Properties Near Mine Road Strafford, VT

The land's primary feature is its nearly 1/2 mile of river frontage at its northern end. Two old woods trails head to the river providing good access to this scenic water resource. Given the land’s access, distance to electric power, Restricted Use Area, and opposing solar array, the highest and best use is likely a camp/seasonal home development, recreation, and/or forest management. A meadow at the end of the access road (see maps for location) offers attractive views to the west and north, a prime location to develop a large camp or seasonal home. Near the meadow is a tiny deep pond which may be swimmable. Elevations range from 730’ along the river to 1,200’ near the SE boundary. The terrain is mostly gently sloping, however, with steep terrain along the river.

The land appears to support the construction of a year-round home. The best potential homesite is likely downslope from the road frontage (off the old driveway), about +/-300-400’, where terrain levels off and soils appear to support a septic system. A driveway into the land to this location would have to be developed. Electric power runs along the road frontage. The terrain is variable, with some steep slopes in between modestly sloping areas. Elevation ranges from 1,080’ along the road frontage to 800’ along the river. Copperas Brook flows through the eastern area of the property.
