Introduction
The Cotswold Hill Parcels are five separate surveyed house sites located off West Hill Road in Jamaica, VT. These high elevation properties have some views toward Bromley Mountain to the west and toward Magic Mountain to the east. The views from these sites could be expanded with some tree thinning.

Essex County - Victory Road, Victory, VT
Property Overview
Umpire Brook Forest is ideally suited for the recreational buyer, interested in a secluded camp property close to amenities including Burke Mountain, Kingdom Trails, and thousands of acres of publicly-accessible hunting and fishing land. The property has road frontage on Victory Road, a public class 3 highway connecting Burke and Guildhall. While no power is available on this stretch of the road, ample opportunities for off-grid camp building can be found on the property. The Portland Pipeline (no longer in service) runs through the property and now serves as an important Vast trail for the region.
Location
The property is located deep in the heart of the Northeast Kingdom, yet it is just a short drive from the bustling recreational hub of Burke. The Burke/Victory town line forms the western boundary of the property. To the north lie Kingdom Heritage Conservation Lands, which are protected by a conservation easement that allows public access for hunting, fishing, and other recreational activities. To the south, the property is bordered by the expansive Victory State Forest.
Burke, Vermont, is located approximately a 5 to 10 minute drive west. In Burke, buyers will discover the Burke Mountain Resort, a smaller, local mountain offering classic Vermont alpine skiing with big mountain amenities. Also located in Burke are the iconic Kingdom Trails, which offer Vermont's highest quality mountain biking opportunities in the summer months.
The surrounding landscape to the north, south, and east is primarily forested and owned by various large forest landowners. The Moose River, a popular trout fishing destination, is located to the southeast on the Victory Basin Wma.
Access
Access to the property is available via Victory Road, a publicly maintained Class-3 road that connects Burke and Guildhall, VT. The property spans both the north and south sides of this road, providing approximately 1,700 feet of road frontage.
On the south side, a small driveway leads to the Portland Pipeline Right-of-Way (Row). To the north, a woods road leads to an old log landing, which could serve as a potential site for a camp.
Additionally, there are wood trails that wind through the forest, showcasing remnants of past logging operations.
Property Description
The land is mildly to moderately sloping, with aspects to the south. From the Victory Road, which bisects the land east-west, a southerly walk will reveal a moderately sloping hillside with stepped ledges. The headwaters of Umpire Brook, which feed the Moose River, are found just to the south of the property boundary, along with some small wetlands. To the north of Victory Road, the terrain is mild to moderately sloping, rising to around 1,800' Asl. In this area, some exposed ledges and rocks can be found.
The timber resource is generally young, having been logged around 25 years ago. The resulting forest is now found as smaller-diameter, mixed hardwood and some softwood, growing well and in a good position for future volume and value appreciation.
The Portland Pipeline runs through the property heading east-west. This discontinued pipeline formerly transported crude oil between Portland, ME, and Montreal, PQ. However, it now serves mostly as a Vast trail in the winter months. While no building can occur atop the pipeline Row, this resource is available as direct access to the winter snowmobile trail system.
Suitable camp-building sites exist primarily on the northern side of Victory Road, where flatter slopes offer several potential sites for off-grid camps. No power is available in this stretch of Victory Road.

Orange County - 136 Territory Rd, Topsham, VT
90+/- Wooded acres in a beautifully remote but accessible area of Topsham, VT. The property is surrounded to the West & North by 700+ acres of conserved land. The property features wonderful mountain views. To access the views, the sellers, through great expense, have created a 4x4 truck road up to the height of the land & procured a Vermont State septic & well permit for a 3-bedroom residential home at the top of the property. Territory Road has direct access to both the VAST snowmobile and VASA ATV trail systems. There are multiple streams on the property, with August being a hot & dry VT month, the streams appeared to remain flowing well & are 68 ft wide. There is a very good trail system on the lot, private to this property only, allowing access by foot or ATV to most of the acreage. It appears that the property was logged about 5+ years ago taking sawlogs down to about 10+. The forest appears to be mostly Sugar & Red Maple offering a lot of opportunity for a homesteader. There are two log landings by the road, one north, & one south. These are perfect for bringing in a camper, a great shooting range, or putting in hunting food plots. This is an off-grid property with power over 1 mile away. Territory Road is a Class 3 & plowed by the town up to the southern log landing & is in excellent shape up to the north landing then becomes much rougher. A great spot for a hunting retreat or get-a-way. Property IS NOT in VT Current Use. No Zoning.

