Bad Bear Hill

Encompassing nearly 1,000 acres, Bad Bear Hill offers an exceptional, large-scale land investment opportunity in the rolling hills of southern Steuben County. Just southwest of the charming and vibrant city of Corning, New York, this contiguous ownership is benefitted by strong recreational amenities and conservation opportunities. Bad Bear Hill is bounded by McCarthy Hills State Forest and Pinnacle State Park to the west and the Canisteo River to the north, with nearly immediate access to Interstates 99 and 15 on its eastern border. Quality mid-rotational hardwood and softwood forest shades much of the property on predominately upland sites, interspersed with a series of small open fields. Bad Bear Hill is benefited just as well by its proximity to more domestic amenities such as private and regional airports, an 18-hole golf course, and a thriving but quaint downtown area in Corning.

The subject is accessed by two primary points and contains an established internal road and trail system. In addition to this favorable lay of land and resource, this property offers the potential opportunity for conservation, residential/commercial and/or renewable energy development, and recreational optionality. Investments in land tend to hedge against inflation, provide sustainable and impact-investment opportunity, and offer low correlation to equities markets.
