Buildable Catskills land with meadow, stream, and completed perc test — ready for a cabin, weekend retreat, or investment.
This unique offering includes two adjacent parcels totaling 8.36 acres located along Mayfly Lane in Jefferson, NY.
The property features a 3-acre meadow parcel with partial clearing (primary build site) and a 5.36-acre wooded parcel with a natural stream corridor (additional potential build site), creating a scenic and private setting.
A percolation test completed in May 2024 indicates strong soil conditions for future construction.