Addison County - 290 Ferson Rd, Leicester, VT
55+/- Acre hunting or recreational property in desirable Addison County Vermont. Located on a town-maintained road in the small farming community of Leicester, VT. We believe this is best suited for the dedicated hunter. The front of the property drops away from the road into wetlands with a stream and some open water. To either side of this low area, the property is elevated adjacent to farm fields. On the eastern edge there is enough room to walk or with a little clearing ATV past the low wetlands to the rear of the property. We do not believe you could put in a driveway for a home because of wetlands and buffers but you may be able to do a small cabin that you can walk or ATV to in the rear. According to State ANR mapping, approx. 19 acres throughout the property is not classified as wetlands. The back of the property that is classified as wetlands is the type of wet forest you can travel through, perfect for deer stands and stalking. Deer appear to travel through the front neck area between farm fields, a great spot for a central elevated deer blind or edge blinds watching deer pass through. There is a spot to park on the road frontage with a cleared area for 2+ cars. Power and internet just off the frontage in case you put a camper close to the road. This is an inexpensive property for hunting, camping, biking, walking and just loving nature.

Chittenden County - Green Mountain Road, Bolton, VT
Introduction
82 Crag Forest's best use is as a significant recreational resource, as well as conservation, and potential timber use, depending on a buyer's ability to establish legal access for those purposes.
Property highlights include:
Significant rock-climbing faces managed by Crag-Vt, a local rock-climbing group;
Scenic landscape that includes a significant peak and views of Camel's Hump;
VAST trails and Catamount Trails running through the property;
Mature hardwood timber resource with an estimated value of $143,100;
Rare natural communities including a Red Pine Natural Community and large vernal pool.
Location
The property is located in central Bolton, a rural town in close proximity to Interstate 89, well-known for it's significant recreational opportunities. Bolton Valley Ski Resort is located just a few miles north of the property, as well as the expansive Mount Mansfield State Forest and associated hiking and backcountry ski areas. The property is landlocked, accessible by foot through the Crag-Vt property to the south, which separates the land from major highways such as Route 2 and Interstate 89.
The property is located squarely in the Green Mountains, a portion of the Appalachian Mountains extending south from Massachusetts and terminating in Canada near Richford, Vermont. This particular area of the mountain range contains some of the state's highest peaks, including Mount Mansfield, Camel's Hump, and Hunger Mountain. This mountainous region is characterized by small hamlets and rural towns connected by State/Town roads, and contains some of the states most productive hardwood and softwood forests, as well as unique high-elevation natural communities.
The property is found approximately 25 miles from Burlington, Vermont's largest city and cultural center, and approximately 7 miles from Waterbury, the nearest city containing amenities and services.
Access
The property is landlocked, a term used to describe a property that has no direct access to a public road. Access to the property by foot is approachable from the south, where a parking area and trailhead has been established off Us-2 by Crag-Vt, or from Green Mountain Drive, where a similar parking area exists. From these points, foot trails can be found that lead to the property. A map of the property access points is found in this report.
The Catamount Trail system also leads through the property, heading east-west, providing additional access points from the Bolton Valley Access Road. In the winter months, Vast snowmobile trails traverse the property.
Access for timber harvesting in the past has been accomplished via temporary crossing agreements with neighbors to the south. Legal access for vehicles would need to be established by negotiating a deeded or legal Right-of-Way to the property.
Site Description & Timber Resource
The property is generally high-elevation, ranging from 1,000' ASL (above sea level) to 1,600' ASL at the highest point. Behind the land to the north, the land becomes significantly more steep as it rises to form Woodward and Ricker Mountains. Despite this, the property is generally formed by moderate slopes containing upland hardwood timber, represented by mature red and sugar maple, yellow birch, beech and some ash. These upland slopes may once have even been pastureland, however this use would have been stopped and the land reverted to forest around 120 years ago.
The property is characterized by a tall peak, which drops off precipitously to the south, forming large cliff faces. In this area, rocky outcrops can be found with alpine vegetation, with one forming an excellent lookout point to Bolton Valley and Interstate 89. Streams and water features can also be found through small intermittent and headwater streams.
The property contains several natural features which are considered rare communities. The forest features a large vernal pool in the central region, a significant breeding ground for various amphibians, as well as a temperate acidic cliff of local significance. Soil quality is generally good to excellent and well-drained, featuring Lyman and Marlow-series loams as well as rock-outcrop complexes found on high-elevation slopes. In some areas, large glacial erratics can be found littering the forest floor. The slopes are not significant to hamper logging or sugaring on the property, and most areas are operable save for the steep rock outcrops.
Recreational
The property represents an important recreational and cultural resource for the community. The 2008 Conservation Easement encumbering the property provides for non-motorized, non-commercial, dispersed uses by the public. The main uses of the property currently are summarized below.
Rock Climbing:
CRAG-VT (Climbing Resource Access Group of Vermont) maintains cliff faces on the property, including the 82 Crag, the Yawn Wall, and the Chapel Crag. These faces were secured for their use via the conservation easement in 2008. Crag-Vt is a non-profit organization that supports Vermont's climbing community by securing, protecting & conserving access to cliffs and other climbing resources. Access to these faces is found from the Bolton Quarry parking lot south of the property.
