Adirondack Lots for Sale (owner financing and it is deal time!)

 

 

 

This time I will start with the prices because I have dropped them huge amounts.  Lot 1 is priced at $39,500; Lot 3 is now $49,500.  I hope someone will see the values here and grab them.  I am willing to finance at 7% with fifty percent down for thirty years (no early payoff penalty).

The views are superb.  The forest is thick and wonderfully aromatic.  I would really like to make a deal soon.  Money magazine, in the latest issue (April) says that this is the best time to build.  They say lot prices are down twenty percent (these were originally appraised and listed at $79,000 each), building material prices are way down (see issue for percentages) due to lower demand, and contractors are available and not charging premiums.

From this land you can watch and feel mother nature!  You can watch storms go by or see how the sun dapples the far ridges.  During fall there is a color bonanza.  Here you can truly feel a part of nature.  It is wonderful to simply be outdoors.  More Photos.  You have to be there to really experience the view and feeling.  The photos are nice but they really don't capture the feeling of seeing the entire view at once.  (Each photo is only a piece of the view.)

The lots are about six miles from I-87, The Northway Exit 26.  This is about four hours from New York City and an hour and a half from Albany.  The friendly town has a Beach Park, tennis courts, basketball, hockey rink and cross country ski trails.  There is a major ski area about eight miles away (Gore Mountain) and a larger lake about six miles away (Schroon Lake).  There is great canoeing and hiking around town.

The lots are set up for maximum privacy from each home site.  There is sixty feet of vegetation barrier required between each home site (not required on the lot edges facing outward).  Heavy forest exists in these areas.  The lots have good privacy - however they are not isolated.  The land behind the home sites is aromatically wooded.  There is about an acre of pretty level woods included in the home site.  So there is room for a nice barn, pool, or whatever you want back there.

The driveways are roughed in.  This means that they are now dirt roads that will work best with four wheel drive vehicles.  (Last visit I was able to drive my two wheel drive Ford in to the Lot #3 homesite.) 

These lots really feel a part of the Adirondack Mountains.  You can feel the Adirondack spirit and sense of adventure as you drive in.  The driveways have some steeper sections. You will want to own a four wheel drive vehicle.  (When I lived in the Adirondacks full time I found it best to have four wheel drive with four studded snow tires in the winter months.)  You may want to pave the driveways.  That costs about double the price of rocking the driveways.  Then you have the best surface though.  The home sites are six hundred feet from the road.  These lots will appeal to folks who really like the outdoors.  The lots are very Adirondacky (not city-like).

Lot 3 has a town water curb stop (a water line) installed.  There is a chance that the water line from lot 3 could be brought to all homesites and shared (cost and water).  This would be up to the buyer of lot 3.  The land survey is below. 

This year Gore Mountain Ski Area (large and eight miles away) has begun to improve the historic North Creek Ski Bowl (adding a new triple chairlift, snowmaking and night skiing) on the outside of the downtown area of North Creek.  These improvements should be very good for the entire area.  There is a lot more work on the drawing board.  The North Creek Ski Train sounds like it is going to be a reality again soon too.

White water rafting is also big on the Hudson River.  Mountain biking and gondola rides are done on Gore Mountain during the summer season.  My favorite is just driving around this entire beautiful area taking photos.

This land is in the town Winslow Homer painted many of his famous Adirondack landscapes while a member of the North Woods Club.  The Club is still here.  Most all of the natural beauty is still around too.

These parcels are quite special.  There are wonderful forest aromas.  This is a wonderful area to live a significant portion of your life.  The Adirondack Park is quite a novel place.  It has a beauty and charm that really seems to have carried over from the past. 

 

 

Prices-

Lots #1 (2.8 acres) $39,500.  I have lowered this lot because the view is not quite as panoramic.  It is a great view but not as wide ranging and vista-like as Lot #3 (because the adjacent neighboring lot still has too many trees).

Lot 3  (2.8 acres)  $49,500. 

Either lot can be financed with fifty percent down at 7% for thirty years (no early payoff penalty)

 

These lots are really interesting!  I would really like to see more sales happen soon.  I have lowered the price twice on Lot #1 from the original $79,000 level recommended by a Realtor.  Lot #3 has also been lowered twice from the original price.  Give me a call, take a look, and let's see what we can work out.  I don't think there are too many views like these available.  Thanks for the interest!  Let's make a deal.  Please go take a look at the lots and bring a cash offer.

 

Please call (540) 297-9512 for more info or to see the lots.  Thank you!

January's Money Magazine says some of the very best real estate deals can be found now in the Adirondacks!
