This is a truly unique timber-frame retreat situated on 23 wooded acres located just outside the City of Hornell NY, Steuben County. The home features traditional cordwood masonry construction with sections of cherry hardwood set in mortar between exposed heavy timbers.
The post-and-beam framing, natural wood elements, and rustic design give this large home tremendous character and create a one-of-a-kind setting in the woods. The structure is currently an unfinished shell offering a great opportunity for someone looking to complete the structure to their own specifications as a seasonal retreat, recreational getaway, or an off-grid country home.
The home sits on a full block basement foundation and has electrical wiring throughout along with a recently installed asphalt roof. There is currently no well or septic system. Tucked away in the woods yet conveniently located just a few minutes from the City of Hornell and its amenities, the property offers an appealing combination of privacy and accessibility.
Legal access to the secluded property is provided by a 30-foot-wide deeded easement. The parcel is entirely wooded and consists primarily of conifers with hardwoods mixed throughout. The surrounding woods provide a private setting around the cabin while offering plenty of acreage to explore and enjoy.
This is an excellent recreational and hunting property with evident deer trails and abundant wildlife sign throughout the land. Large agricultural fields on neighboring properties provide an excellent surrounding habitat for whitetail deer and other wildlife. A unique opportunity to own a secluded timber-frame home on 23 wooded acres with excellent recreational potential, all within minutes of Hornell.
