Discover an extraordinary four-season recreational retreat in the heart of Vermont's Northeast Kingdom. This exceptional property offers the rare combination of privacy, expansive mature hardwood forest, direct access to outdoor adventure, and a comfortable 3-bedroom, 1-bath home. Set on approximately 88 acres, abutting both thousands of acres of public land and Jay Peak Resort, this property is a true playground for outdoor enthusiasts. Step beyond your doorstep and into a landscape made for adventure by owning your own hill and ridgeline. Ski your own backcountry powder paradise right from your backdoor, explore miles of hiking terrain, or take advantage of the VAST snowmobile network right in the backyard. The Long Trail is also less than a mile away. The mature hardwood forest offers more than just beautiful scenery and privacy-it provides an established maple sugaring opportunity. The 1,067-square-foot home features 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom and was built in 1997. Major upgrades were completed in 2024, offering an improved and refreshed retreat while preserving its appeal as a low-key mountain getaway. Turn-key. Whether you're looking for a private Vermont escape, a four-season recreational property, a basecamp for Jay Peak adventures, or a place to enjoy skiing, snowmobiling, hiking, hunting, sugaring, and the solitude of the woods, this property delivers an unusually compelling combination of location and land.