Snowmobiling:
VAST (Vermont Association of Snow Travelers) and the local snowmobiling club, the Green Mountain Roamers, maintain a winter trail through the property running east-west. Funding for trail maintenance comes from membership fees and state funding, resulting in no maintenance costs to the owner. This trail connects Bolton Valley Resort to Waterbury Center, as well as trails through the expansive Mount Mansfield State forest. Snowmobiling is an important economic driver for the state of Vermont, bringing in an estimated $500 million for the state yearly, in addition to being a popular winter activity for many locals.
Catamount Trail:
The CTA (Catamount Trails Association) maintains over 300 miles of backcountry ski trails, running the length of Vermont from Massachusetts to Quebec. Completed in 2007, this continuous trail is the longest backcountry ski trail in North America. The trail runs east-west through the northern region of the property.
Conservation Easement
The conservation easement on the property is held by the State of Vermont Agency of Natural Resources. The easement was executed in 2008 to protect valuable recreational resources on the property, as well as protect rare natural communities. Additionally, the easement seeks to foster responsible management of the forest resource through sustainable forestry practices, including maple sugaring.
Easement highlights include:
Most sustainable and traditional forestry and sugarbush activities are permitted to support the long-term stewardship of the protected property;

Orange County - Powder Spring Road, Topsham, VT
The property features opportunities to take over an attractive, long-term investment, which has been well-managed over time for high-quality northern hardwood timber. Potential building sites can also be easily found throughout the land.
Notable highlights include:
- Managed timber resource, well-positioned for future volume and value growth;
- Sugar maple-dominated timber resource worth around $579,300;
- Sugarbush management and development potential, owing to 40% stocking of sugar maple and excellent slopes;
- Developed internal forest road access;
- Desirable location in central Vermont, close to population centers such as Barre and Montpelier, and close to Interstate 91.
Location
Powder Spring Forest is located in north Topsham, Vermont, a rural town in Orange County mostly consisting of forested acreage, farms, and small homesteads. The town is situated just east of the Green Mountains and west of the Connecticut River Valley, characterized by rolling hillslopes and many rivers, including the Waits, which drains east into the Connecticut River, and the Powder Spring brook, from which this forest gets its name.
While Topsham exemplifies the character of rural Vermont, with its peaceful ambiance and quaint rural character, the town and the subject property are easily connected to local population centers and amenities. Vermont Route 25 and U.S. Route 302 serve to connect Topsham with Barre to the northwest (25 miles away), Bradford (12 miles away to the southeast), and St. Johnsbury (31 miles northeast). In Bradford, there is access to Interstate 91, a major travel corridor connecting Vermont to Massachusetts and Canada, and in Barre, there is access to Interstate 89, connecting to major cities and cultural centers of Burlington, VT, and Manchester, NH. Boston, MA, and Hartford, CT, are a 3-hour drive south.
Access
Legal access to Powder Springs Forest is provided by several modes, including Town Class 3 & 4 roads and private access points.
Powder Spring Road provides a point of access to an old woods road that parallels the brook. This former roadway provides sufficient access to the lands extreme eastern slopes as they tilt to the brook. This small region of the forest supports an attractive 35 to 45-year-old sugar maple stand.
Sanborn Road offers frontage for a driveway point permitting access to another small section of the forest which slopes to the east.
Currier Road is the primary access point to the forest, which leads to a 1,600 section of class 4 road before entering the southern section of the property. Once on the property, a developed internal road runs 2,600 to a log landing which provides access to all of the propertys western higher elevation. Another internal road runs nearly 3,600 to the east and then north, providing functional access to the lands entire eastern half. Both roads can be seen on the property photo maps.
Frost Road provides legal Class 4 access to a small section of the northern end of the property. However, this area has traditionally been accessed from the established roads that originate on the southern side of the forest.
Site Description
The property has been shaped by its former uses, including an intensive period of farming and homesteading going as far back as the late 1700s. Field evidence, such as barn and house stone foundations, stone walls ,and wire fences, covers the propertys landscape, indicating that nearly all of the land was formally used for some form of agricultural activity. Following abandonment in the late 1800s, as the country grew more industrialized, the farmlands were steadily abandoned and allowed to grow back to forest.
The property is situated in a generally high-elevation region of Vermont. The land is characterized by several hills, ravines, and drainages which offer aspects in all directions. The southern and eastern-facing hillsides especially would benefit from tree clearing in order to maximize potential views, which would offer vistas of the White Mountains to the east. Elevation ranges from around 1,500 near Powder Springs Road, where the land rises up a prominent hillside (1,900) before falling again to the west, where flatter land contains wetlands and low-lying creeks. Headwater streams of Powder Springs Brook are found here, running through the property heading south.
Slope conditions on the property are rolling and moderate overall, and the terrain is easily accessible by foot or via logging equipment during forest management.
