The property fronts on Shoulette Road with the front half flat and cleared transitioning into gradually more covered area with ponds, trees, and shrubbery toward the rear. The open meadow character with lush green grass, wildflowers, and expansive upstate New York sky provides a head start over heavily wooded parcels, with the front and middle portions offering the clearest, most usable ground for homesite placement or building plans. The pond feature toward the rear adds natural charm and should be factored into site planning.
