1,200 acres nestled within approximately 8,000 acres of forested, recreational conservation land (for a total of over 9,000 acres of environmentally and recreationally protected land) only sixty miles north of New York City. The property features elevations that rise to over 1,200 feet providing spectacular views of the Hudson River and surrounding valley, the Cold Spring Reservoir and Lake Valhalla. This is the largest environmentally beautiful and pure recreational residential land assemblage within 100+ mile radius of New York City.

 

This property offers a great opportunity for a high-end master planned development with homes in the $5-10 million range as well as a cluster of luxury cabins offered on a fractional sale basis, like the Rockefeller Resort “The Point” on Saranac Lake in the Catskills.

 

The property is located conveniently off Route 9, approximately 50 miles from New York City, in Cold Spring, New York, on the Hudson River. Commute-wise, there are 53 trains each day that travel between Cold Spring (where the property is located) and Grand Central Station in New York City. With a distance of 50+ miles, the standard train commute time is approximately one hour and six minutes each way. The property is only an eight minute drive away from the train station.

 

Recognizing an opportunity for significant value enhancement, the Sponsor completed vertical and horizontal plane studies to guarantee that views from selected home sites capture the pristine natural surroundings of the Property. Each home site will enjoy dedicated and uninterrupted lake, mountain, reservoir or river views along with direct access to Lake Valhalla.

 

Homes built in Lake Valhalla will cater to those desirous of the “Hudson Valley Lifestyle”, which emphasizes living within the natural environment. Green materials used in construction will be selected from a palette of indigenous resources including various types of stone, wood and metal along with an extensive use of glass to insure homes are constructed with high quality materials and are harmonious with their surroundings. Entryways will be set in beautifully landscaped courtyards in addition to maximizing natural views. Interior rooms will incorporate outside access wherever possible to conform with the natural setting.

 

The emphasis on an environmentally sensitive low density development will preserve the integrity of the natural environment and allow future residents the opportunity to enjoy multitudes of outdoor recreational activities, including fishing, hiking, horseback riding, cross country skiing, swimming, and canoeing. Amenities planned to enhance Lake Valhalla, and position it as a premier luxury community, include a clubhouse and restaurant, concierge service, caretaker, security, common wine cellar, mountaintop gazebo and lakefront bed and breakfast for the exclusive use of its residents.
