Mature hardwoods, including a large maple grove. 20 minutes from Grace Cottage Hospital 30 minutes from Brattleboro Memorial Hospital 18 minutes from Mount Snow 12 minutes from family owned farmstand which is practically a grocery store Road plowed by the town! Tons of natural resources – firewood, timber, sugaring, stones Stone walls border the road and define parcel boundaries Surveyed at least 1984, markers still visible Foundation stabilized Dec 2019 Dirt crawlspace below house insulated and vinyl coated Dec 2019 800 acre parcel behind is current-use forested land, timbered every 30 years. Last timbered 15 years ago. (No neighbors behind you!) Bad bits: House sold “as-is” Previous owner left trash. Drinking water radon levels high – will need air-bubble or other radon filter. Needs partial roof replacement. Water damage and mold visible. Water damage to foundation: cracks, but no structural shifting. Timbering access road to 800 acre parcel behind – 2 acres owned by Newfane village to maintain access road. So technically only 27 acres available to develop. (Access road not close to house.) 4WD or AWD vehicles a must. Stratton Hill is dirt and difficult in winter and mud season. No mail box, but PO BOX in Williamsville is free to compensate. Great to parcel up and sell lots. Keep 15 acres for yourself and enjoy your homesteading dreams.
