00WTP Anthony St., Hillsdale, NY 12529

Located within the Town of Hillsdale itself, this unique 40.25+/- acre offering presents a rare opportunity to own a sizable tract of land in one of Columbia County's most desirable communities. While the property enjoys immediate access to the restaurants, shops, services, and amenities that make Hillsdale such a sought-after destination, its layout and surrounding landscape create a surprisingly secluded setting that feels far removed from everyday activity. Comprised of three separate tax parcels, this property offers a diverse blend of wooded acreage, meadows, wildlife habitat, wetlands, and potential building locations. Whether you're looking to build a private country home, establish a small farmstead, create a recreational retreat, or simply invest in land in a highly sought-after area, this property offers tremendous flexibility. One of the most unique aspects of the property is its location. It is increasingly rare to find a property of this size located directly within the Town of Hillsdale while still offering such a private and secluded feel. Despite being in town and just moments from local restaurants, shopping, community events, and everyday conveniences, the property remains remarkably quiet and protected from the surrounding activity. A private access drive extends approximately 750+/- feet from Primrose Drive to a beautiful meadow area that offers an excellent potential homesite location surrounded by a mix of deciduous and coniferous forest. The setback from the road creates a sense of privacy that is difficult to find in properties located so close to town amenities. The landscape features a highly diverse habitat mix that creates both visual appeal and strong wildlife value. The property contains mature hardwoods, conifer stands, brushy transition zones, open meadow areas, wetlands, and old stone walls that reflect the area's agricultural history. The combination of these habitat types creates ideal conditions for a variety of wildlife species and contributes to the property's excellent hunting potential. For sportsmen and outdoor enthusiasts, the property functions as a natural travel corridor. The land directly borders the protected Rheinstrom Hill Audubon Center and Sanctuary, a large conservation property consisting of extensive forest, habitat, and trail systems. Wildlife moving between the protected sanctuary lands and surrounding agricultural areas naturally travel through this section of Hillsdale, creating an excellent funnel effect for whitetail deer and other game species. Deer, bear, waterfowl, and a variety of other wildlife have all been observed on the property. A logging road and trail system currently circumnavigates much of the property, providing excellent internal access for recreation, hiking, hunting, habitat management, and future property improvements. The gently rolling terrain offers multiple areas suitable for recreation and potential development while maintaining the property's natural character. A mix of meadow, low brush, conifer cover, hardwood forest, and small wetland areas creates a highly diverse environment that supports both wildlife and recreational enjoyment. The property is believed to be buildable pending a successful perc test and local approvals. Electric is available at the road, and the existing driveway access provides a significant head start toward future development. The combination of accessibility, privacy, and location makes this property particularly appealing for buyers seeking a homesite without sacrificing acreage or recreational opportunities. Area Attractions One of the strongest selling points of this property is its proximity to the area's premier attractions. The property sits directly within the Town of Hillsdale, providing immediate access to local restaurants, shopping, community events, farmers markets, breweries, and everyday amenities while still maintaining a private country atmosphere. Outdoor recreation opportunities are abundant through
