A unique chance to own an important piece of wilderness in the Wild Branch watershed. 49.5 +/-acres in Current Use with a focus on forest and animal habitat stewardship, and being sold as such. Several easily accessible potential off grid homesites -choose from sunset views from the existing clearing among apple trees, or closer to the Wild Branch river & watching the wildlife below you. Or simply enjoy this as wilderness with its flora and fauna - there is so much here to explore & admire. VT Fish and Wildlife has been conducting fish surveys in the Wild Branch on this property since 1938, and Sterling College students access it for the forest stewardship program; one student survey documented over thirty bird species. Work has been done with grant assistance to enhance the old apple Trees & improve the wildlife habitat. Acreage below the Wild Branch has gone untouched for many years and is just waiting for hiking adventures/to be explored/whatever. An open area near the road serves as pollinator support and substantial wild berry production. Some wetlands along the brook harbor wildlife and protect water quality. Drop a line in the brook and you just might get lucky! Pitch a tent and enjoy the night stars or string a hammock by the waters edge and enjoy the calming sound of the water. Additional 192.5 +/- A is available. All within close proximity to the Craftsbury Outdoor Center & mid way between Jay Peak Resort & Stowe Mountain.
