House for sale in South Kortright, United States
7 buildings on 22+ acres: A White carriage house, a Stone building, a Carpentry workshop (with a blacksmith shop), a stable and stable, the Main house, a Guest house and a School. As well as a spring house and a root cellar. Infrastructure: The first four listed buildings have been fully commissioned by the current owner, all four buildings are supplied with water/electricity and heat. Water: The property includes a pond, a 120-foot well, water rights through the Spring House, access to neighboring water rights and part of the west branch of the Delaware River (the property boundary runs to the far bank of the river, narrow at the point bordering the land).
The property is located in the New York City catchment area; a new septic tank was installed in May 2023 free of charge for the owner. Moreover, since this area is located in a river valley, there has never been time, even during a drought, for water to be unavailable. (But this does not apply to several farms/lands in the area; when the dry season comes, unpredictable, of course, and the farms dry up, it's a nightmare; this has never happened here.) Additional details of the land plot: An orchard, pastures, three paddocks, a knot garden, a vegetable garden. The owner can attest and notarize that no pesticides have been used on the land for 22+ years: all organic. Zoning: Unlimited: zoned for commercial and residential development. Cannabis needs additional permits, and other local businesses have received permits. Annual taxes: $14,831.16 (Real estate: $9957.72; School: $4,873.44.) Commercial access: Two access roads to the property; parking (field behind the woodworking shop where trucks are loaded and driven out); The capacity of the White Carriage House reaches 350 people when used for weddings/events. The property is located directly on County Hwy 18, which is cleared in inclement weather, which provides easy access/check-out 24/7 for business vehicles all year round. The hotel is located directly opposite state Route 10, again with easy transport access. History: The first settler J.McLean was a copper magnate, and the construction of the building reflects wealth: the grandeur of the White Carriage House, the stability of the Stone Building (originally it was a family-owned private railroad depot for tracks that are now used as a 21-mile scenic Catskill trail, some of which cross this property; the owner has the right of alienation of the farm for cattle or trucks); the dimensions of the rooms in the Main House, the rack-and-beam structure of the Stables and Stables. And the stone wall that surrounds most of the property, one of the few in the area still intact, is a testament to the construction and care devoted to the estate.
