191 Mossybrook Rd High Falls, NY 12440

PRIME 12.5 ACRES IN HISTORIC HIGH FALLS, COTTAGE & RED BARN. Rare country setting with the perfect, and I mean perfect, blend of mature woods and serene open and airy meadows. An absolutely beautiful property practically minutes from the Mohonk Preserve, and a short scenic drive to Clove Valley Road's Coxing Trailhead, Gunks climbing and hiking, local swimming holes and rail trails, hotspots like New Paltz, Minnewaska State Park, Rosendale, Stone Ridge, and still very to accessible to Kingston. Literally one of the most desirable locations Ulster County has to offer. The land is so prime offering multiple magnificent building sites, ones that can take advantage of the sunny meadow but also the elevated tree house in the woods feel. Shawangunk cliff views achievable with some clearing. Hike to the far back of the property to see the winding stream, mature hardwoods, and some chunky granite stones at the base of the cliff. This is the land everyone wants but is often so hard to find, having the best of the open meadows coupled with a preserve like forest. It's really hard to find land of this quality and it doesn't come around that often. But that's just the land. There's also an old two story cottage ideal for the right person who is handy or needs a place to live on the land while planning to build the dream home. House is rough around the edges, needs some attention and TLC, but the bones seem to be fairly solid for its age. Recent updates to the home include a new roof and gutters and 100 amp electrical service in 2002, replacement windows throughout in 2002, new water heater in 2003, bathroom updated a little in 2001 with new tub and sink, well pump replaced in 1999, and the septic was pumped out in 2012. The heating system is also in good working order and has been serviced regularly. So much potential inside and out. This can be the starter cottage that becomes the bonus rental property or guest house after you build your new home deeper into the property off the road. There is significant road frontage that may provide interesting subdivision opportunities. Excellent for horses but even better for farming. Maybe create your own local CSA here or perhaps an art studio in the meadow overlooking the herds of deer coming up the hill from the stream. Did you say solar? Near perfect eastern and southeastern exposure for virtually year round sun where you need it. If you're into anything sustainable when it comes to building you'll be happy to hear this property seems to have an abundance of chunky granite stones straight from the Gunks themselves that could be used in so many ways. The back woods seems very mature and the large straight trees can be milled and used for framing. Begin building a home from the ground up with raw materials harvested straight from the land. Upstate country life in the Hudson Valley at its finest. Sought after location. Begin your new chapter, here.
