Property Description
Surrounded by protected watershed land and country estates, this untouched compound affords its new caretakers absolute privacy. Criss-crossed with stone walls from when the area was called Milltown, surrounding lands were submerged to make up the reservoirs of the NYC watershed in 1891. Protected DEP land will keep this untouched natural wonder intact for generations to come. 60 miles from NYC, with express trains to GCT close by at Southeast Station. Several picture-perfect home sites overlook the breathtaking East Branch and Bog Brook Reservoirs. Potential to subdivide the land as an exclusive community, or keep intact and use as a secluded family compound. Expansive vistas, large rock formations, and 2 stone buildings dating from the late 1800's and early 1900's are unique to the area. Every season gives a new perspective on the natural beauty that abounds on this land.
