A Commercial Opportunity Waiting to Be Built! Lot 41 on Towners Road in Kent, NY, is more than vacant land—it’s a blank canvas for the right business, investor, or developer. Located in the 10512 ZIP code and positioned along Towners Road, this commercial parcel offers an opportunity to create something specifically designed for today's market rather than taking on the limitations of an existing building. For the right buyer, the possibilities could include retail, professional office, a service business, contractor-related use, storage, or other commercial applications, subject of course to zoning, municipal approvals and site-plan requirements. And that’s what makes commercial land so interesting: you start with the land and build around the business. Instead of adapting an existing structure to fit your needs, you have the opportunity to plan the property from the ground up—with the building, parking, access and site layout designed around your intended use. Location Matters! Towners Road provides access to the surrounding Kent community and connects an established residential market with nearby communities and major transportation routes. For businesses, visibility and convenience matter. Customers want to be able to find you, get to you and park easily. Employees want accessibility. Owners want a location that supports long-term growth. Location is one of the few things you can't change—and Lot 41 already has it. Why Consider Vacant Commercial Land? For an owner-user, this could be an opportunity to build a property specifically for your business rather than continuing to lease space. For an investor, the property may offer long-term potential depending on permitted uses and development costs. For a developer, it represents an opportunity to create a commercial project from the ground up. Of course, utilities, access, engineering, environmental conditions, drainage, parking, site design and municipal approvals will all need to be investigated before determining exactly what can be developed. That due diligence is critical. The Bottom Line Commercial land doesn't come with an existing blueprint. That's the opportunity. Lot 41 Towners Road offers the next owner the chance to take a piece of land and create something designed specifically for the market, the business and the location. Vacant land doesn't tell you what it was. It asks you to imagine what it could become. Lot 41 Towners Road is ready for that next chapter. The question isn't what sits there today. The question is what you can build there tomorrow.

A rare opportunity to acquire approximately 36 acres of income-producing lakefront property just one hour north of New York City, with convenient access by both car and Metro-North. The property combines immediate cash flow, substantial acreage, recreational appeal, and significant long-term development potential. The compound includes 11 homes, a fully on-grid tiny house, and an Argosy camper. The owner holds six of the homes outright, while five additional homes occupy the property under land leases. Together, these assets generate both residential rental income and recurring land-lease revenue. When fully occupied, the property produces a 7.5% capitalization rate, offering investors a turn-key opportunity with established income from day one. All current tenants are on month-to-month leases allowing for maximum flexibility for the new owner. The property also presents a compelling opportunity for an owner-user seeking a private Hudson Valley retreat. An owner could create an expansive upstate compound where family and friends gather for weekends of boating, hiking, and outdoor recreation, while the existing homes and land leases help offset the cost of ownership. The acreage also provides ample space to develop a private estate or multi-generational family compound. The current owners use the house at 47 Rock Rd, along with the attached ‘glampground’ as a private getaway from the city. They have spent years clearing and beautifying the land, including planting ornamental cherry trees throughout the property. Spring hikes, huge outdoor gatherings in summer, camping in fall, sledding in winter, they use the property as a year-round destination for friends and family. The property is offered 100% turn-key - the tiny home, RV, plow truck, and UTV all convey with the sale. Rolling hills, mature landscaping, scenic trails, and the natural beauty of Lake Gilead surround the property. The setting offers exceptional privacy while remaining remarkably accessible to New York City - close enough for spontaneous weekends and extended stays, yet secluded enough to feel like a true escape. Generate income today. Create additional value tomorrow. This lakefront Hudson Valley compound gives its next owner the flexibility to operate it as an income-producing investment, pursue future development, create a private retreat, or combine all three.

At approximately 0.14 acres, this is a truly unique chance to create a custom waterfront retreat in one of the Hudson Valley's most sought-after lake communities.

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.
