A RARE LAKE AND STREAM FRONT SANCTUARY ON THE COVETED SHORES OF THE SWINGING BRIDGE RESERVOIR. Boasting almost eight acres, this exceptional property commands over 300 feet of direct lake frontage and borders the historic stream-side remains of the Wickman Dam, a legendary water mill with heritage stone walls and over a dozen waterfalls cascading to the shoreline. Facing west, this gently sloping property enjoys ample sunlight throughout the year, and offers glorious wooded lake views. A cleared perimeter trail winds through a lush carpet of ferns, passing massive moss covered boulders shaded by birch and maple trees. Nestled within a designated bald eagle sanctuary and offering unparalleled privacy with no immediate neighbors, this idyllic property is a haven for abundant wildlife. Directly across the shimmering nine mile lake lies a vast 14,000-acre "forever wild" conservation, ensuring the highest level of privacy. Experience a front row seat into nature's grandeur, from black bears drawn to the cascading waters to bald eagles diving for fish in the state stocked reservoir. This is a place where the wonders of the natural world consistently captivate and inspire. This oversized parcel is cleared and ready to build, with driveways already installed and reputable builders and architects standing by to bring your dream to life. Enjoy close proximity to premier destinations such as the Monticello Motor Club and Bethel Woods Performing Arts Center. The Town of Forestburgh, with its rigorous building codes promoting privacy, has cultivated an elevated reputation for high value homes, exceptional design, and private family estates.
