Outdoor enthusiasts, looking for a property with ‘off the beaten path’ characteristics to accommodate a wide range of recreational needs, will love this property and region! Imagine owning one hundred and twenty-one acres of Northern Hardwood Forestland and a half mile of shoreline on a renowned trout stream, where one can breathe fresh country air, fish and swim in a cool, clear stream and mingle with untamed wilderness right outside your door. The property’s 2 story, ~1,900 sf structure has the potential for seasonal, or year ‘round use, with sufficient space for everyone in the family, or group. The three-bedroom, single bath, house with partial basement is situated just over a knoll from adjacent County Route 17. The wood sided, asphalt-shingled roof, structure was built in 1985. Much of the original roofing has been covered with painted steel. A portion of the house was built upon a concrete block foundation resulting in a partial basement, with outdoor access on the backside of the house under the deck. The remainder was built on a slab. A new 200-amp electric service was installed along the driveway this summer. Underground lines run from the pedestal-mounted meter to a service entrance panel in the basement. Appliances in the basement, yet to be tested due to the house being vacant, are; an electric hot water tank, forced air furnace, and well water plumbing and pressure tank. The water source is a dug well, ~150’ north of the house. The single bay, open garage and wood shed are additions found on the east side of the house. Communication utilities are available roadside. There has not been any tree harvesting on the property for decades. Boundary evidence is present is; old barb wire, stone, paint, blazes, signs and iron posts. (See the Property Inspection Map with this listing). The gem of the property, Plumb Brook, is a classified, stocked, trout stream. The property lies outside of, but within a few miles of the Adirondack State Park, within 1-1/2 hour drive of the High Peaks, and ~40 minutes from the St. Lawrence River, the Ogdensburg International Airport and Canada. It may be considered a peaceful haven or wilderness retreat.
