Harris Road Forest features well-drained hardwood sites, gently-sloping upland terrain, and captivating, long-range mountain views. When considering its shared boundary with nearly 70,000 acres of state lands, the property presents an outstanding purchase opportunity for those seeking a private getaway close to the Northway and the Lake George Region. From the terminus of Harris Road, a town-maintained corridor with utilities, a private woods road climbs gradually across gentle hardwood slopes for 300 feet before reaching the propertys western perimeter. As it enters the land, the road culminates at a former log landing site with southern exposure and long-range views of Gore Mountain. This would make a private and desirable homesite.
The property's forest resource offers a canvass of recently thinned, young hardwood and softwood stands, which can support a variety of long-term ownership objectives. Major species include a diverse mix of maples, ash, beech, hemlock, white pine and other associates. While much of the forest will remain in a free-to-grow pattern over the next 10 years, new growth will enhance existing food and cover for deer and turkey. The two-tiered forest canopy inside the propertys bounds offers a complimentary wildlife habitat mix to the mature, dense Forest Preserve lands to the east.
