About this land
The property is almost entirely forested with a nice mix of hard maple, black cherry, soft maple, hickory, basswood, along with Norway spruce and larch, creating a mosaic of quality feeding and bedding areas for deer while also providing current and future timber value. Timber was last harvested in 2023 to remove the dying white ash affected by the ash borer. The result of logging is an excellent network of trails throughout the property making it easy to hike for hunting or pleasure as well as for use of ATV's and side by sides. Most areas on the property can be reached using the internal trail is a natural pond that is more than an acre in size in the north central part of the property. There is no information as to how deep it is, but it certainly is a water source for wildlife of all types and may even reign in a duck or two during the peak flight season. There are also a few areas with openings that could make excellent hidden locations for food plots. The open field area on the southeast side even has a nice view! The property has approximately 2,585 feet of road frontage and is located at 478 Dunham Road. Electric is not available at the property and is about a quarter mile away. This would make a great spot for your future camp for deer and turkey hunting with solid hunting here and plenty of State Land only 5 miles away and Pleasant Brook at the end of Dunham Road for your rainbow trout fishing pleasure.

Questions to ask before you buy
Good questions for any home near the slopes.
- How is the property reached in winter, and who plows the road and driveway?A short straight-line distance can still mean a long or seasonal drive. Private roads, gates and mountain passes all shape winter access.
- Is there documented ski access from the property (trail, easement, lift), and does it transfer to a buyer?Rights to cross neighboring land or use a lift come from recorded easements and agreements, so a ski-in or ski-out description is where the question starts.
- Are there association, resort or club fees, and what do they cover?Some ski-area communities charge fees that cover only certain amenities, so ask what lift tickets, passes and services are included.
- Are there rules on renting the home short-term or long-term?Local ordinances, association covenants and deed restrictions all set rental rules, and they differ from place to place.
- What do heating, snow removal, winterization and utilities cost over a season?Ownership costs in snow country often run higher than the mortgage estimate suggests.
- For land: is there legal year-round access, and what utilities, septic and building rules apply?Seasonal roads and steep lots can limit what can be built and when it can be reached.
