    What's special

    Insulated cabinSleeping loftWoodshed provides additional storageUpdated windowsNew kitchen cabinetsNew flooringDurable metal roof
    Escape the noise and create the Vermont lifestyle you've been dreaming of. Nestled on 3.7 private acres just 10 minutes from Morristown and 20 minutes from Stowe, this off-grid property offers an increasingly rare opportunity to own an affordable piece of Vermont with the infrastructure already in place. The insulated cabin features new flooring, updated windows, a durable metal roof, a sleeping loft, and a powerful wood stove that keeps the space warm and cozy year-round. A bathroom is plumbed and ready for finishing, while new kitchen cabinets and a range are included so the next owner can design the space to suit their needs. A woodshed provides additional storage, and with no electrical service, the property is ideally suited for solar or generator power. The true value lies beyond the cabin itself. A high-yield well and brand-new year-round septic system are already installed—making this an exceptional opportunity for someone looking to establish an off-grid homestead, create a private family retreat, or use the existing cabin as a comfortable base while building a future home. Much of the expensive groundwork has already been completed. Outside, a stream meanders through the wooded property, filling the air with the sounds of running water. Enjoy the existing disc golf set up, gather friends and family for unforgettable camping weekends (or summers?!), or simply relax in the privacy that only a setting like this can provide. Located approximately a half-mile up a Class 4 road, this property rewards those with a 4WD vehicle and a bit of adventurous spirit with remarkable seclusion. A year-round off-grid neighbor just up Corley Road has coordinated winter plowing in the past, making full-time living entirely possible. Opportunities like this are few and far between. Whether you're seeking freedom, self-sufficiency, a family getaway, a camp for grownups, or the perfect place to build your future, this property offers incredible value and endless potential!
