About this land

Situated in the northern Adirondack Mountains, where scenic peaks give way to picturesque farms, the Dannemora Dream property is 167 acres of secluded forestland ideal for a wide range of recreational pursuits, including whitetail, grouse, and woodcock previous landowner created 3 separate clearcuts, each ~7 acres. The clearcuts are filling in with abundant vegetation, including multiple tree species and raspberry/blackberry. While the clearcuts provide great hunting opportunities for whitetail, grouse, and woodcock, they also serve as habitat for a variety of other wildlife species, such as rabbits and hares, moose, and other bird species. The remainder of the Dannemora Dream property contains more mature timber, of maple, ash, and other mixed hardwoods, plus a small, overgrown apple orchard near the front of the property. Several locations would be suitable for food plots, given the soil quality. This property does not lack for wildlife cover; there is abundant game sign between the clearcuts and the more mature timber. Included with the property are 3 hunting blinds, 2 ladder stands, and a fifth-wheel camper. 110 of the 167 acres is under a carbon sequestration program with Family Forest Carbon, the purpose of which is to encourage landowners to allow their woodlands to grow, mature, and sequester atmospheric carbon. The offsets generated by the program are sold on the carbon market for purchase by carbon-polluting industries. This property has been in the program for 1 year, with 19 years remaining on the contract. Total payments over the life of the contract are $33,261, with payments to the landowner annually in percentage of the whole. These payments may pay the yearly property taxes in part or full (% varies by year). The carbon contract prohibits land conversion or timber removals (save for a small amount of cordwood for personal use) on the 110 acres. The Carbon program does not prohibit recreation such as hunting, and hiking on the enrolled acreage. The Dannemora Dream property is located among rural homes, private forestland, and farms. It is close to thousands of acres of State Land, including the Chazy Highlands Wild Forest, Spring Brook State Forest, and Lewis Preserve Wildlife Management Area. All these areas have public access that allows for hunting and fishing, among other recreational pursuits.This property is near many Adirondack region attractions. It is just over an hour from the Olympic Village of Lake Placid and the Adirondack High Peaks, a short drive from Lake Champlain, and just minutes from publicly-accessible Chazy & Upper Chateaugay Lakes. There are also many trout fisheries nearby, including the Great Chazy, Salmon, Chateaugay, and Saranac Rivers. The Dannemora Dream property is just 1/2 hour from Plattsburgh International Airport and 11/2 hours from Trudeau International Airport. The City of Plattsburgh has all the amenities and box stores, as well as car dealerships, auto repair facilities, and more.

    Questions to ask before you buy

    Good questions for any home near the slopes.

    1. 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.
    2. 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.
    3. 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.
    4. 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.
    5. 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.
    6. 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.
