Windham County - West Hill Road, Jamaica, VT
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. Four of the five parcels have frontage on the newly constructed 20 foot wide access road that winds its way up the hill toward Lot 5 at the top of the subdivision. Lot 1 can be accessed directly from West Hill Road.
Location
These properties are close to three ski areas: Stratton Mountain is 7 miles away, Magic Mountain is 11 miles northeast and Bromley Mountain is 14 miles to the west. It's only a 30 minute drive to the town of Manchester where many shops and restaurants can be found. The West River is located nearby and provides a great place for fishing, swimming, and paddling. Opportunities to hike in the Green Mountain National Forest or mountain bike on trails and dirt roads are all found in the area. The properties are only two-and-a-half hours from the Boston area, New York City is four hours south, and Hartford, CT is only two hours away.
Access

Site Description
Lot 5 is 51.93 acres and is located at the top of the subdivision. This parcel is very unique, and rarely do pieces of land like this come onto the market. Lot 5 has a private driveway that begins at Lot 4. The parcel encompasses the entire north side of the subdivision, from the bottom of the hill all the way up the access road. The views from the clearing at the top of the driveway are to the west toward Bromley Mountain, but there are also big views in the other direction looking southeast. There would be several spots to build on this parcel, but the top of the hill seems like the place to be with the ability to have unobstructed views from your new home.

The surrounding landscape on the Vermont side is primarily forested, with thousands of acres of public or publicly-accessible forests, trails, and roads available for exploration. Surrounding development is limited, with only scattered homes and camps dotting the landscape and featuring small farms in the valley areas.

Only 12 minutes away, the Gateway to the Great North Woods ensures access to services when needed.

Vermont and New Hampshire snowmobile and ATV trails are nearby to the south and north, with a Vast snowmobile trail crossing the property to the south. Kingdom Heritage Conservation Lands (Vt) to the west provides ample opportunities for hiking, biking, fishing, hunting, and exploration, while in New Hampshire, the White Mountain National Forest is found only slightly east of Lancaster.

Certain areas were not harvested and boast more mature growing stock. The species mix is predominated by maples, ash, birch, and beech, representing a typical Vermont hardwood species mix. The property is well placed for future asset appreciation as these stems grow into sawlog classes.

Trails have been maintained by the landowner over the years and are ready for immediate use.

Timber Resource
Timber data in this report are based on a timber inventory conducted in the spring of 2021, which assisted in establishing Capital Timber Value (Ctv). 60 inventory points were sampled (1 plot per 4.35 acres), covering a 446' X 446' grid using a 10-factor prism. Sampling statistics are 14.7% standard error for sawlog products and +/-12.2% for all products combined at a 95% confidence interval. Timber was grown forward 4 growing seasons using current FIA timber growth data.
The timber data reveal a total sawlog volume of 1,280 MBF International scale (4.8 Mbf/Acre), with 3,466 pulpwood cords (13.3 cords/acre). The combined total commercial per-acre volume is 22.9 cords, which is an average figure for the region. stumpage values were assigned to the volumes in 2025, producing a property-wide Capital Timber Value (Ctv) of $336,700 ($1,277/Commercial acre). See the Timber Valuation in this report for details.
Species Composition
The species composition is dominated by hardwoods (94%), with softwoods holding the balance (6%). The combined composition of all products offers a diverse mix, led by sugar maple (29%), followed by yellow birch (28%), and red maple (22%). The sawlog volume breakdown is similar, consisting of yellow birch (35%), sugar maple (33%), red maple (17%), spruce/fir (3%), and white ash (5%). The softwood species component (mostly red spruce sawlogs with larger diameter stems) occupies a small mixedwood stand at the land's northeastern end.
Stocking & Stem Quality
Forest density is generally represented by fully stocked stands covering most of the acreage. The exceptions are in the western and southwestern sections of the forest, where stocking is still below full conditions. The average Basal Area (Ba) is 78 ft2 on 140 stems/acre. Stem quality is generally quite good with Acceptable Growing Stock BA at 63ft2. The highest quality stems are in pole-sized growing stock and smaller hardwood sawlog components. The larger sawlogs fall short of veneer quality but offer straight, tall stems.

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.

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.

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.

