Property Description

Thorpe Hill Forest is an attractive 68+/- acre land investment opportunity with a desirable combination of privacy and seclusion including nearby access to suburban amenities. Located in central New York along the western edge of the Catskills on the northern border of Delaware County, the property is within view of Sidney, New York, and just a moments’ drive from the charming village. Situated near the I-88 and Route 8 interchange, access is gained at the end of Thorpe Road where a right-of-way leads through neighboring forestland adding to the privacy of the tract. Ownership in the immediate area consists of a mix of mid-sized, privately owned woodlots as well as rural residential parcels. At 1,600+/- feet in elevation, the ridge top is flat to rolling, giving way to a north-facing slope that steepens towards the north boundary. This configuration allows for uninterrupted views of Sidney, New York, the Susquehanna River, and the area’s rolling landscape. A recent harvest has opened the woods into a park-like setting, retaining a healthy mix of tree species including hemlock, white pine, various oaks, and both red maple and sugar maple. The property’s location offers an abundance of opportunities. Proximity to I-88 provides access northeast and southwest to Albany (2 hours) and Binghamton (40 minutes), respectively. The Catskills provide over a quarter million acres of forest with copious opportunities for recreational pursuits including hiking, camping, fishing, horseback riding, and skiing. Sidney, New York, as mentioned, supports a small community of 3,000+, typical of upstate New York villages, adding an element of small-town charisma to the serenity of land ownership. Alongside big-box stores, industrial employment, and a municipal airport, local activities include a golf course, an entertaining main street, and ample smallmouth bass fishing in the Susquehanna.
