"
THE PROPERTY
ATTRIBUTES:
The below is supplied by the
owner of the Peacedale Property for your information. The proposed Peacedale
Village development encompasses approximately 300 acres owned by 5 individual
owners who have commissioned a master plan that conceptually has been
constructed by Brewer Engineering of East Greenbush New York. They are
designing the properties around a comprehensive traffic and infrastructure
plan, as well as projected placement of residential, commercial and some clean
light industrial uses in appropriate areas.
- Located in the precise
center of the Northeast. Approximately 15 miles south east of the State Capital
of New York.
- Located on a major double
interstate 1-87- and I-90
- Approximate population
within a 1 hours drive, 5,000,000
- Approximate population
within a 15 minute drive, dead center of 5 affluent rural Townships Schodack,
Kinderhook, the Chathams, Southern areas of East Greenbush and Stuyvesant,
100,000 plus
- Present owner owns
approximately 1/3, 100 acres of the 300 acre envelope. We have carved out a 63
acre parcel that resides on one deed, as well as a 4+ acres parcel and a 30
Acre parcel. We are marketing this 63 acres as a starter commitment to reduce
the upfront costs of a developer, but yet this commitment after a generous
study period will in fact virtually lock in the entire 300 acre envelope. The
master plan developed conceptually approved by DOT as well as the demands of
the Town as it relates to the planned development zoning that the envelope
resides in. The 63 acre ownership controls access to the other 200 plus plus
acres because the 63 acres fronts most of the other property therefore a
developer that controls the 63 acres essentially controls the 300 therefore
avoiding land costs until they have hard commitments sewed up.
- A developer with a track
record will be considered regarding a cost free initial commitment for a
generous period of time, 18 months to 2 years with an option period to follow.
We do not expect a developer to purchase any of the property until they are
assured of the viability. A due diligence agreement will be expected from the
developer during this period and to be negotiated.
- The 300 acre envelope is
separated from the balance of the Town and residential opposition.
- NYS DOT studies have been
made and basic road accesses have been established regarding access distances
for traffic control. These studies have assisted Brewer Engineering to create a
tentative master plan of the entire 300 acres. Available on request.
- The Town of Schodack in a
previous master plan has designated a location on the envelope in one of the
highest locations in the Town and area for a Town Water tank somewhere in the
neighborhood of 500,000 gallons.
- Preliminary studies by a
prominent capital district engineering firm that have been made regarding the
use of an approximately 10 acre area on the northwest lower part of the
property for a low cost sewage gray water area, using on site septic with the
possibility of a package sewer plant in the future.
- There are 3 rental sources
on the property, a commercial building on the road, an 8 unit apartment house
as well as a residence that would generate income to carry the property. There
could be 25 gs to 35 net income. Increased taxes would not kick in for years as
title will not pass immediately.
- To the south of the 300 acre
envelope is approximately a 500 acre piece of land owned by Japanese. We
believe it is referred to as the Kinderhook Country club. They have built an 18
hole private golf course with plans for another 18. We believe that this golf
course will be planned around residences. We believe they would join the 300
acre envelope effort in some way if approached as the major water storage would
be an attraction to them and give them the ability to increase on site lot
density.
- A previous interest Charles
Louria, Capital Development had an option on a portion of the envelope that
included all of our property and our neighbor to the south west. They spent a
great deal of capital preparing the property, wet land studies, placement of
the various commercial uses etc. using the services of CT Male. These studies
and plans are available. The project was presented to Wall-Mart and
Lowes, but lost out to a decision to expand a existing facility
approximately 20 miles to the south of Peacedale in Hudson N.Y.
- On our property maps you
will see Peacedale Road that could be used in a development. There is a large
power dedication 13.2 Kv as well as optical cable on this road. The cost of
these attributes along with the construction of the road if it is to be
retained would go into the hundreds of thousands of dollars and some estimates
for these improvement have been a million dollars or more.
- Total municipal road
frontage. There is approximately 3,000 lineal feet of road frontage on Route 9.
There is approximately 3,000 lineal feet of road frontage on the Peacedale Town
Road that bisects the middle of the property on the west side of the Rt. 9. Now
both of these roads are times two as the frontage is on both sides,
consequently the 6,000 ft. times two is 12,000 lineal feet. Add to this the
approximately 4,000 ft. one side across from the golf course on Rt. 32. This
gives the envelope a grand total of approximately 16,000 lineal feet of road
frontage translated into 3 miles.
- Conservation easement
potential.
- Owner cooperation regarding
the timing of a 1031 need of the buyer.
- Area has attracted may
metropolitan second home buyer, since the 9-11 threat and most have considered
the general area as a sanctuary and safe area away from the potential of civil
unrest as we have recently witnessed in many place of the world as the
financial issues unravel.
- The approach visibility
factor as there is 5 vehicular approaches to the Peacedale property. There is
the one coming down I-90 before you exit at 12. There is the traffic going by
on the Berkshire Section going east and then there is the traffic going west
from the Mass Pike that either stays on the Berkshire section and continues
over the river on to the N.Y. Thruway and all three approaches have visibility
to the Peacedale property before, I am going to repeat this BEFORE exit and
with plenty of stopping distance to make the decision to exit. The other 2
approaches are on Route 9 in front of the property to make up the 5 vehicular
approaches.
- Price is open to
negotiation. Developers who are serious and are willing to spend some serious
due diligence and develop this property even if it is after I am long gone with
get an offer from us that they cannot refuse. Let me repeat we are not looking
for speculators to buy this property. We are looking for a developer that will
be serious about turning this area into a viable asset for the community.
