Overview
Nestled in the breathtaking Ramapo Mountains, this 1.3-acre property offers a rare opportunity to create your dream retreat just 40 miles from New York City. The Village of Tuxedo Park is a legendary community where pure magic begins the moment you drive through the front gates – transforming from a Sherwood Forest in summer to a Winter Wonderland in the colder months. This private, buildable 1.3-acre oasis with paved road access represents more than just land; it’s an invitation to craft your personal sanctuary in one of New York’s most exclusive enclaves. Utilities are fully prepared for development, with connection to water, sewer, and electrical already in place. The 1.3-acre parcel is remarkably flat, promising minimal excavation and positioned near some of the Park’s most prominent historic properties, including the Frelinghuysen, Tuckerman, and Poor Mansion estates. The current owner has already invested significant resources – approximately $80, 000 – in site approvals and planning, potentially saving a future owner considerable time and expense in the development process. The Tuxedo Park community is a remarkable destination, offering an extraordinary lifestyle centered around three pristine lakes and a gated 24/7 police-guarded environment. Members can enjoy exclusive amenities including the Wee Wah Beach Club, a comprehensive Tuxedo Park Club with golf, tennis, paddle, pickle ball, court tennis, rackets and boat facilities, and a stunning 21-acre nature preserve – a transformed 1887 polo field (the racetrack) that has become the community’s natural crown jewel, adding immeasurable beauty and recreational value to this exceptional enclave. With easy transportation from NYC via train and bus, residents enjoy endless outdoor opportunities: swimming, boating, biking, fishing, and miles of groomed hiking trails that wind through the stunning landscape. Embrace the opportunity to own a piece of New York’s most enchanting hidden gem.
