This 1.07-acre property offers a rare opportunity to build with key infrastructure already in place, including a drilled well, septic system, and electric service.
Whether you're planning a full-time residence, spec home, vacation property, or investment build, having utilities established can significantly reduce upfront development time and expense.
Positioned in the heart of the Catskills, the property is close to many of the Hudson Valley's most popular destinations and outdoor attractions. Enjoy easy access to skiing at Hunter and Windham Mountains, hiking and biking trails, golf courses, fishing, waterfalls, farmers markets, breweries, and farm-to-table dining.
This offering is currently being sold as vacant land with improvements only, but buyers also have the option to purchase engineered and town-approved plans for a proposed 2-bedroom, 2-bath contemporary home, allowing the next owner to move more quickly toward the building process with plans already in place. Buyers may also explore the option of purchasing the property with a proposed tiny container home package.
Surrounded by the natural beauty and four-season recreation that continue to draw buyers to the region, this property offers flexibility and potential in one of Upstate New York's most desirable areas. Ideal for builders, investors, or buyers looking to create a custom home or retreat in the Catskills with utilities already in place.
