About This Property

Discover a remarkable 34+/- acre parcel of land in Brandon, VT, offering an exceptional opportunity for a sprawling individual homesite or a lucrative subdivision. Strategically positioned between the Middlebury and Rutland employment corridors, this property boasts breathtaking mountain views to the west and southeast, alongside a versatile mixture of open fields and wooded terrain. While it is perfect for a singular executive estate, local zoning allows for 1/5th acre lots, providing massive subdivision potential. Smaller developers can comfortably plan a 9-lot subdivision to avoid Act 250 jurisdiction altogether, though the property is in process to be classified as Tier-1B with relaxed permitting requirements for larger buildouts. Best of all, municipal water and sewer are available right at the frontage, with allocation letters confirming ample capacity. Power and high-speed internet are also easily accessible. Access is efficiently routed via Carver St or Nickerson Rd, bypassing the need for a state highway permit. The quintessential town of Brandon - fondly known as "the Art and Soul of Vermont" - features a beautifully revitalized downtown with art galleries, boutique shopping, a small market, a community health center, and an impressive culinary scene spanning from casual bites to fine dining. Town officials are enthusiastic and highly supportive of mixed-use or housing development. The seller is encouraging all offers and opportunities, eager to help make this site a thriving, valuable addition to the community.
