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.

Now offered at an improved price, Chase Mountain Forest presents exceptional opportunities for a multiple-use investment at a price well below the capital timber value of $1,584,300. This mature forest presents opportunities for immediate timber harvesting, sugaring, or conservation goals and a 2-acre building envelope for those looking to live close to their investment. Investment highlights include: -Recent 2024 sugarbush inventory revealed 44,864 taps with an additional 18,314 potential taps within the 5-8 diameter size classes. -Exceptional timber resource with capital timber value estimated to be $1,584,300. -Long town road frontage with developed internal woods trails. -Secure access with roadside power. -Attractive location within 7 miles of Vermont's capital city, Montpelier, and 39 miles to Burlington, Vermont's most populous city. -An old house and 2.0 acres outside the land's conservation easement, near the end of a quiet, town-maintained road, with options to repair the existing homestead or build new to suit. -Protection by a conservation easement, allowing sugarbush operations, forest management, and development of associated support infrastructure. Location Chase Mountain Forest is located in central Vermont, a region known for nurturing productive stands of sugar maple and other commonly occurring northern hardwoods. The area also benefits from a diverse array of regional and local markets for forest products, including sawlogs, veneer, pulpwood, and maple sap/syrup outlets. The surrounding landscape is mountainous and heavily wooded overall. The property is 15 minutes from Montpelier, the state capital of Vermont, and Interstate 89. The forest is within the towns of Moretown and Berlin. The city of Montpelier and surrounding towns are well known for their solid employment base, strong communities, and vibrant cultural scenes. To the south, the closest town is Northfield, which contains the famous Darn Tough Socks headquarters and Norwich University. Boston, Massachusetts, and Hartford, Connecticut, are both 3.5 hours to the southeast and south, respectively. Access This multiple-use investment offers secure, year-round access from a town road. Much of the forest is accessed by Chase Road, a fully-maintained, graveled town road off Vermont Route 12. The property starts near the end of Chase Road, where only one year-round residence is located. There is approximately 2,100' of frontage along the maintained section of the road and approximately 3,500' of frontage along the Class IV section (not maintained during winter months). A portion of the southern end of the property is accessed from Showacre Road, where a legal right-of-way from this road enters the property. Electric power and phone service are provided along the Chase Road frontage. Power at the land's southern end is roughly 1,000' from the property. Boundaries are generally marked and monumented; however, maintenance in the form of boundary painting will likely be needed within the next five years. Site Description The property is positioned along the eastern slope of Chase Mountain, a locally prominent peak over 2,000' in elevation. Two shoulders associated with Chase Mountain fall on the property, creating the highest points at 1,859' and 1,790' in elevation. These shoulders define the eastern bowl of Chase Mountain, a scenic, secluded area with the headwaters of Chase Brook. Much of the terrain slopes gently, with rolling hills on primarily southern, northern, and eastern aspects. Moderate to steep terrain exists in areas leading to the ridges. Along some of the road frontage and internal trails, the terrain is mostly gentle. There is a 5-acre meadow at the land's southern end where the right-of-way enters the property. The property includes a former caretaker's house near the end of Chase Road. The house and its 2.0 acres have been formally subdivided from the larger, easement-encumbered forest. The house is in need of repairs and is being sold as is with no warranty as to its structural condition, septic, or water systems, although water and septic systems are currently installed. (Alternative septic sites have also been approved as part of the subdivision). This site offers an ideal location for a sugarhouse or home, whether by repairing the existing structure or tear-down and new construction. The structure has existing power and telephone hookups, as well as outbuildings, which are currently used to store hay and other implements. Whether by repairing or rebuilding the existing structure, this house and the associated house site represent an attractive addition to the property. Conservation Easement The conservation easement on the property is held by the Vermont Land Trust (Vlt), a Vermont-based organization and one of the most respected conservation organizations in the nation. A working forest partnership with VLT offers the new owner predictability and cooperation, given the long history and solid reputation this land trust has established regarding the easement lands under its jurisdiction. A principal objective of the easement's commercial acreage is to maintain, grow and harvest forest resources and products on a sustainable basis. The terms of the easement prevent subdivision and future development of any kind; however, forestry and sugarbush operations, and construction of associated support infrastructure, are permitted, including construction of a visitor's center. Easement highlights include: -Most sustainable and traditional forestry and sugarbush activities are permitted to support the long-term stewardship of the protected property. -The entire property is open to non-vehicular public recreation and hunting. -Silvicultural activities are limited to sustainable levels, with target crop tree diameters set per species group. -SWPZs (Surface Water Protection Zones) are present in the forest. No forest management activities are permitted within 50' of easement mapped brooks and wetland areas (such areas have been removed from the timber inventory). -Harvest levels are reduced within 250' of easement-mapped brooks and riparian areas as part of the Swpzs. -One camp structure of 800 ft square is permitted and has been constructed on the property. -The maps provided in the report designate the Surface Water Protection Zones (Swpz). Copies of the easement and baseline documentation are available upon request. Timber Timber information provided in this report is based on a May/June 2024 timber inventory using random point sampling with 139 BAF 15 factor points taken (1 plot/7.0 acres). Sampling statistics are favorable, with 8.6% for all products combined and 11.2% for sawlogs at the 95% confidence level, figures within industry standards. The timber cruise grid was one plot every 564' X 564'. Volumes are current with this growing season and can be considered an accurate and complete inventory of the timber value in the forest at this time. The timber data reveals an overall timber value of $1,584,300. Sawlogs, both hardwood and softwood, account for $1,288,100 of the value, which is comprised of 64% hardwood and 36% softwood. Species Composition: A species composition dominated by hardwoods prevails, with hardwoods at 73% and softwoods at 27% of total volume. Species composition is led by red maple (23%), followed by sugar maple (22%), hemlock (17%) and white ash (9%). The sawlog volume breakdown consists largely of maples (49%) and hemlock (13%). The diverse species composition is the result of past agricultural land use, which covered nearly all of the gently sloping terrain. The historic fields have naturally reverted to forest over the last 150 years. In these areas, white birch and pine prevail. Within the areas that have not seen agricultural uses over the last 150-200 years, northern hardwoods, such as sugar maple, yellow birch, ash, and beech dominate. The species composition is typical of forests that have experienced past agricultural use, where early-successional species dominate, as well as areas in the far reaches of the property where older, less disturbed forests dominate. Stocking and Stem Quality: Forest stocking is generally overstocked or well-stocked on most of the acreage. The average Basal Area (Ba) is well over 120 ft2 on 238 stems/acre. Acceptable growing stock BA is nearly 87 ft2, a level which can nearly fully occupy the growing space upon thinning of the lower-quality stems. Sawlog Value/ Thinning History: Sawlog value is largely dominated by sugar maple (44%), with the balance equally split by the other individual species and species groups, such as white ash, birches, and maples. Since the tenure of the current ownership, which began in 2010, no silvicultural activity has been conducted, and no harvesting has occurred since 1993. Based on current stocking levels, thinning activity can occur at any time, and a good portion of the property is scheduled for harvesting in this forest management planning period. Diameter Distribution: Average diameter for all products combined is 10, while the average sawlog diameter is nearly 15. Younger stands (about 30-60 years of age) exist on the gently sloping terrain. Older stands (average age of about 100 years) occupy the mid-slope and ridgetops. There is a 5-6-Acre red pine plantation along West Hill Road. The property contains a diverse mix of age classes and species compositions. While the bulk of the timber value is found in high-quality, mature sugar maple stands, the forest also contains areas dominated by pine and spruce, as well as younger stands that were harvested around 30-60 years ago. In these areas, saplings and small poletimber consisting of hardwood species make up the bulk of the stocking, and represent an excellent future value potential. The two major species are sugar maple and red maple, which show strong average diameters and stocking. Sugarbush Opportunity The property offers an exceptional potential sugarbush

