Rip’s Rest: Cairo, NY

About The Property

This beautiful cleared hillside lot is ready for your dream home. Up a long, private driveway, find just over 5 acres of peaceful, quiet meadow and a babbling stream surrounded by mature forest in the centrally located town of Cairo. The cleared meadow has seasonal mountain views and so much sunlight, but the surrounding woods make for a lovely and private site. Much of the land prep is already done making for a seamless construction process.

The gently sloping lot has an improved crushed stone driveway, and a drainage was added to protect the driveway during the current owner’s tenure. The current owners also graded a parking area at the top of the driveway, though there are multiple potential build sites that would make for a lovely home setting. A tiny home is already in place, constructed with a steel frame on a custom built reinforced trailer. Though currently unfinished, this could be finished as a luxury glamping site, or used as a storage unit during or after home construction.

The lot is conveniently accessible from Route 23, but on a quiet dead end street, making for a truly peaceful mountain getaway. Outdoor recreation and great Upstate amenities are nearby. Windham Mountain Club is just 15 minutes away, and Hunter Mountain is 23 minutes. Cairo has a shopping center with Hannaford grocery store and other conveniences, but Catskill is under 20 minutes away with its great dining options, breweries, and the Avalon Lounge for live music and nightlife. Hudson’s shopping and dining are under 30 minutes from the lot.
