Welcome to your own private retreat in Palermo! Set on an incredible 17.38 acres with almost 500 ft of road frontage, this property offers the kind of space, privacy, and freedom that is getting harder to find — while still being only about 15–20 minutes from shopping, highways, and everyday conveniences due to it’s location in Central Oswego County. This property is located within the desirable Mexico School District. The setting is truly special, with apple trees, small ponds, trails through the property, and plenty of room to explore, relax, garden, recreate, or simply enjoy the peace and quiet. Adding even more value is the impressive 56' x 36' pole barn, complete with a cozy upstairs apartment, lower-level storage area, and an oversized rear garage door. The Pole barn has new siding, doors and windows, making this a fantastic opportunity for guest space, extended family, hobbies, rental or additional flexible use. The home itself offers 5 bedrooms and 2 full baths, along with a spacious and inviting layout. Enjoy an open formal dining room, a separate morning room, and an extra-large living room with a pellet stove and balcony overlooking the property — the perfect place to take in the beautiful surroundings. The lower level provides even more usable space for a family room, office, recreation area, or additional living space, and walks directly out to a patio and a fenced-in area of nearly 3/4 acre. Recent updates add even more appeal, including newer appliances, new gutters, a new metal roof, new doors, and several newer windows. Whether you’re looking for privacy, acreage, workshop and storage space, room for extended family, or simply a property that gives you space to breathe, this one checks so many boxes. 17+ acres, trails, pond, pole barn with apartment, updated home, and an incredible country setting — all within a convenient drive to various towns. This is a property you’ll want to experience in person.
