1506 Windham Hill Rd Townshend, VT 05353

At just under 200 acres, this excellent parcel offers total privacy and seclusion but also access to all that Southern Vermont has to offer. The property features a well-balanced mix of hard and softwoods with some of the most mature trees being over 200 years old. Some of those trees have grown in the stone walls that crisscross the property, bearing witness to forest regrowth after the original clearing of the land in the 1850s when Vermont was 80% fields and sheep dominated the hills. On the eastern boundary Tannery Brook flows to the south, ready to cool you off on summer days. Much of the land is part of the Use Value Appraisal Program (formerly Current Use) so the woods have been maintained and managed to the highest standards. There are three access points for the property, but the best is off Old Acton Road. 25 minutes to Stratton or Mount Snow, 40 minutes to Okemo, Manchester, or I-91.
