Vacant Land in Lake Peekskill
$29,000
1.48 Acres
Lake Peekskill, New York, 10537
Three adjoining parcels-Lot 11 Traverse Road, Lot 13 Walnut Road, and Lot 15 Walnut Road in Lake Peekskill, New York 10537-are now being offered together as one combined opportunity. Individually, each lot tells its own story: a slice of wooded hillside, a quiet path between rustic roads, and a glimpse of the tranquil lake just down the hill. But together, they form something rare-a generous piece of land that invites imagination and possibility in one of Putnam County's most charming lake communities. The setting is peaceful yet convenient. Traverse and Walnut are small country roads where neighbors wave, dogs are walked daily, and the sound of wind in the trees replaces the noise of traffic. This location is part of the Lake Peekskill community, known for its scenic water views, private beaches, and relaxed weekend feel-just about an hour from New York City. Here, weekends can blend into weekdays, with the lake always nearby for kayaking, fishing, or quiet reflection. The seller is offering all three contiguous parcels as a single sale, creating a rare buildable footprint in an area where land is scarce. Together, they offer more space, more flexibility, and more privacy than a single small lot could provide. Whether the buyer envisions a year-round home, a weekend retreat, or simply an investment in a growing area, this collection of parcels gives them the breathing room to design something truly special. Even better, the seller will allow the buyer to obtain Board of Health Approval (BOHA)-a valuable chance to move forward with confidence and secure the necessary approvals for a future home. This open-door approach adds real value, giving the next owner both control and peace of mind through the process. Opportunities like this rarely come along in Lake Peekskill. Three lots, one vision, and a seller willing to support your plans. The land is ready for someone with imagination-a buyer who sees more than trees and slopes, who sees a future home nestled in the woods just minutes from the lake. Lot 11 Traverse, Lot 13 Walnut, and Lot 15 Walnut Road-sold together, offered together, ready to become something more.

Vacant Land in Glen Spey
$39,000
2.14 Acres
Glen Spey, New York, 12737
Rare opportunity to purchase two adjacent lots together - Lot 27 William St and Lot 18 Baran Dr - totaling approximately 2.14 acres in the Town of Lumberland. Property is located in the RHD zoning district, which currently requires 3 acres minimum to build; therefore, a variance will be required in order to obtain a building permit. Zoning permits the construction of either a 1-family or 2-family home, subject to municipal approvals. This offering is ideal for buyers seeking a potential residential building site and willing to pursue the variance process. Conveniently located near local amenities, recreation, and major roadways. Buyer to verify all zoning, building, and approval requirements with the Town of Lumberland.

Vacant Land in Franklin
$49,500
9 Acres
Franklin, New York, 13775
29.4 Sunset Trail, Franklin, NY 13775 - 9 Acres of Solitude, Wildlife, and Possibility. At the very end of a rugged private dirt road in Delaware County, you'll find a quiet circle in the grass-untouched, undisturbed, and waiting for the right kind of buyer. Welcome to Lot 29.4 Sunset Trail, a 9-acre parcel of raw land where nature does most of the talking. If you've been searching for your own upstate escape, a quiet place to hunt, or an off-grid retreat spot with true seclusion, this property could be your match. Tucked away on a trail that sees more deer than people, this parcel is being offered as hunting land, though its appeal extends far beyond. Hunters will appreciate the location-surrounded by similar parcels, the land sees minimal human traffic. There are signs of wildlife throughout, from deer trails to the occasional fox or turkey. As you reach the end of Sunset Trail, the land opens up with a grassy circular area, naturally formed over time. This quiet turnaround spot gives you a flat, usable space to park a camper, pitch a tent, or just gear up before heading into the woods. It's rustic and functional, without any frills-and that's exactly how it should be. The property itself is heavily wooded, a mix of hardwoods and softwoods typical of the Catskills region. The terrain is varied but manageable, offering natural elevation changes and a mix of open understory and denser patches of brush. Whether you're bow hunting or looking to hike and explore, there's plenty of room to roam. You won't find utilities here, but that's part of the appeal-no wires, no close neighbors, no distractions. Located just outside the quaint village of Franklin and only a short drive to Oneonta or Delhi, this parcel provides a true escape while still keeping you within reach of modern amenities. Sunset Trail is a seasonal road-not town-maintained-reinforcing the off-grid nature of this opportunity. Four-wheel drive is recommended during wet or winter months, but that's the price of privacy in this part of upstate New York. Thinking longer-term? There's potential here beyond just recreation. With town approval, a buyer might explore future development or cabin construction. For now, it's an open canvas for hunters, naturalists, weekend campers, or anyone seeking a piece of undisturbed land in the foothills of the Catskills. 29.4 Sunset Trail is more than land. It's a place to unplug, to breathe, and to connect with nature. Whether you're tracking wildlife, stargazing at night, or just taking a break from the chaos of modern life, this 9-acre retreat offers the rare kind of stillness that can't be bought in suburbia.

