Property Description
Buck Brook Forest offers an attractive 463-acre± timberland and recreational property in Brighton and Charleston, Vermont. The property is situated just five miles west of Island Pond, offering a secluded forest that remains proximate to primary roads and services. The forest provides a well-stocked blend of northern hardwood species. Timber volumes are nearing a transitional value shift from pre-merchantable pulp-size to merchantable saw-timber size forest products that will support and accelerate value appreciation through the next ownership. A May-2024 timber inventory (available upon request) shows 2.0 MBF sawtimber and 10.6 cords of pulpwood per forested acre. The property is enrolled in Vermont’s Use Value Appraisal program with a 2023 tax bill of $1,762. It also benefits from immediate recreational access to VAST snowmobile, VASA ATV, and VTXL bike trail systems. Buck Brook and associated wetlands enhance scenic beauty wildlife values while Lake Willoughby, Seymour Lake, Echo Lake and Jobs Pond offer attractive water resources within 15-25 minutes of the property. Access is via seasonal class-four portions of Basil Hill Road and County Road (1.4 mi), and a short (0.2 mi) private right of way. St Johnsbury ~1hr. Montreal ~2hrs. Boston ~3.5hrs.
