Project Description

Seneca Farms is a 197 acre community of just nine country home sites. Ideal wooded/creek country home sites for hunting or country living, pastured home sites are ideally suited for horse farms or training/breeding facilities, country farms or rural estate living. This property with rolling hills, beautiful pastures, together with wooded and creek home sites and beautiful vistas of the surrounding countryside is located just 15 minutes from Erie’s $250 million dollar Casino/Race Track-Presque Isle Downs.

Natural gas hook-ups are available and all home sites are septic approved. An adequate supply of potable water, together with electric, telephone, and DSL make this a prime location for immediate development.

The low real estate tax of the “Clean & Green” real estate tax status, approximately 16 acres of land tax is less than $160 per year, makes Seneca Farms an especially attractive location.

The home sites are approximately 12-40 acres and the prices vary between $3,500 - $5,000 per acre. Owner financing may be available for qualified purchasers.

(Take Rt. 90 south to Rt. 8 – Wattsburg Road., go two miles past Seneca High School and turn left on Phillipsville Road. The home sites begin about ¼ mile north of Rt. 8 and continue to Page Road, turn left on Page Road to more home sites- see site plan for detail description)

The city of Erie has a population of approximately 100,000, having the feel of a country town, yet is accessible to shopping and a multitude of attractions not usually found in cities with the population of Erie. One of the reasons Erie is unique is that it is located near major interstate highways (I-79, I-86 and I-90) that access Ohio, New York and Canada, all of which have sales tax on food and clothing. Because these products are not taxed in Pennsylvania, this unique situation has creates a market for large retail tenants, many tourist attractions, including the famous beaches at Presque Isle State Park that attract millions of tourist that also visit Erie’s indoor sports facilities, indoor water parks, theme parks and more than 5,500 hotel rooms makes Erie unique because of its small town appeal together with the attractions and entertainment of a major community.

The new racetrack and casino, Presque Isle Downs, has added to the demand and influx of additional tourism and new employment. Development of the Erie Convention Center and hotel on the BAYFRONT, downtown re-development and new office parks have contributed to the increase in employment and business opportunities.

This is truly an opportunity to get in on the ground floor and reserve your dream location at Seneca Farms.
