- Description: Set on nearly 37 unrestricted acres in the beautiful Benson countryside, this 2007 Cape offers a rare opportunity to own a large agricultural property without conservancy or land trust restrictions. The open, tillable acreage is partially fenced and includes mature apple, peach, and pear trees, berry bushes, a six-stall horse barn with power and tack space, and an additional large hay barn. The two-bedroom, two-bath home features second-floor access to a covered balcony overlooking the vast expanse of open land and surrounding countryside. A finished portion of the basement was previously used as a veterinary office, with its own private entrance and the original infrastructure still in place, offering excellent potential for a home-based business or other flexible use. A large two-car garage with automatic openers is connected to the home by a covered walkway. Additional features include a whole-house generator, buried propane, private well, and private septic. Wildlife is abundant, and the VAST trail system runs through a neighboring property nearby. With expansive, unobstructed sky views, usable acreage, established agricultural infrastructure, and newer construction that is increasingly difficult to find in Vermont, this is a truly breathtaking and exceptionally versatile property.
