Property Description
If you've been dreaming of a simpler, more self-sufficient lifestyle, this 0.53-acre lot offers the perfect place to begin. Tucked away at the end of a quiet dead-end road, the setting feels peaceful and private—ideal for cultivating a small organic homestead, garden, or retreat from the pace of everyday life. With plenty of usable space, this property is well-suited for raised beds, small-scale farming, or simply enjoying open land of your own. A short walk brings you to the shores of Lake Bomoseen, adding natural beauty and recreation right at your doorstep. Important groundwork is already complete, making your transition to homesteading even smoother. Water is installed on-site, power is available at the road, and an approved wastewater permit for a 2-bedroom home is included. The current owner also holds an active building permit through June and is willing to share plans and local contacts to help you get started. Flexible options allow for modular homes or double-wides, giving you the freedom to build in a way that aligns with your vision and budget. Conveniently located just minutes from Route 4, you'll have easy access to Rutland, nearby New York, the Amtrak station, and Castleton University—close enough for essentials, yet far enough to enjoy a quieter, more intentional way of living. Whether you're looking to grow your own food, simplify your lifestyle, or build a peaceful retreat, this property offers the space and setting to make it happen.
