Description
Located on a quiet gravel road in Schoharie County, this 32.8 acre property offers a mix of open hayfields, wooded corners, and valuable improvements. An old dairy barn, built in 1975, sits just off the road with power available at the property line. Although service is currently shut off, the seller has already purchased and will convey the necessary supplies to upgrade the electric service. The main dairy barn measures 70’ x 35’, with a 36’ x 27’ attached section, and is complemented by a 35’ x 15’ poultry barn built in 1980. Currently used for equipment and tractor storage, these buildings also present opportunities for workshop space or conversion into living quarters.
Behind the barn lies a large, fenced and gated vegetable garden, now overgrown but offering tremendous potential for renewal. Two expansive hayfields provide open space for farming, livestock, or recreation. The land gently slopes downhill and transitions into open hardwoods, including locust, white and red oak, maple, ash, shagbark hickory, and apple trees, with pine, birch, hemlock, and dogwood along the edges. Wildlife is abundant, with clear deer trails and frequent sightings of turkey, bear, fox, coyote, and small game.
Logging roads run throughout the property, making it easy to explore by ATV, tractor, or on foot. What sets this parcel apart is its direct border with Patria State Forest and proximity to two other nearby state lands. Together, these public tracts total over 15,300 acres of preserved land, offering endless opportunities for hunting, hiking, and outdoor recreation just steps from your back door.
This is an ideal property for someone seeking a private getaway, hunting retreat, or a small homestead project. The combination of barns, fields, garden space, and direct access to thousands of acres of state forestland makes it a rare find in today’s market.
Please note: the seller requires all showings to be scheduled with an agent or representative present.
