EXCLUSIVE... Just a perfect property.... and very nearly the last, large, original piece of land in Bovina... 240 acres, untouched, unencumbered by easement, and perfectly sited, enveloping the end of a blissfully bucolic farm road in Bovina. This is one of those rare properties where the massive expanse of sky is all yours - big, big sky - and all the land that you can see, and all the privacy you can imagine, is yours as well. There are no other properties in sight and never will be. Hiking this land gives you the rare primal communion with just you and the "good earth" and a profound feeling of never wanting to leave... photographing it was a joy and a gift.
Long range, majestic views both south and north are available from several possible building sites. And rarer still, is the combination of both high meadows with sweeping views and deep valleys with stream and forest. The dead-end, town-maintained road leads to the property via extensive road frontage on both sides, through a canopy of towering maples and pine.
The Parsons Farm has been vacant for over 30 years and its arrival to the market, long-awaited and much anticipated. The classic, original Bovina farmhouse remains for the preservationist who would love the challenge of bringing its historic past back to life. Field and forests, gullies and mountainside, with complete privacy, adjoin 1100 acres of NYS land.
The possibility exists of subdividing approximately 50 acres off the parcel for resale, which would in no way affect the property's unique privacy or building possibilities and would provide yet another equally stunning parcel with exceptional views and seclusion. A preservation easement to NYC DEP is another potential revenue.
Bovina is an exceptional town in the Catskills, prized for its beauty... "the town that time forgot". Combined with large private acreage and a dead-end road location, it just doesn't get better than this... and the opportunity to purchase tracks of this size is becoming a memory of the past. Please enjoy the "additional photos", they speak better than I can of the beauty of this property...
Approximately 2.5 hours from the George Washington Bridge.
