1.7 Acres

Jay, Vermont, 05859

Once in a while you set foot on a special place that just seems to have a magical aura, a definite connection to the earth that you can feel. This is one of those places. Grab your compass and walk straight into the woods towards the nearby Long Trail, North Jay, and on to Jay Peak 3 miles away. Imagine the backcountry ski adventure possibilities. The 1.7 acre parcel consists almost entirely of a manicured maple grove with 2 small clearings. Timberland and conserved property surround the land for miles in every direction. This is the only camp lot in the area and one of the closest to the top of the mountain pass. There is a small, mountain wizard cabin already existing on the property as well as a concrete pad that could be a good start to something more substantial. Many years ago the seller set out to dig a spring which turned into a small spring fed pond, possibly a portal to another world. Come explore and dream of the possibilities.

10.11 Acres

Sheffield, Vermont, 06359

Over ten acres of diverse mixed northern forest, open clearings that have been arranged with building sites in mind, and a quiet woodland stream tucked away under a green forest canopy. Old apple trees are scattered throughout what was once cleared land, ghosts of an earlier agricultural life now given entirely back to the wild. Stone walls trace the old boundaries, still doing their quiet work. The land is gently sloping towards the south and east with no difficult terrain. Sheffield has no local zoning. For the dreamer with an unconventional vision for a camp, cabin, or off-grid homestead, this is the kind of freedom that is hard to find. The VAST snowmobile trail runs through the property by landowner permission and an existing trail network makes it easy to access the entire length of the land. Come take a quiet walk in the woods and imagine what the next chapter may hold for this slice of Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom. No wastewater testing or permitting has been completed and power is 0.6 miles away.
