Introduction

For sale are six individually offered, incredible riverfront parcels along the beautiful West Branch of the Oswegatchie River. The parcel's river frontage provides an entire suite of river attributes - frothy, cascading falls, plunging pools, shimmering ripples, high granite outcroppings, placid flat water – there's a little bit of everything along this stunning river frontage.

Each parcel also offers various private building sites along the river with no nearby roads, houses, or noise.

Location

The parcels are located in the towns of Fowler, Pitcairn and Edwards, St. Lawrence County, New York. This location is at the foothills of the northwestern Adirondacks along the West Branch of the Oswegatchie River. The West Branch is a major tributary of the Oswegatchie, which flows into the main branch near the hamlet of Talcville. The nearby village of Harrisville (population 670) is a rural community along the Oswegatchie River with a full suite of amenities.

St. Lawrence County is the largest in New York State and is home to the St. Lawrence International Seaway, connecting the Great Lakes with the Atlantic. Gouverneur (population 3,949) is an 11-mile drive to the northwest along the Route 58 corridor, while Canton is a 45-minute drive to the north. Syracuse and Rochester/Albany lie within a two and three-hour drive.

Access

The land has +/-0.8 miles of frontage along Stone Road, a year-round maintained, graveled town road with electric power. At the town line, a woods trail heads northeast +/-0.4 miles to the river frontage, offering a nice shoreline camp location upon road improvements. Also, there is a 65' wide right of way 1 mile long, through Parcel 5 to the land & Falls #1 and rapids.

Site Description

The Property offers +/-0.45 miles of frontage along the West Branch of the Oswegatchie River. The highlight of this river frontage is Falls #1, with its long stretch of rapids leading to the falls. Below the falls is a deep swirling eddy and pool. Hall & Bowman Creeks run through the land, each with a wetland habitat paralleling their flowage.

Timber

The hardwood resource was harvested +/-2020 with the pine thinned at the same time, resulting in a lower stocked forest resource with total timber value near $69,000. Species composition is dominated by red/white pine, Maples and hemlock.
