Welcome to a special spot in the NEK! Located within minutes of Craftsbury Outdoor Center, the famous Craftsbury & Albany General Stores, Irasburg village, Parker Pie in Glover, & I-91 in Barton, this mainly open property sits off a quiet town road, surrounded by preserved farmland & maple sugar forests, yet accessible to the best of recreation, farms, food, community & culture. To top it off, views from the two potential dwelling sites are heavenly, reaching up into Canada with barely a house in sight. A year-round stream is fed by one of the most productive mountain springs in the area. The land is currently used for grazing draft horses & cows, & hay production. Views open up as you enter the property & proceed across the stream, climbing a gentle slope to the top of the pasture. Possible dwelling locations look North, across the main pastures, with ample southerly, easterly & westerly sun exposure, ideal for off-grid solar power. A dug well produces potable water. Covering 14 surveyed acres, it is defined by old rock walls & town road, & includes roughly 10A of pasture/hayfield, along with 2A "knoll" pasture accessed by gravel spur driveway of its own. This provides a second possible building site, with privacy assured by a swale of rare Black ash trees & woodcock habitat. State-approved 3BR septic plan can be modified to accommodate a second dwelling, allowing for multi-family or family farmstead. Cell service is outstanding. Power pole at road.
