Land with Home for Sale in Seward Town, New York

Set along a quiet country road in Schoharie County, this 29.28± acre property offers an uncommon combination of productive agricultural ground, wooded acreage, an existing country home, and established farm infrastructure. Located at 812 Gardnersville Road near Cobleskill, the property provides approximately 1,150± feet of road frontage and a diverse landscape suited for agricultural, homestead, recreational, and rural residential uses. Approximately 16.5± acres consist of tillable and open agricultural ground, with mapped soils consisting predominantly of Mohawk and Lima silt loams along with areas of Mohawk and Honeoye soils. The open acreage provides an established foundation for continued agricultural production, hay ground, pasture, gardens, or other uses appropriate to the property and subject to applicable regulations. Another approximately 10.5± acres are wooded, creating a natural transition from the working portions of the property into additional recreational and wildlife habitat. A 475± foot gravel driveway leads from Gardnersville Road into the property, providing privacy and separation from the road. The gently rolling to mostly level terrain offers attractive country views across the surrounding agricultural landscape. Whitetail deer have been observed on the property, while the combination of open ground, wooded cover, field edges, and brush-hogged paths provides additional opportunities for wildlife observation and recreation. At the center of the property is a rustic four-bedroom country home offering approximately 1,920 square feet of living space. Built in 2018, the home provides a simple rural living setup and currently does not have electrical wiring within the residence. However, 200-amp electrical service has been brought onto the property, providing infrastructure for future improvements. A stovepipe installation also provides the setup for future wood-burning heat. Buyers should independently evaluate the residence, utilities, and any desired upgrades based upon their intended use. The property also includes multiple barns, sheds and agricultural outbuildings, storage-container space, hay storage, workshop areas, and two greenhouses. Together with the existing driveway, electrical service, agricultural acreage, and established open ground, these improvements provide a substantial starting point for continued agricultural or homestead use. The property's location adds another dimension to the offering. Cobleskill, Schoharie and Middleburgh are all within convenient reach, while access to NY-145 and Interstate 88 connects the property with the greater Capital Region.
