About this home
Located just minutes from Watkins Glen International Raceway, Seneca Lake, the world-famous Watkins Glen Gorge, and the thriving village of Watkins Glen, this exceptional land parcel offers a builder or investor a genuine opportunity in one of New York's most sought-after lifestyle destinations.
A recent residential sale of $540,000 for the 4 bed 2.5 bath home on the adjacent property that this land surrounds establishes strong buyer demand for development potential at this price point. A speculative layout supports 9-10 residential lots of approximately 2–3 acres each, served by a private road with culvert creek crossing and no through traffic. The rear 15–20 acres are wooded and sloped, ideal for a hunting reserve, conservation easement, or future phases of development beyond the immediate subdivision concept.
The parcel features road frontage in two places on Townsend Road, an on-site creek, and a mix of open and wooded terrain. Electricity, cable, and high-speed internet anvailable ant the road. All concept layouts are speculative and subject to municipal planning and survey review.
Whether you're a regional builder looking for your next project, an investor seeking Finger Lakes land for your portfolio, or a lifestyle buyer dreaming of an estate compound near wine country and one of motorsport's most iconic venues, this land checks every box.
