An exceptional opportunity at the very top of Vermont. Nearly 200-acres with breathtaking views, unmatched privacy, and potential for a wide range of commercial, agricultural, recreational, and residential ventures. Tucked away at the end of a private dead-end road, the northern boundary borders Canada, creating a truly unique setting. Zoning allows 1-acre lots for single-family residences, opening the door to a variety of future development opportunities (subject to local and state approvals and permitting). Whether you envision a Planned Unit Development (PUD), resort with cabins, wedding venue, equestrian facility, campground, farm, private estate, tiny home community, or other investment venture, this property has the acreage and flexibility to bring your vision to life. The farmhouse is vacant and in need of rehab. The home contains black mold and is being sold as-is, where-is. The impressive 5,548-square-foot barn sits across the road from the farmhouse. It offers tremendous potential as an event space, workshop, equipment storage, commercial operations, recreational building, or future guest accommodations. Nature lovers and investors alike will appreciate the property's extensive woodlands, home to maple trees with potential for a sugaring operation (forestry report is available). All but the farmhouse and approximately 2.5 acres are enrolled in Vermont's Current Use Forestry Program, helping reduce carrying costs while preserving the property's natural resources. Just 2 minutes from Richford Country Club, 20 minutes from Jay Peak Resort, 40 minutes from St. Albans, and just over an hour from Burlington, Newport, and Montral, the location offers outstanding recreational and tourism appeal. Richford also has three US/Canada border crossings. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a large property with exceptional development potential in northern Vermont.
