Wooded recreational land with camp or home site options
Be a part of something really special: supporting the proud mission of conserving the lands and waters on which all life depends. This beautiful wooded property is offered through a trust with Tug Hill Tomorrow Land Trust, a non-profit organization who's mission is to protect the wildlands, working forests and farms of the Tug Hill region and surrounding areas, and to promote appreciation of the region's natural and cultural heritage for present and future generations. As the new owner you can support that mission while still enjoying all this property offers: hunt, hike, camp and enjoy any outdoor sport or activity throughout this property, including building a new seasonal camp or a year round home, and take timber from the property, within the parameters of The Nature Conservancy's trust easement. While the property has road frontage on three sides, with electric nearby in some locations, it is private and secluded, maximizing your quiet enjoyment of nature and the diverse wildlife here. The land is gently sloped with level areas. It is heavily wooded with a mixture of soft and hardwoods, with future timber income potential. There is 4847' of frontage on year round maintained roads, making this large property easily accessible on three sides. There is an off-grid rustic cabin located conveniently down a nice ATV trail off the seasonal road (Hall Road). It is approximately 16 x 16 with a loft and could comfortably sleep 4-6 adults. With some fixing up, it could be a great hunting or camping spot for the new owner. Several additional public lands are located close by including the 2880 acre lake at Hinckley Reservoir, only 10 minute drive away, which has a large beach/swimming area, picnic pavilion with tables & grills, volleyball court, basketball net (with balls available), horseshoe pit (horseshoes available), and hiking and biking trails. In addition, the Black River and Ferris Lake Wild Forests, as part of the renowned Adirondack Park, are less than 30 minutes and provide nearly limitless opportunity to explore the beauty and wildlife of the North Country. For shopping and amenities, the Village of Cold Brook is 2.9 miles from this property, Utica and Rome are less than 30 minutes away, Albany is 1 hour, 45 minutes and NYC/George Washington Bridge is 3 hours 40 minutes. A pristine property supported by a great mission at an affordable price.
