8000 Bear Hill Road - Maidstone

Your ideal 232 +/- acre recreational oasis awaits in the beautiful northern Vermont town of Maidstone! Setback from a drivable & lightly traveled Class IV road, the property is completely surrounded by a sense of peace & quiet, offering an excellent recreational hideaway with private trails, 20-acres of wetlands, and wildlife signs throughout. Hunters take notice – the forester for the property has indicated that a section of the land with beech stocking shows “heavy usage by black bears”! A roughed-in driveway off Bear Hill Road opens up to a large, level clearing with distant mountain views to the south, offering the perfect place for your recreational camp or year-round home, if septic is identified per state regulations. An extensive, unmaintained old logging trail network in need of reclaiming extends from the large clearing & provides ATV access to the bulk of the acreage with trails leading to the stream and wetlands featured nearby the southern boundary of the property. The property is ideally suited for off-grid power, with the closest utility pole approximately 3500’ from the large clearing on the land. Consolidated offers high-speed internet, TV & telephone services to homes located along Bear Hill Road and Route 102. Enrolled in the state’s Current Use program, the property enjoys substantially reduced taxes with continued good stewardship of the land. Only 5 miles to the VT/NH Connecticut River crossing, 11 miles to the Maidstone Lake & 1 hour to St. Johnsbury!
