Description
Discover an incredible 372.6 +/- acre recreational retreat in Lowell, VT, nestled against conserved land near the peak of Belvidere Mountain. Journey along a half-mile access road - easily navigable by 4x4 or ATV from the paved, town-maintained Mines Road - to a private 0.28 +/- acre clearing. Across this truly expansive property, you'll find ample opportunity to design a custom off-grid home, establish a seasonal camp, or create a wilderness sanctuary. This is a premier haven for backcountry skiers, hikers, hunters, and anyone seeking complete off-grid independence. Featuring a gentle to moderate sloping topography, the forestland boasts a beautiful hardwood canopy, year-round streams, abundant wildlife, and an old logging network ready to be reclaimed into a private trail system. Endless adventure awaits just 1,500 feet from the western boundary, where the Green Mountain Club’s Forester’s Trail connects to the Long Trail and the Belvidere Mountain fire tower. For more recreation, world-class skiing at Jay Peak Resort is just a short drive away. The hardwoods throughout the acreage may also offer some potential for future sugaring for those looking to explore the possibility. Access is secured via a short, deeded right-of-way. The property abuts a discontinued short-strain asbestos mine; however, the land naturally slopes downward toward the mine, positioning this parcel upstream and topographically above the site. Additional documentation is available, and the provided address is for GPS purposes only. Bring your vision to life in this beautiful Vermont off-grid paradise!
