Beautiful country estate

Discover the ultimate hilltop sanctuary with unmatched convenience! This stunning farm property offers a rare combination of high-elevation privacy and effortless accessibility, located just minutes from the vital I-81 corridor. If you have been searching for a property that captures the true essence of Central New York’s rural beauty without sacrificing the ease of a quick commute, this Piety Ridge gem is an absolute must-see. Situated just over the hill's crest, the farm enjoys breathtaking views of the surrounding valley, providing a dramatic and inspiring backdrop for a wide variety of rural and agricultural pursuits. The journey to the property is as scenic as the destination itself. From I-81, take Exit 9 in Marathon and follow Main Street toward the double-lane on-ramp for 81 North. A quick right onto Galatia Street (Rt 116) leads you into the heart of the countryside, followed by a right onto Conrad Road. At the fork, keep right onto Piety Ridge Road; the farm reveals itself just as you crest the hill on your left. This strategic location ensures that while you feel worlds away from the hustle and bustle, you are perfectly positioned for easy travel to Binghamton, Cortland, or Syracuse, making it an ideal choice for a primary residence, a seasonal retreat, or a commercial agricultural operation that requires easy shipping access. The land itself is versatile and well-suited for a variety of visions. Whether you dream of establishing a boutique livestock farm, a private equestrian estate, or a secluded family compound, the rolling terrain of Piety Ridge provides the space and character you need. The "top-of-the-world" feel of the building sites allows for architectural designs that maximize natural light and capture the stunning 360-degree views of the Marathon landscape.
