About this property

A fisherman's paradise with extremely private frontage along the West Branch. Cold and clear 2,500' West Branch Delaware River frontage and 2 homes for sale in Upstate NY. The West Branch, famously known for good Trout fly fishing, gently flows past this gentle, flat land, which is ideal for camping, organic farming or keeping animals. One home is a nice, 3 bed 2 bath updated manufactured home and the other is an older farmhouse. Over 18 acres per tax map. Property also contains a cold water creek and a couple of trailer rental lots. Not often do you find such long, private frontage on this river.

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.
