00 Benton Hollow

Down a quiet, unpaved stretch of Benton Hollow Road, just 10 minutes from the heart of Livingston Manor, this 8.56-acre parcel offers a rare blend of readiness and wildness. This is the kind of place where ideas can take shape beneath a canopy of maples and hemlocks, where the only sounds are birdsong and the distant hush of a wind moving through the hollow. The land is gently rolling, with dappled light and a roughed-in driveway already in place. Electric is available at the road, and recent perc tests are on file, so you can skip the red tape and start thinking about what you want to build. A modern cabin. A timber-frame retreat. A low-impact getaway that lets the landscape lead. Just a short drive away, Livingston Manor hums with small-town charm and creative energy. Start your morning with coffee and biscuits at The Walk In or a riverside sandwich from Main Street Farm. Browse the shelves at Upstream Wine, catch a live fire-pit set at The Kaatskeller, or book a dinner to remember at The DeBruce. And when the day is done, retreat back to the quiet of your own woods. Benton Hollow is the kind of place you don’t stumble on often. Build something lasting—or don’t build at all. Either way, the space is yours. Conveniently located less than two hours from NYC, yet worlds away.
