244 mountain road

This 2 plus acre WATERFRONT building lot is perched on the banks of the Connecticut River and offers outstanding views of the river to the south and hills of VT to the west. It has many of the most sought-after attributes for those of us who appreciate privacy and natural beauty. Located at the absolute end of a town-maintained gravel road, this is truly a special spot. The property has outstanding south and west exposure and directly abuts the 1,000-acre Wantastiquet Mountain National Area/State Forest with hiking and recreational trails at your doorstep. There is a permitted gravel driveway into the level building area and additional loads of gravel on site to be used to extend the road to the new house. Complete site plan with a septic design for a 5-bedroom dwelling has been done and approved. Also has a boat dock permit and an old staircase down the embankment to a boat dock location but is unsafe and needs to be replaced. The forest is comprised mostly of northern hardwood species like oak, maple and black birch with little undergrowth creating a park-like feel. Mountain Road continues past the property as a recreational trail that connects to the main trail system. The combination of owned water frontage, large adjacent conserved land, end of road privacy, southern exposure and ease of development makes this property very unique and quite rare. A fantastic opportunity to create an unbelievable place to live.
