Property Description

This remarkable 86-acre property captures the very best of Catskill country living. With more than 80% of the land wooded, it offers exceptional space for hunting, hiking, recreation, and quiet exploration, with varied terrain and natural habitat that support an abundance of wildlife throughout the seasons. Begin in an open alluvial meadow along year-round Carrs Creek, where stone riffles create a natural crossing to the upper meadow and thicket. This sheltered landscape provides ideal cover for game and adds to the property’s rich ecological character. At the south end of the thicket, old stone walls mark the entrance to the upper woodlot, while deeper into the property, an industrial-era railroad bed runs for more than 2,000 feet, creating a distinctive and practical trail corridor through the land. Branching access points along the rail bed make it easy to enjoy the property from multiple vantage points. Near the center of this striking pathway, a seasonal stream passes beneath a small stone-framed trestle bridge, adding another memorable feature to the setting. Follow the trails uphill and you’ll find towering pines, strong hardwoods, and impressive rock outcroppings, with valley views that reveal themselves through the trees. Just 8 miles from Sidney, 10 miles from Oneonta, and 15 miles from Delhi, this property offers the privacy of a true retreat without sacrificing convenience. And at only 125 miles from New York City, it’s close enough for weekend escapes yet far enough to feel like a world of its own. GPS: 1429 Franklin Depot Rd.
