It's rare to come across improved land where the long, often unglamorous work of preparing to build has already been done.
Fourteen surveyed acres of mature and wonderfully wild timber situate Shandelee Forest at the base of the Catskill Park. This dreamscape is threaded with historic walking paths, rock formations, fern fields, and set in the wooded hills just outside Livingston Manor.
The engineer-approved homesite has been cleared, with a new private road cut in and electric run to the driveway.
A new well and new septic system suitable for a four bedroom home are already installed.
Architectural plans by Material Design Build, drawn specifically for the site, accompany the land, making this a starting point, or a finished one, depending on your desires.
A few minutes’ walk down quiet paths brings you to Shandelee Lake, a non-motorboat lake at the heart of the neighborhood, which provides a beautiful view to share with a coffee or your post-run stretch.
The property sits in the forested hills just minutes beyond town, close enough to pop down for coffee, far enough that the only sound at night is the forest.
The nearby Beaverkill and the Willowemoc rivers are widely considered the birthplace of American fly fishing.
Livingston Manor is one of the most quietly coveted villages in the Western Catskills, with a few walkable blocks that hold design shops, cafes, a charming general store, toy store, gear shop, wine bar, even a world-class art gallery and more. Two and a half hours from the George Washington Bridge places the town firmly within weekend reach of New York City, while remaining unmistakably its own magical corner of the world.
