Bordering protected New York City Department of Environmental Protection (NYC DEP) land along the full length of its rear property line, this exceptional property offers unmatched privacy with permanently preserved open space beyond your backyard. The peaceful setting is home to abundant wildlife, including bald eagles soaring over the reservoir, creating a truly remarkable connection to nature.
