Town Hill Road Wolcott, VT 05860

This Wolcott, Vermont property is an established maple sugaring operation paired with a custom log-sided home. The site includes approximately 276 acres across five lots and features 8,000+ taps, a state-of-the-art sugarhouse, hot-water cleaning throughout, and a 30,000-gallon indoor sap storage system with all sap metered. Equipment includes a CDL Deluxe oil-fired evaporator, an H2O Supra high-output RO system, a long-bank filter press, two high-vacuum pumps, CDL monitoring with remote pump controls, and dual CDL electric sap releasers. Power is available with 400-amp service within 50 feet. A 30' x 40' equipment shed supports day-to-day workflow, and on-site woods are described as producing an average of five pounds per tap.

The home is arranged with an inviting open living, dining, and kitchen area with birch and ceramic tile flooring, a main-level bedroom and full bath with laundry, and two additional bedrooms plus a half bath upstairs. The ground level includes a one-car garage, storage, and a workshop/office area. Heating is provided by an efficient propane boiler with four zones, including radiant heat on the main level. The property is enrolled in Vermont’s Current Use Program, and 79 acres are conserved.

From an operating standpoint, the sugarbush and sugarhouse are set up for high-volume production and have historically supported up to 25,000 taps, with additional capacity supported through leasing additional woods or purchasing sap. Options include acquiring the home, sugarbush, sugarhouse, and equipment on about 170 acres (subject to final survey), adding a permitted 1.58-acre building lot, or purchasing the full 276 acres, which includes an open field, a pond, and an added 1,000–1,500 tap potential.
