Description

Located along Fox Creek Road (County Route 352) in the quiet countryside of Albany County, this 5.7± acre vacant land parcel offers an excellent opportunity for buyers searching for a manageable and buildable country homesite in a peaceful rural setting. Positioned in the Medusa / Preston Hollow area and surrounded by rolling countryside, nearby state land, and recreational opportunities, the property combines road frontage, privacy, natural features, and accessibility into a strong small-acreage offering.

The parcel features approximately 345± feet of frontage along Fox Creek Road, providing direct and convenient access from a well-maintained county road. Unlike many smaller vacant land parcels that can feel restricted or difficult to utilize, this property offers a very functional layout with mostly flat to gently inclining terrain that would lend itself well to future residential development pending successful perc testing and board of health approval.

The property consists primarily of wooded acreage, with a mix of deciduous and coniferous forests, creating a quiet, natural setting while still maintaining usability throughout much of the land. A small brushy opening near the road frontage creates a natural transition into the woods and could serve as a future homesite location or clearing area. A small stream also runs through a corner section of the property, adding additional natural character and wildlife appeal.

Wildlife activity has been observed throughout the property, including whitetail deer sign, and the surrounding rural landscape of woods, fields, and nearby agricultural ground contributes to the overall habitat quality within the area. For buyers looking to enjoy both country living and outdoor recreation, the property offers an attractive balance between buildability and recreational appeal.

Electric is available at the road, helping simplify future development possibilities. The property is believed to be buildable pending perc testing and local approvals, making it a strong option for anyone looking to build a full-time residence, seasonal getaway, or long-term investment property in a desirable rural location.

Another major advantage of this property is its location. The parcel is conveniently situated near County Route 145, providing excellent access to surrounding communities and regional destinations while still maintaining the quiet feel of the countryside. Nearby towns include Preston Hollow, Middleburgh, Durham, and Greenville, while Albany, Hudson, and other Capital Region destinations remain within reasonable driving distance.

Outdoor recreation opportunities throughout the area are abundant. The property is located near Rensselaerville State Forest and numerous additional state land areas offering hiking, hunting, and recreational access. Fishing opportunities along Catskill Creek and nearby waterways also add to the appeal of the location. For winter recreation and four-season tourism, Windham Mountain Ski Area is located within driving distance.

For buyers searching for an affordable and manageable country building lot with road frontage, recreational appeal, and strong access to surrounding amenities, this Albany County property presents an excellent opportunity to own and build in a desirable Upstate New York setting.