Timber
Timber data in this report are based on a timber inventory conducted in December 2022, with the purpose of establishing Capital Timber Value (CTV) by F&W Forestry Services, the owners forest manager. 91 inventory points were sampled (1 plot per 5.4 acres), covering a 486 X 486 grid using a 15-factor prism. Sampling statistics are 13.4% standard error for sawlog products and +/-7% for all products combined at the 95% confidence interval. Upon applying growth for 1 season at regional FIA data growth rates, the timber data reveal a total sawlog volume of 2,243 MBF (Intl scale) (4.4 MBF/acre), with 6,435 pulpwood cords (13.0 cords/acre). Combined total commercial per acre volume is 18 cords, a figure about average for the region. Stumpage values were assigned to the volumes in May of 2024, producing a property-wide Capital Timber Value (CTV) of $566,100 ($1,143/acre). See the Timber Valuation in this report for details.
Species Composition:
The species composition is 84% hardwoods and 16% softwoods. Species composition for all products combined is led by sugar maple (44%), followed by yellow birch (12%), white ash (9%), and red maple (8%). Softwood volume mainly consists of spruce/fir (8%) and pine (3%). Scattered red pine is also found in some areas of the forest. The sawlog volume breakdown is led by sugar maple (46%), followed by spruce/fir (14%), and yellow birch (13%), along with small levels of various common associates. The primary species all have benefited from strong historical (and current) markets for their various end products, ensuring the likelihood of robust asset appreciation from stumpage price growth.
Stocking and Stem Quality:
Stocking is variable due to past timber harvesting, which has targeted various areas of the property. Much of the property is found as mature, even-aged forest, while other acreage has been harvested and is now a less dense overstory growing atop a dense understory. Basal areas in the stands range from 40-120 ft2/ac, and show 69% Acceptable Growing Stock.
Sawlog Value/ Management History:
Sawlog value is dominated by sugar maple (46%) followed by spruce/fir (14%) and yellow birch (13%), with the small balance held by red maple, white ash, and others.
The 2023 forest management plan identifies fifteen forest stands. Most stands have been harvested in the past two decades using a combination of shelterwood, group selection, and overstory removal harvesting. The most recent harvesting on the property occurred in 2018.
Diameter Distribution:
The diameter distribution indicates a wide range, with strong representation from advanced saplings established during harvesting over the years. Poletimber in the 6-10 diameter range is also well-represented. The diameter distribution clearly shows the results of a managed forestland, with the bulk of the stocking being found in small logs and large poletimber nearing sawlog size.
Sugarbush Option
The timber data indicates a total of 16,400 potential maple taps from the 9 and greater size classes, with 84% of the taps from sugar maple and the balance red maple. Tap density per acre is variable, ranging from around 20 per acre in previously harvested areas to 60-70 in more dense hardwood stands. Sugaring use would be an excellent additional income source if portions of the property were given over to taps. Electrical power is available a short distance from the property on Currier Road or on the Powder Spring Road, and slopes offer a diverse aspects for multiple setup options.

Rutland County - Marshall Phillips Road, Brandon, VT
Marshall Phillips Forest is found in the southern end of the Champlain Valley in west-central Vermont. A wide valley between the Green Mountain Range to the east and sprawling Lake Champlain to the west. The lower elevations of this parcel offer a flatter landscape, making hiking through this property less strenuous than the usual steeper terrain of Vermont hillsides. The forest ecosystem on this parcel would support a different mix of plant and animal species than are seen in the predominantly mountainous terrain in the rest of the state. Rivers, brooks and ponds are found nearby, and boating, fishing, and biking are available close to this parcel.
This property sits partially in the towns of Brandon and Sudbury. Brandon is the closest town with several good restaurants, a brewery, and a main street dotted with local shops and a vibrant arts community. Sudbury is a smaller community with a village center to the east. Middlebury is a larger town and is home to the famed Middlebury College, only 17 miles north of Brandon. US Route 7 runs north-south through the Champlain Valley, connecting Brandon with Middlebury and Burlington (50 miles) to the north and Rutland and the east-west US Route 4 to the south. Boston is 3.5 hours to the southeast, while New York City is 5 hours to the south.
The property offers almost 1,800' of frontage on Marshall Phillips Road in Brandon, a town-maintained gravel road with utilities known as Town Highway 15. At this road frontage, a 60' wide, gated driveway provides access to the western end of the property. This grass driveway has been well maintained over the years and leads 1,500' into the property's northern end, where an open clearing is found. At the eastern end of the frontage along the boundary, an established driveway leads a short distance into the property before becoming a woods trail heading around the wetland and into the southern reaches of the property.
