0 W County Rd Woodbury, VT 05681

The forest is situated in north-central Vermont within the town of Woodbury, a primarily forested region that sits between Route 14 to the east, Route 12 to the west and Route 15 to the north. While forestland dominates the landscape here, widely scattered homes occur along the gravel roads that traverse this area. The location is known for its many small lakes and ponds (eleven such waterbodies sit near the property). Maple Corner, a small hamlet within the Town of Calais and popular with summer residences and day tourists, is 3 miles to the south along West County Road and host to Maple Corner Store, historic Community Center and post office. Montpelier, Vermont is 12 miles to the south along West County Road. Hardwick Village is 8 miles to the north. Burlington is a 1-hour drive to the west, while Boston is a 3-hour drive to the southeast. Locally, Woodbury Mountain Campground is adjacent to the ownership. Access is provided by 4,950’ of frontage along West County Road, a graveled town road that originates off Main Street in Montpelier and runs north to Route 14 just south of Hardwick. An established driveway, located roughly midway along the road frontage, is the beginning of a narrow internal road. This road leads to an early 19th-century homestead which today has a small clearing and cellar hole from the former home and barn. From this location, very old logging trails from the 1960s run throughout the land. Other points of access directly along West County Road also appear to exist. The property’s terrain is mostly steep, but with level to moderately sloping benches at various locations throughout the forest. Terrain rises steadily from the road frontage to the land’s western boundary (so all of the land slopes to the road frontage). This sloping terrain provides highly-drained soils which are ideal for the northern hardwood forest type that makes up the forest resource. Potential home or camp sites may be possible at the old farm site
