A rare development opportunity in the Town of New Paltz, anchored by a substantial 390+ sq m residence that includes a fully self-contained 1-bedroom ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit). Situated on 17 acres of woodland with an attractive 0.6-hectare zoning, the property supports the potential creation of approximately 15-17 residential lots. Depending on final layout and engineering, lot sizes could range from 0.6 to 1 hectare, allowing for flexibility in density, design, and long-term positioning.
The scale lends itself to a thoughtful mix of private building lots, road infrastructure, and acres of preserved open space. Underground utilities have already been extended to service initial future lots, offering a significant head start and considerably reducing upfront infrastructure investment. The existing 269+ sq m home (built 1988), combined with the 121 sq m apartment (1991) above the garage, offers over 390 sq m of functional living space. Designed with multiple living areas, flexible rooms, and generous proportions throughout, it balances spaciousness with defined areas.
Wood floors, a stone fireplace anchoring the living room, well-placed skylights bringing in natural light, and expansive surrounding decks and covered front porch and decks on nearly every side create a strong architectural presence. Multiple upper-level balcony decks extend living space outdoors. The two-car garage features radiant heated flooring, and several additional outbuildings offer ample storage and utility space. With such a solid structure, only customization remains.
This impressive home and property function well, not just as a primary residence, but also as an investment property, condominium, or development headquarters. The land itself is equally compelling. Bordered on two sides by municipal recreational land, including the Ulster County Fairgrounds and the Town of New Paltz's "Field of Dreams" sports fields, with the Ulster County Pool also a short walk away. Minutes away, the River to Ridge Trail connects the Village directly to the Mohonk Preserve, renowned for world-class rock climbing and thousands of acres of protected landscape.
The region is further connected by the Empire State Trail, reinforcing New Paltz's reputation as a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. The property offers a rare blend of privacy and proximity to community amenities. Located minutes from the Village, and approximately 30 minutes to Metro-North train service, this offering combines scale, zoning, infrastructure, and location in an increasingly rare fashion in Ulster County. Large, well-zoned lots of this size and location rarely come to market.
