LGLC Sale Challenge

The Lake George Land Conservancy has been offered a challenge by a generous landowner: if the LGLC can find a buyer for one of their three subdivided house lots, the owner will agree to protect the remaining two from development with a conservation easement. That’s over 200 feet of protected shoreline and over 5 acres of land that will remain protected.

The LGLC is pleased to offer this incredible opportunity for a buyer to purchase one of the few remaining large shoreline properties on Lake George. Enjoy the stunning views of Anthonys Nose from your very private property! The buyer will purchase 8.08 +- acres of land and over 350 feet of shoreline on a beautiful private cove on Lake George. This property is located in Putnam, New York just southeast of the community of Glenburnie on Lake George. This nature lovers dream parcel is offered for $494,990.

Situated on the north side of Warrick Road the property is within walking distance of nearly 900 acres of preserved land including LGLC’s Anthonys Nose, the Last Great Shoreline, and Gull Bay Preserve. Over ninety-nine species of birds inhabit this land with Bald Eagles and Peregrine Falcons nesting on the cliffs of Record Hill.

Working with the buyer, a mutually agreed upon plan will be developed that permits one house site, ancillary uses (such as garage, driveway, dock) and viewshed clearing. The remaining land will be protected under a perpetual conservation easement. The easement will prohibit further subdivision but permit sustainable forestry. This beautiful forested parcel could supply plenty of wood for your fireplace. Three moorings and docks are permitted under the regulations of Lake George Park Commission; however, one mooring-right will be retained by the current land owners. The property has over 380 feet of road frontage on Warrick Road, a shared driveway, power available within the property and an approved septic area. The Town of Putnam maintains the graveled road and plows during the winter. There are recorded protective covenants and a driveway maintenance agreement. The tree and shrub canopy will be permitted to be kept open for unsurpassed views of the Lake and Anthonys Nose and Record Hill. The LGLC is not taking a commission for this sale.
