Brodhead Retreat: West Shokan, NY
About The Property
Nestled off of a super quiet, country road sits this nearly 18 acre parcel in the low-tax town of Olive. Adjacent along one side to protected “forever wild” NYC DEP land, and access to a seasonal stream fully within the property, are only two of the many perks to this parcel. The Ashokan Reservoir which is only .7 walkable miles down the road, could be visible from the parcel with significant clearing. A drilled well with hand pump is functional and ready to use, right next to the shed which is prime to hold your building materials. Electric is available at the entrance of the lot. Brodhead Rd has the potential to host your dream home above the reservoir - smattered with stone walls, large evergreens, ferns, and young foliage - with the ultimate privacy of being a “land locked” parcel tucked far off the road, and accessible via a Right of Way.
1hr 40mins from the George Washington Bridge, and 2hr from the Kosciuszko Bridge, this is the perfect weekend property or potential forever home with quick access to the city.
Brodhead Rd is a short drive to Marty’s Mercantile, The Ashokan Rail Trail, and the Town of Olive Lester S Davis Park (5 mins). Grab brunch at the Phoenicia Diner (18 mins), or go for a dip at Peekamoose Blue Hole and hike in the Sundown Wild Forest (20 mins) via Watson Hollow Road. Hudson Valley hotspots like Westwind Orchard, Arrowood Brewery, and StoneHill’s Farmhouse (24 mins) are an easy trip, while your Woodstock favorites like SILVIA, Good Night, and Bread Alone (24 mins) are an easy and beautiful drive over the reservoir.