Vacant Land in Lake Peekskill
$35,000
2.47 Acres
Lake Peekskill, New York, 10537
Lot 7 on Reichert Road isn't the kind of property that shouts for attention. It doesn't need to. It sits quietly in Lake Peekskill, confident in what it offers to someone who understands land-not just as acreage, but as opportunity. At 2.47 acres, this parcel does something rare in the LP Zone: it meets the zoning requirement head-on. Two acres are required to build here, and Lot 7 clears that threshold with room to breathe. There's no guesswork, no "almost," no immediate need to chase a variance before you even begin imagining a home. The land works with you, not against you. What truly sets this property apart is its 695 feet of road frontage along Reichert Road. That kind of frontage changes the conversation. It offers flexibility in siting a home, allows for privacy through thoughtful setbacks, and gives the property a presence that smaller, tighter parcels simply can't match. Whether you envision a long, winding driveway or multiple design options to take advantage of the terrain, the frontage provides choices-and in land, choices are everything. But Lake Peekskill is never just about the dirt beneath your boots. It's about lifestyle, and this lot includes deeded lake rights-an increasingly scarce asset in this area. That means access to the lake not as a guest, not as a favor, but as a right attached to the land itself. Morning paddles, quiet afternoons by the water, and the simple luxury of knowing the lake is part of your daily environment all come baked into the deed. The LP Zone carries a character all its own. Homes are spaced, nature is respected, and the neighborhood retains a sense of calm that feels increasingly hard to find. This isn't a subdivision squeezed to the margins of zoning codes. It's a setting where landowners value space, trees, and the long view-both literally and figuratively. Lot 7 is the kind of property buyers often miss because it isn't flashy on first glance. But walk it. Stand at the road. Picture how 695 feet of frontage feels. Consider what it means to own a compliant buildable lot with lake rights in a community where those pieces rarely line up so cleanly. Some properties sell because of what's already built. Others sell because of what they make possible. Lot 7 on Reichert Road belongs firmly in the second category-a quiet, confident piece of Lake Peekskill that's ready for its next chapter.

Vacant Land in Carmel
$39,000
2.78 Acres
Carmel, New York, 10512
Lot 42 on Ludingtonville Road doesn't announce itself. It sits quietly along the road, offering 365 feet of frontage that most drivers pass without a second glance. No sign, no cleared entrance-just a stretch of land in the Town of Kent with a Carmel mailing address, waiting for someone willing to slow down long enough to actually see it. At 2.78 acres in an R-80 zone, it isn't trying to be everything. It doesn't promise grand scale. What it offers instead is something more subtle-and, depending on who you are, more valuable: thoughtful opportunity. The first thing you notice isn't the size. It's the sound. A stream cuts through the middle of the land, moving steadily from right to left. It's not loud or dramatic-but constant. The kind of sound that settles into the background until you realize it's the only thing you hear. That stream defines the lot more than any map ever could. There is no survey available, You will be responsible to have a survey done at your expense if you need it. There's a balance here shaped by the land itself. The frontage opens things up, while the interior draws you inward, away from the road and toward something quieter. The presence of the stream introduces natural considerations that influence how the property is understood. This is the kind of lot that asks questions before it gives answers. And that's where most people walk away. The lack of a survey brings uncertainty. The stream suggests constraints. For someone looking for easy, this isn't it. But for the right buyer-the one who sees land not as a checklist, but as a process-it's different. There's something honest about a property like this. Nothing is handed to you. Every decision has to be thought through, and in that process, the result feels more intentional. Lot 42 isn't a blank canvas. It's a conversation-one that starts at the road, winds through the trees, crosses the stream, and asks a simple question: Are you willing to figure it out?

