Description

Wild, remote 91-acre forested property in the Catskill foothills directly adjoining 1,137 acres of NY State Forest. A two-story hunting cabin with bunks and a wood stove sits on the property, along with over two miles of ATV and hiking trails and a natural spring. The land is exceptionally private and accessible year-round. The timber stands are high quality — acorn-laden Red Oak and Sugar Maple approaching harvestable maturity. A 5-year forest management plan was recently completed, documenting the full timber inventory and sustainable harvest strategy. This is a turn-key asset for a timber investor or conservation buyer. The property is enrolled in NY's 480-a Forest Tax Law program, which significantly reduces annual property taxes. Forest Management Plan was updated in 2026. Great hunting — deer, turkey, and small game throughout. OFF-GRID HOME SITE POTENTIAL: For buyers looking to escape the grid entirely, this property offers serious potential as a private off-grid homestead. The existing natural spring provides a reliable water source. The deep forest cover, extreme privacy, and sheer acreage create a buffer from the outside world that is nearly impossible to find at this price point in the Northeast. The existing cabin gives you a livable structure from day one while you plan and build. With over 91 acres to work with, there is ample room for a solar array, a large garden, animals, outbuildings, and whatever self-sufficient life you have in mind — all while sitting on the edge of over 1,100 acres of forever-wild state land that will never be developed. HIGHLIGHTS: - 91 acres total, contiguous parcel - Directly borders 1,137 acres of NY State Forest - 1,408 sq ft two-story cabin, and wood stove - 2+ miles of ATV and hiking trails - Natural spring on property — key resource for off-grid living - Updated 5-year forest management plan in place - Enrolled in NY 480-a forest tax exemption program - High-quality Red Oak and Sugar Maple timber stands IDEAL FOR: Off-grid homesteaders, hunting clubs, timber investors, conservation buyers, 1031 exchange, recreational retreat Town of Conesville, Schoharie County, NY
