TThis 9.96-acre property in Onondaga County, New York offers a strong residential setting with space, privacy, and practical access already in place. Located in the City of Syracuse, the land sits in a nice residential area just a few minutes from downtown Syracuse, giving a future owner a balance of convenience and room to plan. With 490 feet of road frontage along Glenwood Ave, the property has direct frontage that supports straightforward access from the road. The land is wooded and undeveloped, creating a natural setting for someone looking for a residential property with a more private feel while still being close to city amenities.
Per the City, the zoning is Single Unit Residential (R-1), and the stated use is single family residential. Accessory Dwelling Units are allowed, while mobile homes and trailers are not allowed. Manufactured homes might be allowed if built to zoning standards and placed on a foundation. This makes the property especially compelling for a buyer looking at a single-family residential build in an established area where schools are nearby and utilities are available at the road.
The land is described as mostly flat, with the ground sloping upward as it reaches the back property line. That combination gives the parcel a usable feel while still offering some natural variation toward the rear of the property. The wooded character adds privacy and a sense of separation, while the undeveloped condition allows the next owner to shape the property around their plans. For a buyer looking to build a home, the setting offers acreage, a residential neighborhood location, and convenient access to Syracuse.
Power is available at the road, and water is also available at the road, which are important existing advantages for a future residential project. Septic is noted as nearby, and sewer would need to be confirmed. An existing survey is available, while no soil test is noted. These details give a buyer a clearer starting point for due diligence while still leaving the appropriate items to be verified before moving forward.
The property is also positioned near several regional destinations and conveniences. Syracuse is the closest city at about 10 minutes away, and Rochester is listed as the closest major city at about 90 minutes away. West Shore Trail Fishing Pier is about 11 minutes away, offering nearby outdoor recreation, while Lake Ontario is about 1 hour away. With downtown Syracuse only a few minutes from the property, this location supports both everyday convenience and access to larger outdoor and regional destinations.
There is no additional acreage available, and owner financing is not available. The property stands on its own as a 9.96-acre residential opportunity with frontage, wooded land, nearby schools, and utilities at the road. For a buyer seeking land in Syracuse with room for a single-family residential build, this parcel brings together location, acreage, and a practical path for further planning.
