10 Acres of Vermont Woods with VAST Trail Access — $79,000

The structure is 192 square feet, built in 2007, and the listing calls it a primitive camp. That's accurate. One room, no bathroom, no grid power. Two generators are included, and so is whatever furniture is inside. You are not buying a house. You are buying land with a small shelter already on it.

The land is the point. Ten acres in Vermont woods, with direct access to the VAST trail system, which is the statewide snowmobile network. If that matters to you, it matters a lot. You can ride out from the property without trailering anywhere. You can also hunt on it.

Getting there is easier than the acreage and remoteness might suggest. There's a gravel road in, and I-89 exit 3 is a few minutes away. So it's genuinely off in the woods, but you're not driving an hour on dirt to reach it.

The bathroom situation is worth understanding clearly. Right now there is no septic. The deed allows for a septic system to be installed on an adjacent lot, but only if a state-approved system can be permitted there. Vermont's permitting process for septic is real and not always simple, so that's a variable to investigate before you get too far into plans. As of now, the camp functions without one.

This is sold as-is. The generators are included. The furnishings are included. The seller is not making upgrades before closing.

Who this works for: someone who wants a place to base a snowmobile trip, or a hunting camp, or just a piece of Vermont land with a foothold already on it. The 192 square feet gives you shelter. The ten acres gives you the reason to be there. If you're hoping to build something more permanent eventually, the septic question is the first thing to resolve, and you should go in knowing it's unresolved.

For $79,000 in Vermont with over ten acres and trail access, the price reflects what the property is, a primitive camp on good land, sold honestly as such.
