Lot 7 on Reichert Road isn’t the kind of property that shouts for attention. It doesn’t need to. It sits quietly in Lake Peekskill, confident in what it offers to someone who understands land—not just as acreage, but as opportunity. At 2.47 acres, this parcel does something rare in the LP Zone: it meets the zoning requirement head-on. Two acres are required to build here, and Lot 7 clears that threshold with room to breathe. There’s no guesswork, no “almost,” no immediate need to chase a variance before you even begin imagining a home. The land works with you, not against you. What truly sets this property apart is its 695 feet of road frontage along Reichert Road. That kind of frontage changes the conversation. It offers flexibility in siting a home, allows for privacy through thoughtful setbacks, and gives the property a presence that smaller, tighter parcels simply can’t match. Whether you envision a long, winding driveway or multiple design options to take advantage of the terrain, the frontage provides choices—and in land, choices are everything. But Lake Peekskill is never just about the dirt beneath your boots. It’s about lifestyle, and this lot includes deeded lake rights—an increasingly scarce asset in this area. That means access to the lake not as a guest, not as a favor, but as a right attached to the land itself. Morning paddles, quiet afternoons by the water, and the simple luxury of knowing the lake is part of your daily environment all come baked into the deed. The LP Zone carries a character all its own. Homes are spaced, nature is respected, and the neighborhood retains a sense of calm that feels increasingly hard to find. This isn’t a subdivision squeezed to the margins of zoning codes. It’s a setting where landowners value space, trees, and the long view—both literally and figuratively. Lot 7 is the kind of property buyers often miss because it isn’t flashy on first glance. But walk it. Stand at the road. Picture how 695 feet of frontage feels. Consider what it means to own a compliant buildable lot with lake rights in a community where those pieces rarely line up so cleanly. Some properties sell because of what’s already built. Others sell because of what they make possible. Lot 7 on Reichert Road belongs firmly in the second category—a quiet, confident piece of Lake Peekskill that’s ready for its next chapter.

Lots 18 & 19 on Tanglewylde Road are two adjoining parcels being sold together as one rare opportunity in Lake Peekskill, New York. Zoned LP, these lots provide the chance to build in a community that values privacy, open space, and lakeside living.

The natural topography, mature trees, and gentle slopes provide multiple options for siting a home, maximizing privacy, and taking advantage of sunlight and views. With lake rights to Lake Peekskill, residents gain access to water recreation, from boating to fishing, without living directly on the shoreline, giving the feeling of lakeside living while preserving a quiet, secluded setting. Tanglewylde Road itself is a peaceful, lightly traveled street, enhancing the sense of retreat while keeping you connected to the surrounding community, amenities, and regional routes. These two lots together create a unique opportunity in Lake Peekskill, offering flexibility, privacy, and potential that single lots rarely provide.

Step inside and you're greeted by a graceful dining room that flows naturally into a spacious eat-in kitchen, creating a warm place for everything from holiday meals to quiet mornings with coffee. Just beyond is a sizable living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and connected to a sun-filled enclosed porch where walls of windows overlook the spectacular property through every season. The main level also offers a versatile den that has comfortably served as a guest room and third sleeping area for years, but would make an equally wonderful home office or study. A full bath completes the first floor. Upstairs are two generously sized bedrooms, each ready for a fresh vision. While the home could use cosmetic updating, the character, craftsmanship, and solid bones are already here. Downstairs, the possibilities continue. The expansive basement stretches nearly the full length of the home and already includes a half bath with the potential to become a second full bath, offering an incredible opportunity to create more than 2,000 square feet of finished living space. A charming root cellar connected to the garage provides unique storage for wine, preserves, or seasonal items, while thoughtful built-ins and tucked-away storage spaces throughout the home add charm and practicality. Outside is where this property truly stands apart. Whether you're gardening, entertaining, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings, this yard offers a setting that's becoming increasingly difficult to find. With a garage and abundant parking, there's room to host, relax, and enjoy every season. Just minutes from the lake, you can spend your days kayaking, canoeing, fishing, or enjoying the beach before heading home to relax outdoors.

Tucked along Traverse Road in the Lake Peekskill community, Lot 20 offers a rare opportunity to own vacant land with lake rights in one of northern Westchester’s most established lake neighborhoods. The parcel measures approximately .20 acres and features about 62 feet of road frontage, providing direct access and a clear physical presence along the street. The property is located within the LP (Lake Peekskill) zoning district, where a minimum of 2 acres is required to build without a variance. As such, this lot has no existing approvals and would require zoning relief for residential development. It is being offered as a project for a buyer who understands the realities of land, due diligence, and the local approval process. What makes this parcel compelling is not just the land itself, but the lake rights to Lake Peekskill—a highly desirable amenity that adds lifestyle and long-term value. Residents enjoy access to swimming, boating, and the sense of community that lake living provides, something that cannot be recreated or expanded over time. Lake rights in this area are finite, and vacant parcels that include them are increasingly difficult to find. Surrounded by established homes and mature surroundings, the setting reflects the character and charm that has made Lake Peekskill a sought-after destination for both full-time residents and weekend homeowners. The location offers a balance of quiet living with convenient access to major roadways, nearby towns, and Metro-North. This is not a turnkey building lot, but rather an opportunity rooted in vision and potential. For a buyer willing to engage with the zoning process, explore design options, and invest in thoughtful planning, Lot 20 Traverse Road represents a chance to secure land with lake access in a community where opportunities like this are becoming increasingly scarce.
