Property Description

**126 Acres of Untapped Catskills Potential | $500,000 Price Reduction | Offered at $2,290,000** 126 acres of breathtaking Catskills landscape, minutes from Hunter Mountain, and an extraordinary opportunity for investors, developers, and hospitality visionaries. Now offered at $2,290,000 following a significant $500,000 price reduction, The Ridge on 214 presents a rare chance to create something truly remarkable in one of New York's premier four-season destinations. Imagine a luxury boutique hotel tucked into the mountainside, a collection of high-end cabins overlooking the Catskills, or an immersive hospitality retreat where guests experience nature without sacrificing comfort. With its expansive acreage, natural water features, and proximity to some of the region's most popular ski destinations, this property offers an exceptional canvas for a potential resort, wellness destination, or luxury short-term rental concept, subject to all necessary municipal approvals. Located along scenic Route 214 in Lanesville, the property is approximately 10 minutes from Hunter Mountain, with Windham Mountain Club and Belleayre Mountain also within reach. This desirable location offers access to year-round recreation, from skiing and snowboarding in the winter to hiking, mountain biking, fishing, and spectacular fall foliage. The Catskills' appeal as a four-season getaway makes this an exciting location to explore a distinctive hospitality or investment concept. Beyond its investment potential, the land itself is extraordinary. A long, private approach leads into 126 acres of rolling terrain, mature forests, flowing streams, and dramatic elevation changes. Natural waterfalls, a secluded swimming hole, and breathtaking mountain views create an environment that feels completely removed from the outside world. The landscape offers countless opportunities to thoughtfully incorporate nature into a future vision, whether through secluded cabins, scenic walking trails, outdoor gathering spaces, or private residences. The property already offers a meaningful foundation for future planning. Internal roadways have been mapped throughout portions of the acreage, providing a framework for exploring access and potential expansion. Two desirable building sites have been cleared, including an elevated mountaintop location originally envisioned for a spectacular private estate or signature mountain residence. An existing home adds immediate value and flexibility, allowing a new owner to enjoy the property from day one while evaluating future possibilities. Whether used as a weekend retreat, full-time residence, or home base during the planning stages, the residence provides an established starting point. For developers and investors, envision a boutique mountain resort, a collection of private luxury cabins, an exclusive wellness retreat, or a thoughtfully designed hospitality destination combining accommodations, outdoor recreation, and the natural beauty of the Catskills. For private buyers, the property offers an equally compelling opportunity to create a secluded family compound, legacy estate, or magnificent mountain getaway. Large, contiguous parcels offering this combination of acreage, privacy, natural beauty, existing improvements, and proximity to major Catskills attractions are increasingly difficult to replicate. With a $500,000 price reduction and a new asking price of $2,290,000, The Ridge on 214 represents an exceptional opportunity to transform 126 acres of Catskills beauty into something extraordinary. The landscape is here. The opportunity is yours.
