Located on a peaceful, lightly-traveled town-maintained road, this 6.65+/- acre parcel in the heart of Roxbury offers an exceptional opportunity to own a piece of the Catskills. The land is graced with light woods, charming old stone walls, and seasonal mountain views when the leaves fall—making it a perfect setting for your upstate dreams.
At the front of the property, an expansive mostly level area offers an ideal potential building site, with electric available along the road. The land then terraces down to a lower level, where you'll find natural springs—a peaceful setting with the potential for a future pond. Beyond that, dry, wooded terrain provides privacy, beauty, and room to roam. At the rear of the parcel, enjoy the calming sound of a stream on the neighboring parcel – a sound which adds to this property's tranquil atmosphere.
One of the most valuable features of this location is its close access to over 900 acres of NYC Watershed land (which then leads into state land), open to the public for light recreation such as hiking, hunting, birdwatching, and nature walks. This remarkable benefit gives you a massive natural playground right at your doorstep—without the responsibility of ownership.
All this just minutes from Bearpen Mountain Sports, local hiking opportunities, Belleayre Ski Center, and the shops and dining of Main Street Roxbury.
Whether you envision a rustic cabin, a private retreat, or a weekend escape, this property delivers natural charm, practical convenience, and access to some of the best recreational land in the region.
