Railroad Bed East, Marshfield, VT 05658 - Washington County

Hardwood Mountain Forest is a rare, large forest tract in central Vermont with an exemplary stewardship history spanning decades. The property is ideally suited for long-term capital timber appreciation, with possible large-scale sugarbush opportunity. Notable highlights of the forest include: excellent species composition, dominated by sugar maple; high overall stocking with an average of 30 cords per acre; wide diameter distribution with high volume of sawlogs and a growing stock comprised of favorable northern hardwoods; conservation amenity from adjacent state lands; well-positioned for robust asset appreciation while offering cash flow from silvicultural operations; developed access enabling full property coverage for future forestry activity. While the property is being offered in its entirety, the ownership is open to selling the northern Devils Hill and southern Hardwood Mountain South Tracts separately, pending subdivision approval.

The Devils Hill Tract is well-suited to the family buyer seeking a timber investment property with opportunity to develop a year-round or seasonal retreat overlooking Bailey and Marshfield Ponds and the highly scenic Marshfield Ledges. Outdoor recreation possibilities are at their finest in this region with the 26,000-acre Groton State Forest as a neighbor. The remote Kettle Pond is within walking distance from the property.