Introduction 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. Location 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 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. Site Description 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 Resource 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.

Introduction The property is ideally suited for development of a family homesite where an existing graveled road with buried electric run to a potential homesite. The lands high elevation offers long views to the west with tree clearing. Easily accessible with short commutes to Plainfield Village and Montpelier, the location benefits from a quiet area with limited road noise. Location The land is located in the rural town of Plainfield, a bedroom community to the nearby Barre-Montpelier Cities. The area is a working landscape of family farms, managed forests, public lands and small villages. This regions land use is nearly evenly divided between farm and forestland, with homes semi-widely scattered. The 26,000-acre Groton State Forest occupies the eastern end of the town, with the Spruce Mountain Trailhead 3 miles to the east. The capital city, Montpelier, with an enticing array of amenities, is 11 miles to the southwest, with Barres downtown along the way. Plainfield Village (less then 2 miles to the west) offers a restaurant, health center, grocery store, opera house, and book store. The golf course, open to the public, is at the Country Club of Barre, 5 miles to the west, with the East Hill Farm Riding Center 2 miles to the south. Boston, Massachusetts, is a 3-hour drive to the southeast. Access Access can be considered excellent with +/-835 of frontage along East Hill Road, a town-maintained, graveled road, with electric power and telephone services roadside. A high quality driveway enters the land from East Hill Road and proceeds 1,500 to near the height of land. This gated road currently accesses the cell tower on the land but also serves as the perfect driveway to the potential homesite. Electric power is buried along this road facilitating a low cost electric option for the homesite. Site Description The lands relatively high elevation provides attractive, potentially long views to the west of the Worcester Range, Paine Mountain and the Green Mountains. The height of elevation is 1,580, occupying part of the top of Maple Hill, with the potential homesite just below this elevation, creating the view potential. The land can be considered gently sloping with some steeper terrain in a few areas. The land along the town road represents the low point whose elevation is 1,320. From here, terrain consistently rises to the east and to the top of Maple Hill. Soils can be considered well drained and productive. Given the relatively high elevation, no year-round streams are on the land. Various old stone walls run through the forestland. The entire property is forested with the exception of the access road, the cell tower foot print and a small clearing near the cell tower. The land has NOT been tested and approved for septic use however soil conditions indicate the soils will likely support a septic system. The buyer should retain a soil engineer to determine if a septic can be designed for the buyers intended property uses. A cell tower is located on the property near the height of land, at the end of the driveway. The property is subject to an existing cell tower lease and its related access and utility easements. Any rent derived from the cell tower lease shall not convey to the buyer as those rights will be reserved by the seller or conveyed to the cell tower tenant or a 3rd party through an easement and assignment of lease. Timber Forest aesthetics for the property can be considered excellent given the older age classes that exist whose high, dense canopies have created limited regeneration and plant growth in the understory making it easy to walk and see long distances. The forest resource can be divided into two stand types, Stand 1 is on the lower slopes and is a dense hemlock stand which is +/- 90 years of age. The stand appears to be part of a deer-yard providing important white-tailed deer habitat in the winter months. Stand 1 is a hardwood area on the mid and upper slopes where sugar maple is the dominant species. The stand age is about 60 years old however scattered 150 year old legacy trees exist. A forest management plan is available upon request.