Marshall Phillips Forest offers a variety of terrain and habitats suitable for residential development, with hiking, nature viewing, and hunting all found within its 256 acres. Most of the forest showcases different tree species, and the value is detailed in the timber section below. There are sections of wetlands in the forest associated with small brooks that flow through the property. These wetland areas have different characteristics, from marsh grass areas to ponds and streams, and forested areas with cedar trees. This rich ecosystem would host a wide variety of bird and animal life for viewing. There would be a myriad of songbirds, waterfowl, and marsh-dwelling birds, with the occasional Bald Eagle found in this area. The forest ecosystem would attract bears, foxes, and coyotes, along with numerous deer, due to the natural food sources of hemlock, oak, small saplings, and edible ground cover. You might even spot an odd apple tree in the forest, as there is evidence of an old farmstead with stone walls and trails found within the forest's interior.
On the property's western edge at the end of the driveway is an elevated peninsula that has been cleared and maintained, leaving a large open grass-covered clearing perfect for a home or camp. The remaining open area provides a gentle slope towards the wetland with scenic views and towards the property's hardwood slopes to the south. There are good views of local mountains from the potential house site, and additional tree clearing to the east would open views of the wetland area and local mountains.
Accessing the property from the driveway at the eastern end of the road frontage takes you to a wide, flat knoll populated by a middle-aged mixed wood forest. This private site offers a second good option for a camp or year-round home development, as power runs along Marshall Phillips Road. This access point is above the wetland area and provides good walking to the largest part of the forested landscape. As you move along old woods trails, the forest transitions to more mature stands on gentle terrain. On the property's eastern edge, one can access a highly scenic area known as The Ledges. Near these ledges is a fringe of wetland, with a towering stand of hemlocks that slopes steeply upward toward rocky outcrops. Walking under the canopy of towering trees with exposed rock faces looming above creates a surrealistic atmosphere that could be found in a primeval forest.
Above The Ledges is a mature mixed wood stand, and west of here, at the land's southern slopes, there is an attractive hardwood stand of oak, maple, and hickory. The highest elevation on this parcel is roughly 840' above sea level along the southern boundary, and the lowest elevation is found in the wetland area at around 480'. The seller acquired the property in late 2017; since then, no timber harvesting has occurred. Their forest management activities over this period included preparing a forest management plan for 2019 (copy available upon request), annual mowing of the access road, and eradicating invasive species on the east side of the wetlands under the Nrcs cost-share program.
Using the management plan timber inventory data, the total sawlog volume is estimated to be 2,154 MBF International scale (9.9 Mbf/Commercial acre), with 3,778 pulpwood cords (17.4 cords/commercial acre). The combined total commercial per-acre volume is 37.4 cords, which is above the average for the region. Stumpage values were assigned to the volumes in June of 2025, producing a rough property-wide Capital Timber Value (Ctv) of $293,000 ($1,350/Commercial acre). See the Rough Timber Volume & Values table in this report for details. The species composition is 68% softwoods and 32% hardwoods. The combined species composition for all products is led by white pine (43%), hemlock (19%), and other miscellaneous species. East of the wetlands are areas of white pine and Norway spruce plantations established around 1950. Forest density is represented by fully stocked stands with an average Basal Area (Ba) of 97 ft2. The average sawlog diameter (by volume) is 16.5, with the average diameter for all products combined 14.4. Harvesting last occurred on the west side of the wetlands in 2016, where group patch cuts occurred in the pine stands. The remainder of the forest was last thinned +/-25 years ago. Wetlands, including some interesting, forested wetlands, cover +/-75 acres.

Orange County - 149 Mine Road, Strafford, VT
Introduction
The ownership is selling their property in two separate parcels, divided by the town line. The +/-60 acre Strafford parcel is well suited to future home development with paved town road frontage and roadside electric service. The +/-220 acre Thetford parcel is well suited to a camp or seasonal off-grid home development with beautiful local views.
Both parcels have significant frontage along the West Branch of the Ompompanoosuc River. Both parcels have Restricted Use Areas associated with the reclaimed Elizabeth Copper Mine site.
Location
The parcels are situated in east central Vermont, 11 miles from the New Hampshire border. The local landscape is dominated by abundant forestland, with small farms in the valleys and widely scattered homes along roads. This area is part of the West Branch of the Ompompanoosuc River watershed, a sizable river that runs along both parcels.
The hamlet of South Strafford is 1.7 miles to the northwest and is host to a general store. Norwich, Vermont, located 10 miles to the south, is the closest large town offering the most amenities. Interstate 91 is just east of Norwich, and across the Connecticut River is the Town of Hanover, host of Dartmouth College. Boston is just over a 2 hour drive.
Access
This parcel is located along Mine Road, which is a paved, town-maintained road that runs directly to Route 132 and South Strafford. Mine Road is not highly traveled, so road noise near the property is limited. There is +/-212 of frontage along the east side of the road. The road frontage has a deep drainage ditch along it. The best place to park is near the Fountains Land sign where there is an area of flatter ground. Alternatively, you can park up the road at 181 Mine Road which is the entrance to the solar farm. Park here and walk back to the sign to access the land. From this point, the terrain slopes away from the road and down towards the river. Old woods trails can be found across the parcel, including one that leads to the river.
