55.9 Acres for Sale in Norwood, New York

55.9 Wooded Acres on the Rutland Trail

This is hunting ground. Fifty-five and nine tenths acres of wooded and wetland cover on the outskirts of Norwood, sitting alongside the railroad, priced at almost exactly $1,000 an acre.

The Rutland Trail runs to the property, reachable from Townline Road, Pine Street or Depot Street. It suits hunting and camping and the kind of use that wants cover and quiet rather than a cleared building pad.

Taxes were $210.46 for 2026. The financing is straightforward: $20,000 down against the $55,900 price leaves $35,900 financed at 12% APR over five years, at roughly $800 a month, with no penalty for paying it off early.

Before you buy this parcel

This is wet ground. Much of the parcel is swampland, which is what makes it good cover for game and poor ground for building. Wetland of this kind commonly falls under New York State DEC freshwater wetland rules and may also fall under US Army Corps jurisdiction, both of which restrict filling, draining and construction. Check the wetland mapping and any permit requirements for your intended use before you close.

This parcel needs an easement. Access is physically available from the Rutland Trail, but a legal easement is not in place. Buyers should speak with neighbouring owners or consult legal counsel about an easement of necessity before closing. The price reflects that this work is outstanding.

Mineral, gas and water rights have not been established for this parcel. No mineral examination has been made. Do not assume any of them are included; have the record searched before you close.

Owner financing $20,000 down, $35,900 financed at 12% APR over five years, about $800 a month. No prepayment penalty.
