SITE DESCRIPTION

Both Lot 1 and Lot 2 are located directly on West Hill Road, and driveways could be installed using existing trails combined with some tree removal. There is electricity available on the road frontage for both parcels.

The land is slightly sloping, with Lot 1 starting at 1600 and rising to about 1720 at the top of the parcel. Lot 1 would have a driveway that comes off West Hill Road and potentially uses a skid trail that rises to the middle of that parcel. This location provides nice views, and Shatterack Mountain is the main focal point to the northeast.

Lot 2 has more road frontage and is larger than Lot 1. This lot is also about 1700 at its top boundary. Lot 2 also has an open logging road that could be used as a driveway to access the interior part of the parcel. Past logging has opened some of the terrain, but much of the land on both parcels are tree covered. Thinning some of these trees would expand the viewshed on

both properties.

These house sites are situated close to many outdoor recreation opportunities, such as skiing at Stratton, Bromley, and Magic Mountains. There is hiking available off Kelley Stand Road in the town of Stratton, with many trails, ponds, streams, and camping opportunities found in that wilderness area. Wildlife, including black bears, would be present, along with deer, moose, and many smaller animals that are native to that region of Vermont. If youre looking for land in Vermont that is close to the major urban areas in the Northeast, then one of these parcels may be for you.
