Privacy and Proximity-112 Acres Windham Estate. The opportunity of this special 112 acres large tract of land is only limited to your imagination. Ideas include small to large scale development, with 20 + residences, recreational land, to a luxury family compound, this estate offers a verified Right of Way for a magnificent entrance, and only recently confirmed. A survey completed in early 2022 identified the entrance point, a large hurdle of selling previously, as a viable entrance could not be identified. (The recent survey completed in photo sequence offers confirmation of approximate 76 off ownership to Route 23). The property offers both privacy and proximity to Windham, a rarity in the past few years. For those who are considering a larger scale development project, there is a 5 acre lot minimum; therefore, pending town approval, the next owner would be able to build over 20 homes, cabins, or other types of dwellings. There is a possibility of working with a neighboring owner to expand this opportunity, based on a fair and equitable agreement between the two parties. The breadth and expansive hilltop meadow is the first wow factor as you enter the property. One would approach this hilltop meadow through the verified property entrance of 76 feet. The pasture/meadow faces south for optimum sunlight year-round, with the earth evenly and gently sloping for beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Minor selective thinning of trees could produce absolutely stunning views for a home, or a series of homes, resting at the top of the meadow and at the beginning of the woodland areas. They could have magnificent 270 degree views down the eastern and western Bataviakill Valley fronts. The forest is plentiful with stone walls and sugar maples to tap for syrup. Complete and utter silence exists upon entering the forest, for those seeking the ideal tranquil location. There is both ample water and base material for roads and other project endeavors, a major development cost-savings asset. The large stone quarry exists to the west of the meadow. There is a current grass, dirt, and stone road, wide enough for a truck or SUV, meandering its way up the gently sloping mixed forest for approximately .5 miles, eventually leading to an old cabin, with wood that can be salvaged from a late 1700's barn. It also faces a small pond. There are over a mile of trails for snowmobiling, ATVing and hiking. The property is 57% deciduous forest(seasonal foliage), which allows for incredible views during the late fall, winter, and spring months, 6% evergreen, 29% mixed forest, and 8 % pastoral lands. From the top, there is a unique opportunity to place a look-out tower, as the property goes to the very top of Gun Knob Mountain, where a structure can exploit the stunning 360 degree opportunity. You will also notice giant, tiered rock cliffs as you approach the summit. The property is less than a 5 minute drive from the town of Windham, Windham Resort, and less than 1.5 miles away from Christman's Golf Course, a dynamic 27 hole course, with grounds for all levels of talent. As you drive past Windham, you will notice multiple new commercial development projects being developed. This is an EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY for a multi-generational family estate, where a family could segment scaling out, as their children get older, and so on. Any large real estate asset over 100 acres, proximate to any mountain resort is a solid long-term investment, according to one of the most nationally recognized alpine/resort property analytics firms. There is simply not a lot of acreage for sale, especially over 100 acres, this close to the resort and town. It is only 2.5 hours from Manhattan. Windham is uniquely positioned to be a power player in the alpine real estate and development sector in the coming years.
