Two tax map parcels totaling 1,330 contiguous acres across the Towns of Clinton and Mooers, Clinton County, in far northern New York near the Canadian border, roughly 395 acres in Mooers and 935 acres in Clinton, centered on a private 20-acre lake, Lake Alex, and Lodge Pond, plus numerous smaller ponds, streams, and springs laced with trails supporting fishing, paddling, waterfowl hunting, and upland hunting, with established shooting lanes up to 300 yards and elevated blinds already in place. The forest is almost entirely hardwood, dominated by maple with a meaningful cherry component, once home to a 10,000-plus tap maple lease, and well positioned for long-term timber appreciation. Private, gated access at the terminus of Drown Road plus additional deeded access off Soucia Road reach every corner of the estate, which borders 603 acres of state land at The Gulf Unique Area, a protected glacial gorge, and sits roughly 45 minutes from Plattsburgh and 1.5 hours from Montreal. At the center of it all stands the Churubusco Lodge, a 19th century hand-hewn timber frame carrying a genuine provenance rarely found in a structure like this, having originally stood on the owner's Vermont farm before being dismantled piece by piece, transported, and reassembled on the shore of Lodge Pond, where it now sits on a modern foundation with a full basement, its original hand-hewn timbers exposed beneath 27-foot clear-span ceilings, joined to an 18x38 rustic hunting camp, finished in board-and-batten siding over rigid insulation, and powered off-grid by an expandable photovoltaic system, offering immediate livability while long-term plans for the larger tract are developed, equally suited to secluded waterfront development, conservation organizations, and family buyers seeking a legacy property.
