Located in the rolling countryside of Albany County, this 59.5 acre property on Roney Road is an ideal opportunity for anyone dreaming of their own private hunting retreat.

The property sits along Roney Road, a seasonal, limited-use gravel road maintained from April through November. While no utilities are located directly in front of the property, electric service is available just a tenth of a mile down the road. The land is characterized by a diverse mix of hardwoods and softwoods, maple, oak, cherry, birch, ash, pine, and beech, creating excellent cover and a thriving habitat for deer, turkey, and even bear. A seasonal creek bed meanders through the land, further enhancing wildlife activity and providing natural beauty. The front portion of the property features gently sloping ground with dense brush along the roadside, giving way to rolling terrain that slopes upward toward the center. An ATV trail leads conveniently into the property across from 348 Roney Road, offering easy recreational access. An old dirt road runs along the right edge of the land, adding utility and character to the tract. Toward the rear, large, marketable oaks dominate the forest canopy, offering both immediate and future timber value. In the upper right corner, a wide open field presents the perfect location for a food plot and hunting stand location. Whether you envision a personal hunting camp, a recreational getaway, or simply a long-term land investment, this property offers outstanding potential. Its combination of varied terrain, timber resources, creek bed, ATV access, and abundant wildlife makes it a true hunting paradise. And with Rensselaerville State Forest within walking distance, you'll have nearly endless additional opportunities to explore, hunt, and enjoy the outdoors. This is your chance to own a sizable piece of upstate New York's outdoors, where privacy, recreation, and natural beauty come together.
