399 Bard Rd - Bennington

Escape to your own private sanctuary on this sprawling 54+/- acre wooded retreat in beautiful Bennington, VT. Nestled among a lush mix of hard and softwoods teeming with wildlife, the property features a charming quarter-acre pond situated entirely within its southeastern boundary, perfect as a future homestead centerpiece. Enjoy easy access via a paved, town-maintained road leading to level gravel frontage. A gate is currently in place, but the town will remove or relocate it upon request. Essential utilities are highly accessible: town water runs along the frontage with confirmed adequate pressure for development, while power and high-speed cable internet sit just 250 feet west. Though formal soil tests haven't been completed, State mapping indicates favorable conditions for a wastewater system, making this parcel an exceptional candidate for a private estate or a subdivision project. Experience the best of both worlds - a secluded, off-the-beaten-path atmosphere with immediate access to the Route 7 corridor. You are just minutes from historic downtown Bennington’s shops, dining, and the iconic Bennington Battle Monument. For outdoor lovers, enjoy close proximity to the Green Mountain National Forest and premier skiing at nearby Mount Snow and Stratton. Whether dreaming of an expansive recreational haven or a brilliant investment opportunity, this versatile acreage is ready for your vision.
