199 Arthur Morgan RoadWoodstock, VT 05091Price: $399,000

Peacefully located, in the heart of equestrian oriented South Woodstock, is this prime 6.6 acre portion of a classic Vermont hill farm. This idyllic parcel of land, with many often sought features, could be the setting for a memorable Vermont weekend retreat! Construction of a substantial year round home would be equally justified in this truly pastoral setting! Even though it is very privately located the parcel has excellent frontage on a year round town maintained road. It would be a fair statement to say that hours could go by without a vehicle passing. If a vehicle would drive by, it would most likely be one of just several neighbors. When initially entering the property a large open pasture rises up from the road. On the left and to the east the open pasture is bounded by a cascading stream and outcroppings of an old stone wall. Walking up through the sloping pasture, while facing to the South, obvious building sites are suggested. At the height of the pasture a good size pond comes into view, as you face West. That pond is entirely within the property! Turning back to look in the direction from where you entered the property are long views of distant hills. From the height of the pasture the views in every direction are pastoral and pleasing. Beyond the pasture are mature woodlands that invite exploration. This particular area within South Woodstock is tremendously appealing! Neighbors have made quality maple syrup for decades! At the end of Arthur Morgan Road is a trail network of incomparable equestrian and walking trails! An uninhabitable old farmhouse is near the front of the property and will most certainly be removed by a new owner. Many local contractors could manage such a demolition. The obvious appeal of the land, with a large sunlit open pasture, a private pond, ancient stonewalls, and nearby miles of woodland trails could suggest securing the land for immediate recreational enjoyment while planning for a future use. Location! location! location!