Vacant Land in Wappingers Falls
$69,000
4.3 Acres
Wappingers Falls, New York, 12590
Along the rolling stretch of New York State Route 376 in Wappingers Falls, the parcel identified as Tax ID 0135689-6358-01-371884-0000 rests within the R-40/80 zoning district - a designation that quietly defines both its limits and its potential. R-40/80 is not high-density ground. It is residential land shaped by scale. The zoning generally calls for substantial minimum lot sizes - typically 40,000 square feet where public water and sewer are available, and up to 80,000 square feet where they are not. That distinction alone tells you something important: this is land meant for breathing room. Route 376 carries steady daily movement - commuters heading north and south, navigating school schedules, residents connecting to larger corridors. Yet the R-40/80 designation pulls development back from that rhythm. Wide setbacks, controlled lot coverage, and dimensional requirements ensure that any home built here sits with presence, not pressure. Standing on the property, you can imagine a long driveway extending from the roadway, gradually separating the homesite from passing traffic. Mature trees preserved along the frontage. A residence positioned deep enough to feel private while still benefiting from accessibility. This zoning encourages single-family living with scale - not crowded subdivisions, but individual homes with space between them. What makes R-40/80 compelling is the balance. The corridor provides convenience. The zoning protects character. In areas where density often creeps forward lot by lot, this designation resists that trend. It preserves openness and reinforces a suburban pattern rather than an urban one. For a builder or end user who understands land, the code becomes part of the design. Minimum frontage requirements influence orientation. Yard setbacks define envelope. Utility availability shapes lot yield if subdivision is considered. Every dimensional standard becomes a guide rather than a barrier. On Route 376, opportunity can take many forms. Commercial parcels capture traffic. Higher-density zones invite clustering. But R-40/80 speaks differently. It speaks to longevity. To homes that stand back from the road, framed by lawn and tree line. To development measured in quality rather than quantity. Tax ID 0135689-6358-01-371884-0000 is more than acreage on a highway. It is land defined by structure and space - positioned where access meets restraint, and where the next chapter will be written carefully within the framework that R-40/80 provides. ****5 OTHYER LOTS AVAILABLE AS SHOWN IN PICTURES****

Vacant Land in Wappingers Falls
$400,000
33.7 Acres
Wappingers Falls, New York, 12590
Along the steady flow of New York State Route 376 in Wappingers Falls, the parcel Tax ID 0135689-6358-01-289747-0000, sits within the CC - Community Commercial - zone. Here, the rhythm of the road is not a distraction; it is the opportunity. Route 376 is a connector. It carries residents from neighborhoods to schools, from homes to Route 9, from local errands to daily routines. Visibility matters here. Access matters here. And CC zoning was written for corridors exactly like this - places where commerce meets community. Community Commercial does not mean heavy industry or warehouse traffic. It means scale with intention. Retail shops. Professional offices. Service businesses. Restaurants that draw from the surrounding rooftops. Uses designed to serve the population that already drives past every day. The zoning anticipates parking, landscaping, buffering, and site plan review - structure that shapes development into something orderly and lasting. Standing on the property, you can feel the potential in the frontage. A well-designed building here would not hide. It would present itself to the corridor - signage positioned carefully, access planned thoughtfully, setbacks allowing room for visibility without overwhelming the roadway. CC zoning requires discipline, but that discipline creates value. It filters out uses that don't belong and encourages businesses that become part of the fabric of town life. In a market where commercial land along primary roads grows increasingly scarce, this parcel represents position. It sits where traffic counts translate into customer counts. Where rooftops nearby create demand. Where zoning already aligns with commercial intent. The difference between land and opportunity is often zoning. On Route 376, this CC designation defines the future before construction begins. It invites a use that serves, engages, and endures - not just another building, but a presence along one of Wappinger's most active corridors. ****5 OTHYER LOTS AVAILABLE AS SHOWN IN PICTURES****

Vacant Land in Putnam Valley
$289,000
0.5 Acres
Putnam Valley, New York, 10579
There's something rare about owning a place that feels completely removed from everything-yet still within reach. Tucked within Oscawana Lake in Putnam Valley sits a true escape: a private island paired with its own dedicated dock parcel along the shoreline, offering a gateway to a different pace of life. This offering includes two tax parcels-62.10-2-6, the island itself, and 62.14-1-35, a separate dock lot that provides your essential access point. They are being conveyed together, inseparable by design, forming an experience that begins at the water's edge and carries you across to your own secluded retreat. The journey is part of the story. You arrive at your private dock, step into a boat, and within moments, the mainland fades behind you. What replaces it is stillness-water gently moving against the shoreline, the sound of wind through trees, and a sense of ownership that's increasingly hard to find. This is not just land; it's separation, privacy, and presence. The island itself offers a natural setting shaped by time and untouched character. It invites simple, meaningful use-day trips, quiet afternoons, fishing at sunrise, or evenings watching the light settle across the lake. Whether you envision a rustic campsite, a gathering place or simply a personal refuge, the value here lies in the experience rather than development intensity. Importantly, this is being offered strictly as a recreational property to be enjoyed as it is. It's about preserving what makes it special: the water, the isolation, and the freedom to enjoy it on your own terms. Properties like this are increasingly uncommon-especially with dedicated, deeded access included. Without the dock parcel, the island is just a view. With it, it becomes something far more meaningful: a destination you can reach, use, and truly call your own. Together, these two parcels create a singular opportunity-a place where the shoreline is just the beginning, and the real value lies just beyond it.

