About this home
PERMITS IN PLACE AND READY TO BUILD! An exceptionally rare find located just five minutes outside Montpelier and set on 129.7 acres of quintessential Vermont landscape. A cleared, sunny, south-facing hilltop homesite offers long-range mountain views, a remarkable degree of privacy, and excellent solar potential and gardening opportunities for a future owner. An approved zoning/build permit is in place for a single-family home, garage, and shed at this location, along with an approved well and wastewater permit. A substantial driveway has already been installed to the homesite, with more than half currently graveled. Additional existing improvements include an RV parking area with 200-amp electrical service and a concrete spring well, with a water supply line and frost-free hydrant run to an existing pump shed. The surrounding land features a year-round stream, pond, trails, and extensive wooded acreage. Deer, turkey, bear, and moose are regularly seen on the property, while cranes and ducks frequent the pond, offering excellent opportunities for hunting and wildlife enjoyment. The property was partially logged in 2018 and is not enrolled in Vermont’s Current Use program, offering added flexibility for a future owner. Access is provided by a deeded shared private right-of-way. A 2018 survey, approved site plan, and supporting permit documents are available for review.
Designated homesite accessible by a right-of-way (ROW)