Site Description
The land appears to support the construction of a year-round home. The best potential homesite is likely downslope from the road frontage (off the old driveway), about +/-300-400, where terrain levels off and soils appear to support a septic system. A driveway into the land to this location would have to be developed. Electric power runs along the road frontage.
The terrain is variable, with some steep slopes in between modestly sloping areas. Elevation ranges from 1,080 along the road frontage to 800 along the river. Copperas Brook flows through the eastern area of the property.
Timber
The forest resource is scenic and consists of fully stocked stands with maturing trees. Closer to the road, the tree species are primarily pine and hemlock. The remaining majority of acreage supports hardwood species with scattered large diameter hemlocks and pine.
The river frontage is scenic and an easy hike from the road frontage. An old foundation exists along the river which likely supported a water pump house associated with the mine operations. An old woods road runs down to this site.
The river has a considerable width and can not be crossed by foot during spring or high precipitation periods. Wild brook trout are reportedly common, along with rainbow and brown trout.
Restricted Use Area
The property is part of the former Elizabeth Copper Mine whose reclamation and stabilization was finalized by the EPA. As part of EPAs reclamation/remedial action plan, the land includes a Restrictive Use Area covering a total of 79 acres as represented on the property maps and survey. This area can not be developed or disturbed in the future per the Grant of Environmental Restrictions, Right of Access, and Easement deed. Copy provided upon request.

Washington County - Hayden Hill Trail, Duxbury, VT
Introduction
This 337-Acre property is located about 10 minutes from downtown Waterbury, yet offers a secluded atmosphere for outdoor recreation and off-grid camp building. Excellent timber quality lends well to long-term investment.
Property highlights include:
-High-quality hardwood and pine timber, valued at around $1,150/Acre (based on visual forester estimate)
-Sites available for off-grid camp building
-Situated among thousands of unfragmented, privately and publicly-managed timberland acres
-VAST snowmobile trail running through the property north/south
-10 minutes from downtown Waterbury and its associated amenities
-Access via a public Legal Trail, originating from River Road.
Location
The property is located in northern Duxbury, VT, a rural town containing mainly residential properties, farms, and family-owned timberlands. Much of the town consists of the Camel's Hump State Park, a popular recreation destination for those seeking outdoor adventures. The Winooski River, which runs between the state capital of Montpelier and Burlington (Vermont's largest city) is located just to the north. The property is located squarely in the Green Mountains, originally named by French explorers, and is part of the Appalachian Mountain chain.
Waterbury, a larger city located between Montpelier and Burlington, is a short drive from the property, and contains many large-city amenities while retaining a small-town Vermont charm. Notable businesses in Waterbury include Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream, craft breweries, restaurants, and small shops.
The property is located around 10 minutes from Interstate 89, a major artery connecting Burlington, VT to locations in New Hampshire. The site is located around 20 minutes from the Bolton Valley Ski Resort, and only minutes from trailheads serving Camel's Hump State Park. Burlington is located 35 minutes north via I-89.
Access
Access is via the Hayden Hill Trail, also known as TH 4, which originates from river Road in Duxbury. From here, the trail heads south up Hayden Hill for approximately 0.6 miles. The road here is in good condition for a legal trail, however an SUV or vehicle with greater clearance is needed to access the land. TH 4 leads to a gate, beyond which the property can be found on both sides of the unnamed LT 8. LT 8 has been recently upgraded by a neighboring landowner.
Directions - from downtown Waterbury, proceed southwest on Winooski Street to cross the bridge across the Winooski River. Turn right onto River Road and proceed about 2.4 miles, before turning left onto the Hayden Hill trail. Proceed up this road 0.6 miles to find the property on the left.
Site Description
This property is generally moderately-sloping, with aspect to the north. The forest is found midslope on a large ridge, rising up to a height of land to the south.
Within the property, soil conditions are generally well-drained and productive for forest growth. A Vast trail, used for snowmobiles in the winter, runs through the property north/south, connecting Waterbury to areas south such as Waitsfield and Northfield. This trail is well-maintained, and can be used year-round for hiking and ATV use as well. Importantly, it offers access to the height of land on the extreme south end, where some views are available during the fall and winter seasons.
Stone walls and evidence of previous pasturing are seen on the property, and provide evidence of a long legacy of land use dating back to early settlers. Following pasture abandonment in the 1800'S, this property reverted to forestland, and is now growing mostly high-quality hardwood timber.
A Green Mountain Power transmission line runs through the northern end of the property, heading east/west.
Timber
The timber is an attractive resource which has been professionally managed, and contains mostly quality northern hardwood species such as sugar maple and yellow birch. The growing site appears quite productive, and timber quality and stocking are both higher than average. In the lower elevations, the forest displays a good crop of mature white pine and other softwood species. The most common species is sugar maple, therefore opportunities for a small hobby sugarbush also exist if desired.
