The property is defined by classic, granite stonewalls, exceptional forest aesthetics, brook frontage along year-round Mill Brook and three scenic beaver meadows. Opportunities include weekend cottage or year-round residential options, light rural subdivision, and an abundance of outdoor recreational pursuits. The western two-thirds of the land is classic, upland-type hardwood ground, which slopes gradually from the height of ground near the southwest corner toward the east. The lands cool, moist east-facing slopes offer nice morning sunshine and good aspect for northern hardwood production. Terrain in the eastern third of the land is more gentle and flat with three distinct and scenic beaver meadows lying along Mill Brook. These openings in the forest canopy provide excellent habitat for wildlife.
Major tree species on the property include sugar maple, red oak, white pine, white birch, aspen and hemlock. The forest is well-stocked and the most recent ownership has left a light footprint on the timber resource over the past 15 years. Stem quality, crown vigor, tree height and forest aesthetics are above average for the Adirondack region.
