684 County Route 56, Windham

If you're looking for a piece of the Catskill mountains to call your own, look no further than 684 County Route 56/AKA Big Hollow Road! 3 beautiful acres of peace, quiet and tranquility near the end of ''the hollow''.

The hamlet of Maplecrest is part of the town of Windham and has its own unique flavor and character. Originally called Big Hollow, this area is nestled in and surrounded by the Blackhead mountain range which includes Windham High Peak, Blackhead, Black Dome and Thomas Cole. Just up the road are numerous hiking trails and the head waters of the Batavia Kill where early pioneers settled in the late 1700s. Just down the road, one finds access to more hiking trails and CD Lane Park offering a lake, pavilion, ball field and other recreational activities.

Much of the value here is in the land. The 2-bedroom, 2 bath ranch manufactured home could use some TLC, but is a great starting point to unlock the potential of the beautiful property. A 2-car garage with concrete floor adds even more value. There is also a mini-barn storage shed.

Maplecrest is situated almost halfway between Windham and Hunter mountains, making it a terrific winter location for skiers; however, every season is uniquely special. Longtime residents and newer homeowners can agree that there is something extraordinary about this area. This Big Hollow property beside the babbling stream is just one of many. The difference is that this one can be yours.
