42.2 acres in Delaware County, NY

This property, set in the stunning and bucolic Mountain Brook valley in vibrant Bovina, NY, presents an incredible opportunity for those with an eye for investment and potential. The land itself is 42.2 acres of rolling western Catskills serenity; a lengthy and level meadow runs along an extended portion of road frontage with the Mountain Brook as the backdrop, and then broadens out into an inviting lawn area with a pleasant pond and the home site, continues up into former agricultural land offering lush meadows and distant views, and finally transitions into fern-filled upland forest with mature mixed deciduous trees, stone walls and natural rock features throughout. The home is in need of some considered updating, is selling completely 'as-is', and will be a massive clean-out project. However, it offers incredible potential with 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, an open concept living and dining area, full and tall basement space - and a whole half of the home was originally designed to be a separate residential unit, and could become an attached apartment for guest use, or remain as storage and workshop space. With rising hills all around, the setting here is truly stunning. Located on a town-maintained dead-end road, the house has NYSEG electric and fiber phone lines in place for high speed internet, is within the Delhi School District, and is under 20 minutes to thriving regional towns such as Andes, Margaretville, and Delhi, and is just over 2.5 hours from metro NY. If you are looking to develop an existing home with ample space and country surroundings, have been seeking a location for a homestead or hobby farm, or have an appetite for a clean-out and restoration project for investment purposes, this property merits your attention.
