Property Description
Heritage Forest presents a unique opportunity to own 280+ acres of forestland with a spacious residence, allowing the perfect combination of land management, hunting retreat potential, and rural residential living. The property is in New York’s Southern Tier region in central Allegany County. Situated 3 miles north of the Village of Angelica, the area includes a mix of privately owned, mid-sized lots with 2 county owned properties abutting the parcel. Full-time residents are scattered throughout a landscape mostly occupied by farms and forested property.
Access is excellent with just over 1,000 feet of frontage along County Road 15. A 350+ foot grass driveway leads to the 2-story, 3,400+ sq. ft. house surrounded by a maintained 1.5 acre lawn. Inside, 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, 2 kitchens, and 2 living rooms provide a great setting for gathering family and friends. An extensive network of trails provides easy recreational access throughout the property. The forest resource is a well-managed, multi-aged blend of mostly oak, hickory, maple, and white pine. Two harvests conducted since 2011 benefit both wildlife proliferation and future market value appreciation.
The Village of Angelica is steeped in history as the county’s oldest village and celebrates this in its preservation of the buildings and homes within the Registered Historic District. A 4-mile drive to I-86 provides access east and west across the southern portion of New York state. Rochester and Buffalo, New York can be reached in 1.5 hours, while the Pennsylvania state border is just under an hour south.
