Residential Land for Sale in Newburgh, New York
12 Hinchcliffe Dr, Newburgh, NY 12550
Welcome to a rare opportunity to build your dream home in one of the area's most charming and established residential enclaves--lined with well-maintained homes valued between $400,000 and $600,000. This generously sized building lot is nestled in a neighborhood offering both seclusion and convenience, with wooded surroundings providing a serene backdrop for your future rear deck. Whether enjoying morning coffee or hosting a gathering, the setting promises an escape from daily life. Just ten minutes from two major Interstates, the location is a commuter's dream--ideal for travel to NYC, Westchester, or Northern New Jersey. Despite easy access, the lot feels far removed from the hustle, offering privacy and calm that buyers value. The property once had Zoning Board of Appeals approvals and a building permit--now expired but fairly recent so not starting from scratch. This gives a useful head start for those seeking to re-apply. Daily conveniences like groceries, shopping, gyms, banks, and restaurants are all within a 10-20 minute drive. You won't need to trade peace for practicality. Recreation abounds, with two nearby community parks featuring trails, open space, and playgrounds. Water enthusiasts will enjoy quick access to Riverside and Gull Harbor marinas on the Hudson River--perfect for boating, kayaking, or simply enjoying the views. The area is known for its small-town character with modern amenities. With community events, local markets, hiking opportunities, and seasonal festivals, this lot offers not just a place to build--but a lifestyle. In a region where available land is increasingly scarce, this lot offers a rare combination of accessibility, character, and future value. It's more than just a place to build--it's a canvas for your next chapter. Whether you're a builder, an investor, or an end-user with a vision, this parcel checks all the right boxes. And the setting? It's exactly what you'd hope for. Hinchcliffe Drive is part of a modest, neighborhood--a place where people wave from porches. The land itself is mostly cleared with a gentle topography, offering flexibility in siting a future home while maintaining a degree of privacy from the street. Utilities are nearby. The parcel is perfectly suited for someone who wants a manageable lot with minimal maintenance, yet enough space to build a full-sized, comfortable home. It's also strategically located. Just minutes from the heart of Newburgh, the property offers proximity to major roadways like I-84 and the New York State Thruway, making commuting simple whether you're heading east toward the Hudson River or west toward Middletown and beyond. Shopping, schools, and parks are all within reach, as is the growing charm of Newburgh's revitalized waterfront. What makes 12 Hinchcliffe Drive truly special, though, is what it represents: opportunity in a market where such chances are becoming increasingly scarce. With housing inventory tight and buildable lots harder to come by--especially lots that already have a variance in place--this land offers a shortcut to building, free from the red tape that stops so many projects before they begin. It's the kind of place that doesn't shout but instead waits quietly for someone with vision. A first-time homebuilder looking to break ground. A downsizer wanting to custom-design something efficient. A local contractor who knows the value of an already-cleared lot with municipal access. Whether your interest is personal or professional, this is not just a plot of land. It's a canvas, already prepped and primed, waiting for someone to bring the next chapter of its story to life.
