The Black Creek Headwaters Farm encompasses 216 acres of scenic farm and forestland in Washington County. Located on a quiet year-round road, the property features an 1860s farmhouse with views of a beaver pond, hayfields, and rolling hills. The property's natural aesthetic features and widespread access make it suitable for various commercial endeavors, including agritourism, glamping, weddings, or retreats. The farmhouse, approximately 2,847 square feet, includes 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths, modernized while retaining its rural character, featuring a grand fireplace and hearth, a modern kitchen and dining area, a sunroom, and a secluded deck. Adjacent to the farmhouse is a 980 square foot in-law house, a modern ranch-style home with 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. The Black Creek Headwaters Farm is an operating farm, benefiting from an agricultural exemption and generating income from hay and suckling pig sales. There are approximately 40 acres of hayfields and pastures, with some fenced areas previously used for horses. A 46' x 38' steel barn with a hayloft, built in recent years, currently houses suckling pigs. The majority of the property is forested, with much of the forestland enrolled under Real Property Tax Law 480a, allowing for reduced tax assessment through proper forest management. A 2019-2020 timber harvest aimed to improve timber quality and enhance wildlife habitat, leading to an increased presence of white-tailed deer, black bear, ruffed grouse, woodcock, and turkey. The property has an exceptional network of roads and trails for farm use and recreation, accommodating a modern-sized pickup truck or SUV. Interior roads provide access to long-distance views of the Green Mountains in Vermont. Three natural ponds amount to nearly 18 acres, providing waterfowl habitat for Canada geese, mallards, wood ducks, and mergansers. The Black Creek Headwaters Farm is half an hour from Glens Falls, less than an hour from Saratoga Springs, and 40 minutes from Manchester, Vermont. It is just over an hour from Albany Airport and less than 30 minutes from the Floyd Bennett Airport.
