Land for Sale in Burlington Flats, New York

Wallbridge Mill - c1820 historic gristmill complex on Wharton Creek, Burlington Flats, NY ±12.61 acres | 3 structures | creek frontage on both banks | pond | Once one of at least 125 Otsego County gristmills - and one of the last remaining complex mills of its kind - Wallbridge Mill operated as a sawmill, gristmill, tannery, and distillery across its two-hundred-year life. Built by the Wallbridge family on Wharton Creek c1820, the mill's twelve-over-twelve windows, stone foundation, massive timber frame and classical moldings speak quietly to its age and craftsmanship. This is not a ruin. This is a rare surviving piece of upstate New York's working history, waiting for its next chapter. The combined property - now three parcels merged into one offering - spans ±12.61 acres along both banks of Wharton Creek, with manicured lawns, mature apple trees, lush established plantings, and a small pond. The structures include: the mill itself, a small house with garage on the upper portion of the property, and the former miller's house - a later guest and boarding house, nestled creek-side next to the mill. The opportunities here are as wide as the imagination: a private historic estate, an artist's compound, an event venue, a boutique inn, an adaptive reuse project, a working mill restoration, or simply a singular retreat unlike anything else on the market in central New York. Historic preservation tax credits and grant programs may be applicable - buyers are encouraged to explore state and federal incentives for properties of this significance. Edmeston Central School District. Easy access to Cooperstown, Oneonta, I-88, and US 20. Approximately 3.5 hours from New York City.
