1045 Covered Bridge Rd - Riverfront – 43AC Mixed-Use Development Site 43.02 Acres of Commercial Land Offered at $968,052 CAD in Unadilla, NY 13849

This offering represents a rare opportunity to acquire approximately 43.02± acres along the Susquehanna River at 1045 Covered Bridge Road in Unadilla, New York, positioned for commercial, recreational, and mixed-use development. The property combines usable open land, gently rolling topography, mature woods, a pond, and river access, creating a versatile canvas for future improvements. Existing residential and ancillary structures provide immediate utility and potential holding income while a buyer pursues entitlements, design, and long-term development plans.
The site is located within convenient reach of Interstate 88, providing regional access to Oneonta, Binghamton, Cooperstown, and the broader Southern Tier. This corridor is seeing increased interest from users and investors seeking affordable land with outdoor-recreation appeal, second-home demand, and tourism-driven traffic. The riverfront setting, views, and natural features make the property suitable for a range of concepts such as resort or lodge use, hospitality, campground or RV park, glamping, event venue, wellness retreat, recreational business, or a mixed-use compound. Buyer is responsible for confirming all uses and densities with the Town and applicable agencies.
On-site improvements currently include a double-wide manufactured home, a large detached garage/workshop building, and multiple smaller outbuildings that can serve as storage, shop, office, or staging space. These improvements may support an owner-user or caretaker presence during planning and construction, or be repurposed as part of a value-add strategy. Existing driveways, cleared yards, and utility connections help reduce some upfront development costs compared with unimproved raw land. All building details, square footages, and systems should be independently verified by purchaser.
Topography includes mostly usable areas with a mix of open pasture-type fields and tree lines that provide privacy, screening, and visual character. Portions of the property are adjacent to or near the river, pond, and low-lying areas; as with most riverfront holdings, there may be floodplain or wetland conditions that affect buildable envelopes, insurance requirements, and design. Prospective buyers should conduct their own due diligence, including but not limited to: survey review, updated boundary and topographic survey, wetlands and environmental studies, floodplain and insurance analysis, geotechnical review, and consultation with land-use counsel, engineers, and planning officials.

All information provided in marketing materials, online listings, and verbal or written communications is believed to be from reliable sources but is not guaranteed and may be incomplete or subject to change without notice.
