Enjoy easy access to these gorgeous 37.5 acres with multiple options for where you'd like to build your home. A beautiful, forested land with 928 feet of road frontage on quiet High Falls Rd in the Quarryville area of the Town of Saugerties. A mile and a half from the great hamlet of High Falls which it was named after. The entire front of the property is a beautiful pine forest, with stone remnants of small cottages used by Quarrymen in the 1800's. A distinct feature is a huge glacial erratic, a glacial stone that travelled from the top of the Catskill Mountains and was gently deposited intact to the edge of a scenic cliff. This is a gorgeous spot to build a home amongst the thousands of ferns and pines, where the erratic is at the cliff with a seasonal stream on its feet. Walking through this property you are lost in time. The land is varied, most of the rear is an oak forest sloping gently upwards. It is on soil declared by NYS as Farmland of Statewide Importance. In the 1800's the land was heavily used by the Quarrymen who dug Quarry Holes for the famous Bluestone that Quarryville is known for. The Bluestone was taken out by horse and wagon to boats waiting in the Hudson River and shipped to New York City for sidewalks and buildings across America. Walking the property, you can still see the wagon wheel marks today, especially in the rear of the land by the big Duck Pond. There are a few Quarry holes, stone piles scattered in the rear, vestiges of life long age in this very private bucolic world. There are seasonal views of the extremely close Catskill Mountain range from North Lake to Woodstock when the leaves are off the trees. Hunter Mountain is 16 miles away. On the southern end this amazing land has another region where a small stream zig zags and is home to many varieties of birds, egrets, blue heron, and of course, ducks. Zoned moderate density residential district with a 1-acre minimum lot size. This land is perfectly situated near much of what makes this area so special. Twelve minutes from the Village of Saugerties, twenty minutes form the Village of Woodstock, 23 minutes from the City of Kingston and two hours and ten minutes from New York City. Enter 423 High Falls Road into the GPS, the land is across the street between the signs, park by the sign.
