About this home
Tucked deep in the woods on 15.10± acres and on the VAST trail network, this well-insulated, off-grid camp is close to Jay Peak Resort and near Westfield’s famed Balance Rock. Inside you’ll find 2 bedrooms, a wood stove for heat, propane lanterns for light, and a propane cookstove, plus a generator hookup for optional power. There’s no running water, septic, or electric. The structure is unfinished and needs some love—a great opportunity to bring your tools and vision and finish it your way. An outhouse and outbuildings handle storage and wood. The 15.10± acres are mostly wooded with abundant wildlife—ideal for hunting, hiking, and snowmobiling right from camp. A simple basecamp with big four-season fun nearby.