The 2019 forest management plan identifies 4 forest stands, mostly consisting of hardwood timber. Capital timber value is estimated (by forester visual opinion) at around $1,150/Acre, which includes costs associated with upgrading Hayden Hill Trail for log trucks. The property in enrolled in the Vermont Use Value Appraisal Program, with the next forest management plan due in 2029.

Orange County - New Boston Road, Thetford, VT
Introduction
The ownership is selling their property in two separate parcels, divided by the town line. The +/-60 acre Strafford parcel is well suited to future home development with paved town road frontage and roadside electric service. The +/-220 acre Thetford parcel is well suited to a camp or seasonal off-grid home development with beautiful local views.
Both parcels have significant frontage along the West Branch of the Ompompanoosuc River. Both parcels have Restricted Use Areas associated with the reclaimed Elizabeth Copper Mine site.
Location
The parcels are situated in east central Vermont, 11 miles from the New Hampshire border. The local landscape is dominated by abundant forestland, with small farms in the valleys and widely scattered homes along roads. This area is part of the West Branch of the Ompompanoosuc River watershed, a sizable river that runs along both parcels.
The hamlet of South Strafford is 1.7 miles to the northwest and is host to a general store. Norwich, Vermont, located 10 miles to the south, is the closest large town offering the most amenities. Interstate 91 is just east of Norwich, and across the Connecticut River is the Town of Hanover, host of Dartmouth College. Boston is just over a 2 hour drive.
Access
The land is accessed from New Boston Road, a graveled, town maintained road. There is no electric power along this part of the road. A +/-400 right of way road runs from the town road to the property boundary and gate. From the gate, a gravel road heads into the land in a northern direction for +/-2,325 to the lands open meadow and likely best camp location. From this point, the road continues through the land for another +/-3,950 (this last section of the road will need some maintenance before its drivable again; however, much of the road is graveled & ditched).
Site Description
The lands primary feature is its nearly 1/2 mile of river frontage at its northern end. Two old woods trails head to the river providing good access to this scenic water resource.
Given the lands access, distance to electric power, Restricted Use Area, and opposing solar array, the highest and best use is likely a camp/seasonal home development, recreation, and/or forest management. A meadow at the end of the access road (see maps for location) offers attractive views to the west and north, a prime location to develop a large camp or seasonal home. There is a small woodland pond near the field that contains amphibians such as newts and frogs, and would be used for drinking water by deer and other animals in the forest.
Elevations range from 730 along the river to 1,200 near the SE boundary. The terrain is mostly gently sloping, however, with steep terrain along the river.
Timber
The forest can be considered aesthetically scenic as it has been several decades since forest management has occurred, resulting in a high canopy thats easy to walk through. Generally, on the higher elevation and more level sites, northern hardwood species dominate. On the steeper slopes and along the river, dense hemlock stands are common, with large legacy trees throughout, holding diameters in the 18-24 size class. The hardwood stands have a range of diameters, are fully stocked, and include large legacy stems. The youngest age class was created from harvesting that occurred +/-24 years ago.
Solar Lease
Portions of the Restricted Area are occupied by a solar project operated by Greenwood Infrastructure, under a lease in which the lease period could remain for an additional +/-42 years. Annual lease income is $1.00. A copy of the lease agreement is available upon request.
Restricted Use Area
The property is part of the former Elizabeth Copper Mine whose reclamation and stabilization was finalized by the EPA. As part of EPAs reclamation/remedial action plan, the land includes a Restrictive Use Area covering a total of 79 acres as represented on the property maps and survey. This area can not be developed or disturbed in the future per the Grant of Environmental Restrictions, Right of Access, and Easement deed. Copy provided upon request.

Location
Keenan Brook Forest is located in the rural towns of Groton and Topsham in the east-central region of Vermont. The area is a hilly section of the state between the spine of the Green Mountains to the west and the wide Connecticut River Valley to the east. The region is populated by small villages and hamlets in a working forest landscape. Scattered small farms can be found in most of the valleys. The 26,000-Acre Groton State Forest lies to the northwest of the property.
Groton is a small town along the east-west Route 302 corridor that links the capitol city of Montpelier and Interstate 89 with Interstate 91 on the Vermont/New Hampshire border. The Wells River flows through town (a collection of small homes and a few services) on its way to the Connecticut River. More extensive amenities can be found in Saint Johnsbury (30 miles northeast), Barre (21 miles west), or Bradford (24 miles southeast). From the property, Boston, Massachusetts, and Hartford, Connecticut, are both a 3-hour drive southeast and south, respectively.
Access
Legal access to Keenan Forest is provided by paved town road frontage, class 3 and 4 town roads, and a private internal roadway leading into the heart of the forest.
