This 33-acre parcel in the town of North Hudson borders state land within the Hammond Pond Wild Forest. The land has a private homesite set on a gentle knoll surrounded by tall white pine, with great western views and good natural drainage.
A short walk from the homesite leads to a high point on the property with long views toward the eastern Adirondacks and several of the High Peaks, including Macomb, Dix, and Giant Mountain.
The property has about 1,500 feet of frontage on Ensign Pond Road, a quiet country road lined with large tracts of state land. Electric, phone, and internet are available at the road, making it ready for a home or cabin build. Mature white pine is abundant throughout the property, otherwise there is a pleasant mix of hardwood and softwood.
Outdoor recreation is right out the back door, with direct access to the Hammond Pond Wild Forest (45,000 acres) and other nearby trailheads. The Pharaoh Lake Wilderness (46,000 acres) is also close by, offering even more opportunities for hiking, fishing, paddling, and exploring.
The property is in the Schroon Lake School District and only 15 minutes from Schroon Lake village. Elizabethtown and Keene are about 30 minutes away, and both Lake George and Lake Placid are within 45 minutes.
