3 acre Independence River Building Lot for Sale, Watson NY!

Ready to Build with Driveway, Well, Survey and Septic Design!

This 3-acre property is located on the Independence River in the town of Watson NY. It is all set up for a new build; it offers a driveway that leads to a cleared riverfront building site that is one of a kind. The building site sits high on the riverbank, surrounded by huge white pine trees, and offers great views up and down the river. The seller has already done the site prep; there is a drilled well, he has performed a perk test, and has had an engineered, site-specific septic design prepared.  There is a walking path that leads to a level site that sits along the edge of the river, this would be the perfect place for a riverside gazebo. Access to the lot is easy as it’s located on a paved town road that is maintained year-round. The Otter Creek Horse Trails are right down the road from this property within minutes you could be at the trailhead. There are thousands of acres of NY State lands just down the road and Adirondack wilderness areas are within minutes too.

The lot offers the following features:

• 250 feet of Road Frontage.
• 314 feet of River frontage.
• New crushed stone driveway.
• Survey with Flood plain setback marked on site.

This property is a true Gem and is sure to be the slate for many great memories. Bring your fly rod and catch trout, lay on the rocks, swim in the pools, or enjoy listening to the rushing mountain water roll over and around the large boulders. The Independence River is still one of the few “WILD” rivers in the Adirondacks and one of the most scenic treasures in NY State!
