Property Description
The highlights of this ~103 acre, completely wooded parcel is the maze of trails which make hunting, walking, snowshoeing, cross country skiing or riding through easy and enjoyable, as well as it’s proximity to public ATV and Snowmobile Trails. Deer are also quite fond of these trails, as witnessed by numerous scrapes, rubs and paths across the property. The predominately hardwood and pine forest has been managed for timber production for ~15 years or more. A recent thinning has stimulated the growth of tree seedlings, blackberries and raspberries, as well as improved the growing space for the remaining trees.
A tributary to the Black River originates on the property. It is a small seasonal creek that runs north to a marshy area near the Abbey Road. Nearby are lands owned by Lewis County and New York State, including the High Towers State Forest, which are managed for multiple use, and the Independence River Wild Forest which is inside the ‘Blue Line’ and is ‘Forever Wild’.
The northern boundary of the property has frontage on the Abbey Road which is seasonally maintained and open to ATVs. From this location you can hop on your sled or ATV and ride in almost any direction!
The adjacent ~100-acre property with a modern, off-grid, well-constructed cabin with water and septic, is also for sale by the seller for $174,900. Access is via the Town Line Road. Owning both parcels would double your outdoor recreational space and place you on Snowmobile Trail C8B and adjacent to State Land.
There are numerous destinations in the area for outdoor enthusiasts to discover and activities to enjoy including; hiking trails throughout the Independence River Wild Forest, horseback riding and cross-country skiing on the Otter Creek Horse Trails, canoeing, kayaking and fishing along the Black and Beaver River Canoe Routes, downhill skiing at Snow Ridge in Turin and more cross-country skiing at BREIA in Boonville to name a few.
All in all, a great location for you and your family to build your personal getaway for numerous outdoor activities in the foothills of the Adirondacks!
