Situated on a height of land among the verdant dairy and cattle farms of Greenwich, NY, Twin Peaks offers spectacular long-distance views of Saratoga and Washington Counties and, on a clear day, the Adirondack Mountains. Twin Peaks is located on County Route 77/Bald Mountain Road, which is a paved, year-round road with electric service at the roadside. This property was once a homestead, as evidenced by an old farm pond, dug well, and cellar hole. Stone walls, which once delineated the property's woods from its agricultural lands, crisscross the property. Fields have since reverted to forestland over the last 100 years. The property lends itself to a small hobby farm, sugarbush, wild and cultivated mushroom production as well as natural foraging. Given that the property is situated among farms and forest, the regional landscape offers great hunting opportunities, especially for whitetail deer which migrate among the varied and desirable landscapes of Washington County. Twin Peaks is 61 surveyed acres of sugar maple and oak forest, with two heights of land that provide opportunities for existing and potential views. Other possibilities include the construction of a pond or the development of the small, old farm pond into a scenic water and wildlife feature. There is a camp on the property (in tear-down condition) located on a secluded, remote site nearly 1,800 feet from Bald Mountain Road. From this location, the county road cannot be seen, and noise is greatly diminished due to the distance and vegetative buffer. This property has been under the 480a tax program since 2017, with 57 of the 61 acres enrolled. The remaining acreage allows for the siting of a home or camp. A thinning harvest was conducted under the guidance of a professional forester, creating conditions that promote the long-term growth of high-quality timber, including white pine, red oak, and sugar maple. Forest management activities have established and improved interior access, with a favorable trail network suitable for ATV, horse, and hiking traffic. Wildlife habitat and forage have also been enhanced, benefitting a wild range of species, such as woodcock, ruffed grouse, turkey, whitetail deer, and black bear. Twin Peaks is located just 3 miles from the Village of Greenwich, a picturesque village with all the necessities. Saratoga Springs is only 16 miles away, with endless opportunities for dining and entertainment, including the Saratoga Race Track.