Vacant Land in Carmel
$24,900
0.25 Acres
Carmel, New York, 10512
Lot 41 on Towners Road in Kent, NY 10512 isn't just a vacant parcel - it's a blank canvas positioned in one of Putnam County's most strategic corridors. Set along Towners Road, this commercial piece of land sits where visibility meets opportunity. The 10512 zip code places it squarely in the heart of Kent, a town that continues to see steady traffic flow between Carmel, Patterson, and the I-84 corridor. For business owners and investors, location is leverage - and Lot 41 offers it. This is the kind of property that invites vision. Retail. Professional office. Service-based business. Storage. Contractor yard. With commercial zoning in place, the groundwork for possibility is already there. What makes vacant commercial land powerful is flexibility - you're not inheriting someone else's layout or limitations. You're designing with purpose from day one. Towners Road carries local commuters, tradespeople, and residents who rely on nearby businesses every single day. In a town where residential growth continues but commercial inventory remains limited, well-located land becomes increasingly valuable. Businesses want exposure. Customers want convenience. Lot 41 delivers both. Utilities, access, engineering, and site planning will shape the final vision, but the fundamental ingredient - location - is already secured. Commercial land in Kent doesn't come up every day, especially parcels that allow a buyer to control their build from the ground up. For an investor, this is a hold with upside. For an owner-user, it's a chance to stop paying rent and build equity. For a developer, it's a footprint in a market that still rewards smart positioning. Vacant land tells a different story than an existing building. It doesn't show you what was - it asks you what could be. Lot 41 Towners Road is ready for the next chapter. The question isn't what it is today. It's what someone with vision will turn it into tomorrow.

Vacant Land in Garrison
$29,000
1.18 Acres
Garrison, New York, 10524
Opportunity to own 1.18 acres of unimproved land in the desirable Garrison area. Located on a private road, this wooded parcel offers a peaceful setting for those looking to build a custom home or invest in land. The property is situated within the R-80 zoning district and may require zoning relief and/or variances for development. Buyers are strongly encouraged to perform their own due diligence with the Town of Philipstown regarding zoning requirements, approvals, permitted uses, utilities, access, and building feasibility. Conveniently located near Metro-North, major commuter routes, hiking trails, and the Hudson River, this parcel offers the chance to create your vision in one of Putnam County's most sought-after communities.

Vacant Land in Wappingers Falls
$319,000
116.76 Acres
Wappingers Falls, New York, 12590
On a stretch of New York State Route 376 where traffic hums between neighborhoods and quietly waiting for its next chapter. Identified on the tax rolls as 0135689-6358-01-495857-0000, the property lies within the Town of Wappinger and carries the R-3A zoning designation - a classification that tells you immediately this is not ordinary ground. R-3A in the Wappingers Falls area is about space. It is about breathing room. It is about protecting a certain rural character that still lingers along portions of Route 376 despite steady growth around it. Three-acre minimums. Wide setbacks. Generous frontage. The kind of zoning that doesn't rush development - it shapes it carefully. Standing at the roadside, you feel the contrast. Cars pass, connecting commuters to larger corridors, yet the land itself feels set back from the noise. The R-3A designation suggests a future defined not by commercial storefronts or dense clusters, but by a single-family home with presence - long driveway, broad lawn, preserved tree lines, and distance between neighbors. In a corridor where mixed uses appear up and down the highway, this parcel holds onto a quieter vision. The scale requirements of R-3A mean any home built here would command space - both visually and physically. Front setbacks pull construction away from the road. Side yards ensure privacy. The acreage requirement protects the openness that buyers in Dutchess County increasingly seek but rarely find along primary routes. For an owner or developer who understands land, that zoning is not a limitation - it is positioning. It defines the product before a shovel ever hits the ground. This is not high-turnover property. It is legacy land. A homesite with room to design intentionally, to capture light, to preserve trees, and to create separation from the very road that makes it accessible. On Route 376, opportunity often moves quickly. But this parcel moves differently. It waits for the right vision - one that respects the scale, the code, and the character of R-3A. In a market that constantly pushes inward, this land still stretches outward. ****5 OTHYER LOTS AVAILABLE AS SHOWN IN PICTURES****
