About this land
Rarely does a property combine privacy, natural beauty and convenience as well as this 30-acre tract in Chester, New York. Located on a year-round town road, the land offers easy access while maintaining the peaceful feeling of a true Adirondack forest retreat. Several elevated APA-approved building sites are scattered throughout the property, offering ideal locations for an off-grid cabin or hunting camp. Mature hardwood forests blanket the land with maple, birch, oak, beech, and ash, while a picturesque stream meanders through the woods. Established logging trails and an interior, seasonal two-wheel-drive road provide easy access throughout the acreage, creating excellent opportunities for hiking, hunting, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the property's location within the Adirondack Park, surrounded by endless opportunities for recreation. The Hudson River is nearby for paddling, fishing and rafting, while Gore Mountain's renowned skiing and mountain biking are only 12 minutes away. North Creek is just down the road for shopping and dining, and Lake George is within easy driving distance for boating and lakeside entertainment. Only 1 1/2 hours to Albany, less than 3 hours from Syracuse and 4 1/2 hours to New York City. Financing available.

Questions to ask before you buy
Good questions for any home near the slopes.
- How is the property reached in winter, and who plows the road and driveway?A short straight-line distance can still mean a long or seasonal drive. Private roads, gates and mountain passes all shape winter access.
- Is there documented ski access from the property (trail, easement, lift), and does it transfer to a buyer?Rights to cross neighboring land or use a lift come from recorded easements and agreements, so a ski-in or ski-out description is where the question starts.
- Are there association, resort or club fees, and what do they cover?Some ski-area communities charge fees that cover only certain amenities, so ask what lift tickets, passes and services are included.
- Are there rules on renting the home short-term or long-term?Local ordinances, association covenants and deed restrictions all set rental rules, and they differ from place to place.
- What do heating, snow removal, winterization and utilities cost over a season?Ownership costs in snow country often run higher than the mortgage estimate suggests.
- For land: is there legal year-round access, and what utilities, septic and building rules apply?Seasonal roads and steep lots can limit what can be built and when it can be reached.
