About this home
The West Burke Forest property has a house built in 1988 with 1000 sq foot of living space and a completely finished basement. The building is in good shape structurally but could use some cosmetic work to inject some color and give it a more modern appearance. There is an open plan living area upstairs which also has one bedroom, one bathroom, a large kitchen and a deck facing south. The basement level contains another two bedrooms or office space and another living area, bathroom, and outside deck. The two-bay garage has an additional room in the back of the building used as workshop. The land itself is a mix of forest and open areas, with a large grass meadow near the road. The forest contains a mix of hardwoods and softwoods, a small area of vernal wetlands, and about 1,000 feet of frontage on the West Branch of the Passumpsic River. This property would be well-suited for a local family or used for a holiday home due to its location close to so many outdoor activities. The Seller is a non-profit corporation that is unavailable to review offers until August 21, 2023, at which time any and all offers will be considered and responded to within three business days.
