    Overview

    This offering is a large Adirondack timberland estate comprising 3,190 acres in the northern Adirondacks of New York. The property centers on an exclusive 215-acre portion of Little River Lake, which extends nearly two-and-a-half miles and is bordered by approximately 29,000 feet of shoreline. Lake depths are noted as averaging 10 feet with a maximum of 30 feet, and the remarks describe habitat for largemouth bass and brook trout. The estate includes a managed timber resource with hardwood species such as sugar maple, yellow birch, red maple, and cherry, along with shoreline cabins, a historic dam, and abundant wildlife.

    A key feature is the historic dam constructed in 1953. The remarks describe an earthen and rock structure spanning more than 1,400 feet and rising nearly 45 feet high, originally built to support nearby Benson Mines’ iron ore operations. The dam is described as being in good condition, and the remarks discuss possible repurposing for hydropower generation.

    For buyers looking for recreation and land-based operations, the property’s mix of lake frontage, timber management, and existing cabins supports a broad range of uses consistent with the estate setting. The southern portion is described in the remarks as a potential sugarbush area, with over 900 acres noted and a potential tapping scale discussed for maple syrup production. Access is provided via 4891 State Route 3, Star Lake, NY 13690.