Essex County - 955 Hall Road, Lunenburg, VT
Property Overview
Located in rural Lunenburg, Vermont, this property offers the perfect blend of access to local amenities with the seclusion of Northeast Kingdom forestlands. The surrounding landscape is one of vast, undeveloped timberlands, mixed with well-maintained camps off Hall Road, which also serves as an ATV and snowmobile trail. Property highlights include:
-Standing timber value of $140,500, with a promising timber asset appreciation outlook
-Attractive forest conditions, with minimal low shrubs and regeneration creating easy walking conditions
-Developed access off Hall Road, with a built driveway (right-of-way) accessing potential camp sites
-Mostly gentle terrain with trails ready to be upgraded
Location
The forest is located in the town of Lunenburg, in the Northeast Kingdom, which borders New Hampshire and the Connecticut River. Much of the area is rural and characterized by a heavily forested landscape, with homes generally scattered, except for clusters found in small hamlets and along Neal Pond. Small farms along the Connecticut River are also prominent, contributing to the region's traditional working-land character. The landscape to the north is almost entirely forested and includes several larger timberland blocks under both private and public ownership. Neal Pond is a short distance to the south and features a public launch for fishing and boating. Lunenburg Village lies just 5.5 miles from the property via Route 2. The village offers a convenience store, post office, elementary school, and town municipal offices. The drive to the village along Pond Road passes occasional year-round homes, while the immediate Hall Road area is known for its numerous seasonal camps.
Lancaster, New Hampshire, is the closest major town, located about 10 miles east along the Connecticut and Israel Rivers. Lancaster serves as a regional hub with a vibrant downtown, offering full amenities and earning the reputation of the Gateway to the Great North Woods. The town can be found bordering the scenic, rolling mountains of the Kilkenny Range within the White Mountain National Forest. For broader regional access, Boston and Portland, Maine, are approximately a 2.5-Hour drive to the south and southeast. There are sites available for potential camp-building near the existing cleared log landing or at several other locations throughout the forest.
Access
The property can be accessed via Hall Road, which is a Class 4 town road. This is followed by a legally deeded 50-foot-wide right-of-way (Row) that provides direct access to the property, stretching approximately 1,100 feet.
Although Hall Road is not maintained by the town and is not plowed during the winter months, nearby camp owners routinely maintain the road, ensuring it remains passable. During the winter, Hall Road serves as a significant Vast snowmobile trail.
Property Description
The land is primarily characterized by gentle slopes, with some steeper sections forming a hillside that faces southwest. The elevation ranges from approximately 1,620 feet above sea level (Asl) in the east, where a log landing and potential campsite locations are found, to about 1,940 feet ASL at the height of land to the north. A small stream drains this hillside, flowing southwest and eventually forming Hall Brook, which empties into the Connecticut River to the west.
The ground conditions and slopes are favorable for timber harvesting and recreational activities, with very little difficult terrain limiting access. Some areas of the property are upland and quite dry, while other regions to the west contain more softwood timber and riparian zones, providing excellent wildlife habitat.
Forest trails, created from previous logging activities, can be found throughout the property, offering access for off-trail snowmobiling, ATV riding, hunting, and hiking. Hall Road itself serves as a Vast Snowmobile Trail during the winter months, providing access to major trails leading to points of interest in Vermont and New Hampshire. There are several potential camping sites available near the existing cleared log landing and at various points throughout the forest.
Timber Resource
Timber data in this report is based on a comprehensive timber inventory completed in June of 2023 to establish Capital Timber Value (Ctv), then grown forward two growing seasons using current FIA growth data. Thirty-six inventory points (1 plot per 3.6 forested acres) were sampled, covering a 415' x 415' grid using a 15-factor prism. Sampling statistics are 30% standard error for sawlog products and 13.7% for all products combined at the 95% confidence interval.
The timber data revealed a total sawlog volume of 481 MBF International scale (3.7 Mbf/Acre), with 2,751 pulpwood cords (21 cords/acre). The combined total commercial per-acre volume is 28.4 cords, a figure above average for the region. Stumpage values were assigned to the volumes in August 2025, producing a property-wide Capital Timber Value (Ctv) of $140,500 ($1,072/Acre). See the Timber Valuation in this report for details.
Species Composition
Hardwoods dominate the species composition, accounting for 89% of the total volume, while softwoods make up 12%. The overall mix closely mirrors that of the surrounding region, with sugar maple comprising 47% of the total volume, followed by red spruce (32%), white ash (8%), yellow birch (6%), black cherry (3%), and miscellaneous hardwoods.
The sawlog volume breakdown reflects strong market demand, led by sugar maple, yellow birch, white ash, spruce/fir, white birch, aspen, and black cherry. A notable attribute is the limited presence of beech in both the overstory and understory.
Sawlog Value
Sawlog value is concentrated in sugar maple (53%), red spruce (28%), white ash (11%), and yellow birch (4%), with the balance in miscellaneous species.
Diameter Distribution
The average diameter for all products combined is 11.1 inches, while sawlogs average 11.7 inches. Sugar maple, the dominant species, averages 13.0 inches. Overall, the forest consists of two primary age classes: an older cohort, roughly 70 years old and scattered throughout the property, and a younger cohort established about 35 years ago following a heavy harvest.
Stocking & Stem Quality
Fully stocked stands represent forest density. The average basal area (Ba) is around 97 ft on 296 stems per acre. Stem quality is well above average for the region, with acceptable growing stock BA at 81 ft. The younger age class is high in density, with straight, clean, and tall stems perfectly positioned for future asset appreciation and for shifting products to higher-value sawlogs and veneer. The older age class represents a strong income opportunity the next time the property is silviculturally treated.