Powder Spring Road provides nearly 3,355' of paved frontage along this town road with electric and telephone service. There are two access points off this road with an established gravel driveway along the southern frontage. A northern driveway, which has not been used in nearly 30 years, enters the land in an area well-matched for future homesite development.
Keenan Pond Road offers no useable frontage. However, it does provide the driveway point for the property's internal access road. This gated road runs roughly 6,970' to the land's central area and hosts several forestry landing areas along the way. Well-constructed, with proper culverts and ditching, the road provides the majority of access to the property's forest stands.
Annis Road & TH 36 both provide undeveloped but potential access to the land's northern end. However, this section of the forest is fully accessible from the land's internal access road.
Site Description
The property has been shaped by its former uses, including an intensive period of farming and homesteading going as far back as the late 1700S. Field evidence, such as barn and house stone foundations, stone walls, and wire fences, covers the property's landscape, indicating that nearly all of the land was formally used for some form of agricultural activity. Today, many of the forest stands naturally became established after farming ended on the property in the early 1900S, and reflect the historic property use patterns. Forest stand boundaries are well-defined along stone walls and wire fences, particularly within the pine and most mature sugar maple stands.
The property is situated in a generally high-elevation region of Vermont. The prominent ridge that defines the land's southwestern corner features the property's highest point (2,100') and gives rise to Keenan Brook. Flowage largely originates in the forest and runs easterly, bisecting the land and creating a central valley as it runs into Keenan Bog (low point of the property with an elevation of 1,340'). The terrain is dominated by gentle to moderate slopes, well-suited to fully mechanized forest operational equipment. With the exception of Kennan Bog, soils are well-drained with average to above-average productivity.
There are two logical homestead development sites, with a lower cost option situated along the paved road frontage opposite state-owned lands and a more private site, further from town services, available midway along the internal access road just before reaching the Groton Town Line. On the second site, the terrain is gentle, and the 1,500' elevation offers attractive views of the forest's central valley.
Timber
Timber data in this report are based on a timber inventory conducted in December 2022, with the purpose of establishing Capital Timber Value (Ctv) by F&W Forestry Services, the owner's forest manager. 132 inventory points were sampled (1 plot per 4.6 acres), covering a 450' X 450' grid using a 15-factor prism. Sampling statistics are 10.6% standard error for sawlog products and +/-7.7% for all products combined at the 95% confidence interval. Upon applying growth for 1 season at regional FIA data growth rates, the timber data reveal a total sawlog volume of 2,928 MBF International scale (4.2 Mbf/Acre), with 6,662 pulpwood cords (10.8 cords/acre). The combined total commercial per acre volume is 15.5 cords, a figure about average for the region. Stumpage values were assigned to the volumes in July of 2024, producing a property-wide Capital Timber Value (Ctv) of $640,500 ($927/Commercial acre). See the Timber Valuation in this report for details.
Species Composition:
The species composition is 66% hardwoods and 34% softwoods. Species composition for all products combined is led by sugar maple (26%), followed by red maple (17%), spruce/fir (14%), hemlock (11%), and birches (9%), with miscellaneous softwoods and hardwoods as associates. The sawlog volume breakdown is led by sugar maple (28%), followed by spruce/fir (20%), and white pine (14%), along with small levels of various common associates. The primary species all have benefited from strong historical (and current) markets for their various end products, ensuring the likelihood of robust asset appreciation from stumpage price growth.
Stocking and Stem Quality:
With the exception of areas harvested in 2008, forest density is generally represented by fully stocked stands. The average Basal Area (Ba) is 68.2 ft2 on 139 stems/acre. Stem quality is above average within all size classes.
Sawlog Value/ Thinning History:
Sawlog value is dominated by sugar maple (41%), followed by spruce/fir (17%), and red maple (11%), with a small balance held by pine, ash, and others.
The 2019 forest management plan identifies three forest stands, of which two are hardwood stands, and one is primarily a spruce/fir stand. All stands were thinned in the early 90's (+/-31 years ago). Stand 2 (hardwood) was also treated in 2008 via thinning and group selection. One third of stand 3 (softwood) was treated in 2008 via patch clearcuts.
Diameter Distribution:
Average diameter for all products combined is 12.0, while the average sawlog diameter is nearly 13. Average diameter for sugar maple is 13, yellow birch is 14.5, and spruce/fir 10.
The diameter distribution indicates a wide range, with strong representation from advanced saplings (established from the thinning 31 years ago), pole growing stock (pre-sawlogs, likely 60 years old), and medium to large sawlogs (75-100 years old). Worthy of note is that 25% of volume from the main hardwood species (maple, yellow birch & cherry) comes from the 5-10 size classes, creating a solid future sawlog crop.
Sugarbush Option
The timber data indicates 24 taps per acre in the forest, with a total of 14,760 taps on the property. 62% of the taps on the property come from sugar maple. Tap count per acre is variable, but the land is suitable for smaller-scale hobby operations or family sugarbush development that does not cover the entire forest.
