Washington County, Vermont
Farm Description
The Berlin Plantations Forest is a multiple use property with commercial, residential, and recreational potential. Located in the central Vermont town of Berlin, the property is directly off Interstate 89 and adjacent to the twin cities of Montpelier and Barre. Central Vermont is a significant commercial center for the state with a strong labor force and many established businesses. Likewise, it is a culturally vibrant region with good schools, the state capitol, shopping restaurants and multiple entertainment venues. The Green Mountains, numerous lakes, ponds and rivers, and several ski areas are all within easy reach of the property.
Open meadows, apple trees and a large pond frame the main entrance to this potential residential/commercial use property. A flat gravel road provides the primary access to the central portion of the property while several seasonal roads and trails form a good foundation for future year-round access to most parts of the property. The terrain throughout is generally flat with some gently rolling sections.
The well-managed plantations offer tremendous forest aesthetics with little understory growth and provide privacy and noise screening for both residential and commercial endeavors. The property is the perfect setting for a green campus where innovative companies could share in infrastructure and reduce their impact on the environment. A well-positioned homesite can offer an appealing and private retreat with convenient access to the area’s many amenities.
