Description
Opportunity to own the historic J T May Farm in Rensselaer with close access to all the major roads and Downtown Albany. Before all the neighborhoods, shopping centers, and highways, the area was rural farmland. The J T May Farm was a vibrant, family-owned farm in the early 1900's with a dairy which provided milk to the city of Rensselaer, as well as raising horses, pigs, and chickens. They also contributed to the local farmers' co-op with eggs and a variety of produce. In the early 1960's, future generations transitioned to "Quarter Dale Farm" where they bred, trained, and sold champion quarter horses. The horses and barns are long gone, but the land has stood the test of time. Open fields and pastures stretch out to the north, separated by hedgerows. Deer and other wildlife are plentiful and can be seen throughout. The property is entirely flat with the exception of a small parcel of woods on the north section of the property, where there are numerous mature red oaks along with maple trees. The property lays out perfectly for the discerning individual who wants a gentleman's farm or place to build a home on acreage with complete privacy. There are very few parcels of this size left in such close proximity to Albany, Rensselaer, and all major roads. Sitting in the NR (Neighborhood Residential) zone within the Town of East Greenbush, the property is prime for development. The idyllic setting and flat ground lend itself for the creation of numerous tracts that can be developed to meet the increasing need for housing in the area. Whether you are interested in reclaiming the fields to start a farm and restore the land to its former glory or build the area's next neighborhood, the possibilities are abundant. The property has 200'+/- of road frontage on 3rd Avenue Extension with another 50' access point via Hollywood Avenue on the east side of the property. Just 1.9 Miles to the Albany-Rensselaer Train Station, 3.9 miles to Downtown Albany, and just 16 miles to Albany International Airport.
