1.11 Brigham Rd, Richford, NY 13835

A beautiful spring-fed pond makes this Richford NY property truly unique. The deep-water pond is populated with colorful koi and creates a peaceful centerpiece for an off-grid cabin or recreational camp. The land itself offers an attractive combination of open farm meadows and mature mixed hardwood forest. The open acreage provides room for a cabin site and outdoor living area overlooking the pond, while the surrounding woods add privacy, wildlife habitat and recreational space. Located on a seasonal road, the property is ideally suited to an off-grid setup. Beyond the property, Richford is surrounded by thousands of acres of public recreational land, including Robinson Hollow, Michigan Hill, Andersen Hill, Beaver Dam, Turkey Hill and Griggs Gulf State Forests. Hunting, hiking, snowmobiling, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing are all available in the surrounding area. The Finger Lakes Trail runs through nearby Robinson Hollow State Forest, and the East and West Branches of Owego Creek offer additional opportunities for trout fishing. Between the pond, meadow and mature forest, this is one of the more distinctive recreational properties in the group. Despite its peaceful rural setting, the property is only about 20 minutes from Ithaca and Cayuga Lake, putting shopping, dining, boating, fishing and Finger Lakes recreation within an easy drive. Financing available.