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.

Windham County - West Hill Road, Jamaica, VT
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. Four of the five parcels have frontage on the newly constructed 20 foot wide access road that winds its way up the hill toward Lot 5 at the top of the subdivision. Lot 1 can be accessed directly from West Hill Road.
Location
These properties are close to three ski areas: Stratton Mountain is 7 miles away, Magic Mountain is 11 miles northeast and Bromley Mountain is 14 miles to the west. It's only a 30 minute drive to the town of Manchester where many shops and restaurants can be found. The West River is located nearby and provides a great place for fishing, swimming, and paddling. Opportunities to hike in the Green Mountain National Forest or mountain bike on trails and dirt roads are all found in the area. The properties are only two-and-a-half hours from the Boston area, New York City is four hours south, and Hartford, CT is only two hours away.
Access
The Cotswold Hill Parcels are located at 3104 West Hill Road in Jamaica, VT. From Route 30 in Jamaica, turn onto Mountain Acres Road and drive for one mile. Turn right onto West Hill Road and drive for 1/4 of a mile to the access road.
Site Description
Lot 3 is 34.53 acres, and is mostly forested near the access road. A driveway would need to be built to get into the interior of the forest. There is long frontage along West Hill Road, and it might be possible to build a driveway from that side of the parcel with access directly from West Hill Road. Alternatively, a house could be built closer to the access road where there are some nice views of the mountains to the north and west. The views from the West Hill Road side of this lot would be to the east, and those views could be made better with tree clearing.

Washington County - Plunkton Road, Warren, VT
The property is well suited to buyers seeking to establish a large family compound in Warren with plenty of acreage to roam or, property developers aiming to subdivide and sell multiple homesite parcels (which the current zoning supports). The land abuts the Green Mountain National Forest, and is a short drive to Sugarbush Ski Resort, Blueberry Lake, and Warren Village.
Key property highlights include:
- Ideal home sites close to town road;
- 8 miles to Sugarbush Resort and 6 miles to Warren, Village
- Views of Mount Adams with tree clearing.
- Bordered on the west by Green Mountain National Forest & south by lands of the State of Vermont.
The property is situated along the southern end of Plunkton Road, a town road that leads north to the heart of Warrens scenic easterly highlands. The potential building sites are in an ideal location, very close to Route 100 and only 15 minutes from Sugarbush Resort. Blueberry Lake is walking distance up the road, where you can boat, swim or fish on a pristine, uncrowded lake. From the land, walking access is available to the adjacent Green Mountain National Forest, where tens of thousands of acres are available for recreational pursuits. Boston is three hours away, and New York City six hours. This area of central Vermont has much to offer, from restaurants and cultural amenities to outdoor pursuits. Burlington and Lake Champlain are an hours drive away.
Access can be considered excellent with +/-660 of frontage along Plunkton Road, a town-maintained, graveled road, with electric power and telephone services roadside. There is an existing old driveway cut into the land supporting a future internal road/driveway to support future home development.
The lands relatively high elevation (+/-1,600) provides attractive, potential views to the southeast of Mount Adams, a nearby peak with elevation of 3,180 which lies along the Northfield Range, also in view with tree clearing.
The potential homesites offer an easterly to southeastern aspect covering gently sloping land with a few moderate slopes in between gentle benches. Soils in this area appears to be somewhat well drained. One of two possible old driveways can be used to access these potential homesites, one off Plunkton Road and one off the beginning of Southview Road (see maps for location).
The northeastern corner of the land is relatively flat supporting tall softwood trees on variable soil conditions with some wet areas. The west central area is the highpoint with elevation of 1,700 with a walking trail leading to the site. From this point south the land falls off covering variable terrain with rock out-crops in many areas creating an attractive hiking destination.
One year round stream runs along the southeastern boundary. Another small steam drains through the land creating small pools and tiny falls. The southern boundary runs along the Warren/Granville town line with Route 100 +/-300 from the southern boundary.
Forest aesthetics for the property can be considered highly attractive given the older age classes and dense overstory canopy, however in the northwest area, a dense understory exists given the nature of the mostly softwood species composition which can thrive in semi-light conditions. The western and south hardwood stand is mature with large trees while the area near the potential homesites has younger trees.

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.
