillside and creating the feeling of complete privacy and seclusion.
A network of established trails winds throughout the property, making it easy to explore on foot, ATV, or side-by-side. The timber has been selectively harvested, improving access while maintaining the property's wooded character and creating a healthy mix of cover and habitat. Dense stands of hardwoods and softwoods blanket the landscape, while the rolling terrain, natural funnels, and abundant cover provide excellent conditions for whitetail deer, turkey, and other wildlife.
With approximately 1,350 feet of road frontage on Ringwood Road, access is straightforward while still offering the sense of being miles away from everything once you're inside the property. The contour of the land rises from roughly 1,240 feet along the road frontage to over 1,500 feet in elevation, creating opportunities for long-range views and multiple potential building locations. An electric and natural gas easement runs along the southern edge of the property, and electric is available at the road.
Located just minutes from the Village of Freeville and an easy drive to Ithaca, this property combines the privacy and recreation of a large wooded tract with convenient access to everyday amenities. Whether you're looking for a hunting property, a place to build your dream home in the woods, or a long-term land investment in the Finger Lakes region, this property offers the acreage, terrain, and setting to make it happen.
