Property Description
This one-of-a-kind property includes twenty-seven acres of breathtaking land, a rare Dutch-style dairy barn and silo, and, most magnificent of all, the gorgeous Aspen Lake that reflects the surrounding natural beauty with stunning clarity.Formerly the site of a top producing dairy farm, this property is now a stunning natural oasis from the cares of life. A casual 2.25 hour drive from NYC, much of which runs through the scenic Catskills, will bring you to this special location. Measured by distance this property is not far from urban centers, but if measured by tranquility it is another world entirely. Nestled into a gentle valley, the property is bordered by Pines Brook on one side and Pines Brook Road on the other, a quiet country road well-maintained by the town of Walton, allowing for easy access year-round.As one approaches from the south, there are two easy-access spots to the property, one on the south end of the lake and one on the north end near the majestic barn and silo. There is a beautiful half-mile trail that meanders around the lake, providing breathtaking vantage points from all sides with beautiful views in the foreground and background. The quaking aspen trees, from which the lake gains its name, act as a natural privacy breaker along the east side. Additionally, there are spruce trees, birches, maples, and oaks on the property -- a beautiful blend of deciduous and evergreens that attract abundant wildlife throughout the year.The 10+ acre lake provides additional habitats for all kinds of wildlife including bass, trout, ducks, geese, songbirds, and deer.Potentially a great fit for entrepreneurs looking for a destination property to establish as a glamping or short-term rental property. It features 10+ sites that would be suitable for camps or cabins while still providing adequate privacy and lake views. It features everything folks look for in a getaway, including spring water that runs from the adjoining property to the barn via a deeded water supply. Additionally, the multi-level barn could be renovated to provide additional living space, a general shower and bathroom area for camping guests, or to be used as a stunning wedding venue. The silo is in very good condition and could be up-cycled into a unique turret-like living space with incredible views down the valley.Truly one of the most unique properties in the Catskills, Aspen Lake, and its surrounding land beckons to anyone who loves the natural world, and anyone whose vision might open up this beauty to the enjoyment of one or many.Seller financing possible. Updated survey available.
