0 Carley Rd Springfield, VT 05156

One of the property’s attractive attributes is its gentle slopes and deep soils across most of the property. This allows for easy driveway, home and other development options. Well-drained soils predominate with occasional more poorly-drained pockets along seeps at the land’s central area, an ideal location for pond development. Aspect is most commonly to the west.   This region of Vermont has hundreds of years of land use history of which this property offers an outstanding example in its significant stone walls which delineate old pastures, cropland, roadways and foundations.   The land gently slopes uphill from the town road with elevation along the road at 580’ ASL (above sea level), rising to 1,000’ along the eastern boundary. This slight change in elevation indicates a mostly level property with little topographical relief from one end of the land to the other. The center of the land is nearly level, with modest slopes as the land rises in the east to nearby Pudding Hill.   Carley Brook has a modest watershed that originates several miles to the east. The brook runs year ‘round and is roughly 3-4 feet wide along its course.   From various potential building sites nice views to the west are possible with tree clearing. Access is via Carley Road, a Class 3, town-maintained road which ends a half mile beyond the land. Carley Road branches off Route 106 less then a mile from the property, making it easy traveling to town and points beyond.
