Home or vacation spot w pond, close to Pepacton Reservoir

Don't miss when opportunity knocks: your new home, hunting/fishing base camp or vacation getaway awaits you less than 1/2 mile from Pepacton Reservoir. Electric and well (details unknown) are already present on the property, along with a gated driveway leading you up a moderate grade to a cleared fairly level area, with a small pond, that would make an ideal building spot. There are wild apple trees along with a mixed woods and rock outcroppings, as the grade increases towards the top of this property, typical of the rugged natural beauty typical of Delaware County. Access to additional hunting, hiking, and a multitude of other outdoor recreational activities are available as the entire western border of the property is bordered by NYC public lands, followed by the Delaware Wild Forest behind that and directly across the road from this property, providing thousands of acres of protected forest and wildlife at your borders. Only a short walk or drive to the Pepacton Reservoir, with its 5743 acres of pristine water, offers multiple public boat launches (no motors) where trophy sized brown trout and small mouth bass have been taken annually, while world renowned trout fishing is only 18 miles away in Roscoe. There is a 1950's single wide trailer on the property that is in rough condition. Amenities are available close by in either Downsville, 12 miles, or Margaretville only 14 miles. All these features, surrounded by natural beauty, located down a lovely country road and just over 2 hours from NYC, this could be a perfect location for a home, hunting/fishing or family vacation getaway
