0 Manelick RoadStowe, VT 05672Price: $1,200,000

Just over 20 acres in one of Stowe's most established neighborhoods, offered together as two adjoining home sites, Lots 4 and 7 off Manelick's Drive. Vermont wastewater permits are already in place for a shared, engineered septic system serving both lots, and each lot is separately approved for its own drilled well, so much of the early groundwork is already done. Lot 4 sits above it all. Recent clearing has already opened the way, and with a bit more, the house site takes in sweeping views of Mt. Mansfield. Set high and away from the road, it has the feel of a tree house on top of the world, a private perch among the treetops with the mountain always in view. Lot 7 offers a different kind of retreat. Tucked into its own pocket of forest, the lot is anchored by an exposed ledge outcropping that gives the landscape real character, changing with the light and the seasons and shaping a house site with genuine presence. It is the more private of the two, wrapped in mature maple with little sense of a neighbor nearby. The shared driveway off Manelick's Drive has been roughed in, giving a true sense of each lot and its building envelope. Build a home on each, or combine both into a single private estate. However you choose to develop it, this a rare opportunity to secure meaningful acreage in Stowe.
