Property Description

Imagine summer gatherings “at the lake.” Listen to the squeals of joy as float-raft splash battles rage, and the smells of savory roasting BBQ wafts through the air. Or, as the temperature cools, take in the turning foliage, and the approaching hunting season. Better still, harvest (for profit or pies) 2+ acres of cultivated BLUEBERRY bushes (600+ bushes), with the largest berries your eyes have ever seen.

Welcome to Braymer Lake.

This exceptional private lake retreat sits on 189 tax advantaged acres of magical land, offering the perfect combination of tranquility and adventure. With stone walls, wooded groves, open fields, and miles of trails to explore, this is the place where vacation memories are made. The tax advantage comes from being over 106 acres subscribed to the NYS 480A Forestry program.

At the heart of the property is a gorgeous 2.6-acre private lake. Stocked with trout, perch and bass, the anglers in your life may never want to leave the water. With a recently updated and DEC approved dam and spillway, you’ll have few worries for your future generations. The lake is an amazing shape that provides great boating, paddle boarding and swimming… AND fishing!

The spacious 5-bedroom 2.5-bathroom home has been a family gathering spot for multiples of generations dating back through the 1970’s. A kitchen on the main floor (gas stove & dual oven, dishwasher), AND a second “party kitchen” on the ground floor (electric stove & dual oven, dishwasher) mean you’ll never have a problem feeding your personal masses. This structure has served many, and is ready for your personal touch. The main floor is heated with a propane fire hot air furnace, which may never be needed if you fire up the cast-iron wood-burning stove on the ground level. Along with the 2^nd kitchen and wood stove, this level has a newer washer and dryer, plus a half bath. Dual doors and lots of windows open onto the lower-level patio area and dock just 50 feet away. Hammocks, lawn chairs, and even volleyball await.

Trails fan out across the land providing access to two additional ponds (stocked), perfect for fishing or simply enjoying the serene surroundings. ATV or hike the property and enjoy the wonders of a wooded Catskill forest – think great hunting. AND if you have dreamed of growing your own fresh blueberries, this is THE PLACE, with over 600 cultivated bushes ( different varietals), ensuring you have ample produce at your fingertips for a commercial venture, if you choose.

Take in everything that vacation means on your own private retreat. Just sitting on the deck that overlooks that picturesque lake makes for a perfect relaxing experience.

This property presents endless possibilities for gatherings that build bonding, outdoor fun, and the ultimate escape from modern chaos. 10 Minutes from Delhi and 20 to Oneonta, and under 3 hours from the GWB, Braymer lake is your new Catskill destination. Don’t miss your chance to make this serene retreat your own!
