Residential Land for Sale in Brewster, New York
36 Sylvia Barlow Way, Brewster, NY 10509
Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Brewster, New York, 36 Sylvia Barlow Way offers a rare opportunity-a piece of land with a past vision and a future waiting to be defined. This 3.35-acre parcel is more than just acreage; it carries the footprint of a plan that once existed. At one point, the property had an engineered site plan and Board of Health Approval for a four-bedroom home. While those approvals have since expired and the paperwork is no longer available, the intent remains etched into the land itself, offering a meaningful starting point for the next owner. This is not untouched wilderness. The lot is largely level, a valuable feature that can reduce both complexity and cost when it comes time to build. Its cul-de-sac location limits through traffic, creating a sense of privacy and calm. Surrounding homes are attractive and well-maintained, setting a clear precedent for the quality and character of the neighborhood and offering a glimpse of what life on Sylvia Barlow Way can be. Despite its secluded feel, the location is exceptionally convenient. Just minutes from the junction of I-684 and I-84, the property provides easy access to Westchester, Danbury, NYC, and Connecticut's Fairfield County. The nearby Southeast Metro-North station offers an alternative for commuters, while shopping, schools, and dining are all a short drive away. Whether you're a homeowner envisioning a custom build, a builder searching for a well-located project, or an investor who understands the growing scarcity of developable land, 36 Sylvia Barlow Way stands out. The expired BOHA serves as a reference point, inviting a new round of engineering and approvals tailored to today's standards and your specific vision. In a market where quality land is increasingly hard to find, this property offers something rare: context, history, and momentum. The groundwork has been started. What's needed now is someone ready to take the next step. 36 Sylvia Barlow Way isn't just land-it's the opportunity to bring a nearly realized vision fully to life.
