About this land

This 72.43± acre tract on Podpadic Road in Richmondville offers a strong combination of seclusion, access, and habitat, setting up as a highly functional hunting and recreational property with long-term upside. Located on a quiet, seasonal gravel road, the property features approximately 5,017± feet of road frontage spanning multiple access points, including frontage on Podpadic Road and Harroway Road. An established cut-in leads to an old logging road, providing a solid foundation for expanding internal access and trail systems. The land sits within a leeward-facing drainage, naturally protected from prevailing winds, and is surrounded by a mix of agricultural ground and larger timber tracts. This positioning enhances both wildlife movement and overall huntability. Timber across the property is a diverse mix of hardwoods and softwoods, including white oak, red oak, beech, hemlock, pine, birch, and cherry. The tract is composed of both intermediate successional growth and sections of more mature timber, creating a balanced structure that already supports wildlife while offering opportunity for further improvement. With strategic timber stand improvement (TSI), including selective cutting and potential prescribed burning, the property can be enhanced to promote sunlight to the forest floor-encouraging native forbs and grasses that improve bedding cover and browse. Water is a defining feature throughout. Multiple spring-fed creeks run through the property, feeding into a beaver pond with an established dam and a creek tailing out below. This area adds habitat diversity and presents strong potential for waterfowl use, particularly wood ducks. From a hunting perspective, the property shows immediate promise. Deer sign is evident throughout with well-used trails, tracks, and natural travel corridors. Turkey activity is present, with nesting observed on the property. The surrounding agricultural fields further support consistent wildlife movement, while the layout of the land and road frontage allows for access to multiple stand locations across varying wind directions without compromising the property. There are currently no open fields, but the existing structure and growth stage make it a workable blank slate for creating food plots, bedding areas, or additional access improvements. Positioned within the Richmondville Central School District, the property currently has no confirmed electric at the road and would require well and septic if building is pursued. Nearby homes suggest potential for future development, though buyers should conduct their own due diligence regarding buildability. Conveniently located approximately 55 minutes from Albany, 15-20 minutes from Cobleskill, and 25-30 minutes from Middleburgh, the property offers a balance of privacy and accessibility. Whether you're looking for a blank slate hunting property, a recreational retreat, or a long-term land investment with the ability to improve and customize over time, this Schoharie County tract delivers the right combination of access, habitat, and potential.

Questions to ask before you buy

Questions worth investigating for any waterfront property. They are not claims that this property has a problem or meets any condition.

1. Who owns the shoreline and the land under the water, and are there easements or public-access rights along it?Ownership can stop at a high-water line, a survey line or a seawall. A title search and survey answer this, not the listing.
2. Is a dock, slip, lift or mooring included, and do the rights transfer to you?Docks can be shared, leased, assigned by an association or held under a permit that does not automatically transfer.
3. What permits exist for the dock, seawall or other shoreline structures, and what would new work require?Shoreline work is often regulated by local, state and federal agencies.
4. How much does the water level change by season, by tide or by reservoir management?Depth at a dock in one season can differ a lot in another.
5. What does flood insurance cost for this property, and what does the current flood map show?Get a quote from an insurer or agent. A flood zone is not a premium, and no zone does not mean no risk.
6. What maintenance does the shoreline need (seawall, bulkhead, riprap, erosion), and what has been done recently?Shoreline structures are expensive to repair; ask for records and inspection reports.
7. How are water, sewer or septic, and power provided?Waterfront septic systems and wells can have extra rules and inspections.
8. How do you reach the property by road year-round, and who maintains that road?Some waterfront roads are private, seasonal or shared.
9. What local rules apply: rentals, docks, boat lifts, fences, tree removal, setbacks?Rules come from the town, county, state, lake authority or association and vary widely.
