Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This listing offers 54+/- acres of wooded land with a quarter-acre pond, along with an on-site layout that places a future home set back beyond the pond. A gate is currently in place, and the town will remove or relocate upon request. The property’s frontage is accessed via a paved, town-maintained road that leads to level Class IV gravel frontage; the gravel portion is not plowed or maintained by the town, and runs approximately 400+/- feet.

Utilities are described as readily accessible, with town water running along the frontage and confirmed adequate pressure for development. Power and high-speed cable internet are noted approximately 250 feet west. Zoning is Rural Conservation.

State mapping indicates favorable conditions for a wastewater system, and a prior purchaser completed soils work showing a 6-bedroom residential mound system, but did not move forward with the purchase. State mapping also indicates a small wetland closer to the road, which the remarks say should be avoidable.

Key Highlights

  • 54+/- wooded acres in historic Bennington, VT, with wildlife habitat and a secluded setting.
  • Quarter‑acre pond feature, with potential home placement set back just beyond the pond.
  • Access via paved, town‑maintained road plus 400+/- ft of level Class IV gravel frontage (gravel portion not plowed/maintained by the town).
