• Acreage 25

A rare recreational and outdoorsman's oasis awaits on this 25 +/- acre parcel just beyond Mount Snow in the skiing destination town of Stratton, Vermont! Offering a multitude of opportunities for use, the parcel features a rolling topography with mostly hardwoods, a VAST trail for greater enjoyment in the winter months, and a babbling brook. Access to the parcel is provided via a 50' right-of-way along a VAST trail that extends approximately 8000' from the nearest public road, Far Beyond Road. Neighboring landowners currently enjoy their land as secluded, yet close to town, recreational camps surrounded by woodland. An abundance of wildlife signs are seen throughout the parcel, making this the perfect place for a hunting camp. The parcel is located within the residential zoning district, offering permitted uses such as agriculture, forestry, conservation, and single-family dwellings, among others. We understand that gorgeous views were once enjoyed by the seller on the more elevated acres of the property overlooking Somerset Reservoir, wetlands, and Mount Snow. The VAST trail is maintained and groomed by the local VAST club, Deerfield Valley Stump Jumpers. Per VAST, landowners are allowed access to the trail to access their property year-round, non-landowners who are members of one of their local clubs may use the trails only during winter months, and landowners who allow the VAST trail on their property have liability protection by the Vermont legislature.
