346 East Road - Whitingham, VT
Quaint parcel located in the quiet woods of southern Vermont, probably best suited for recreational use (though building may be possible with the proper permitting).
The town of Whitingham is generally friendly toward recreational vehicles, making this a beautiful spot to place yours, especially beside the winding creek on the western border.
The property has approximately 208 feet of frontage on East Road, which is a class 4 road not maintained by the town, however the maintained portion of this road is only 300 feet away if you approach from the west. Therefore it is highly recommended to approach from the west when viewing.
A tall embankment on East Road would need to be graded down to allow driveway access for an RV, and also to flatten out a portion of the ground which slopes very gently to the west.
A disused cabin of little or no value is located on the premises, and it was actually connected to electricity in the 1970s, suggesting it would be relatively inexpensive to reconnect this parcel to the grid if desired.

RV Potential: Maximum two years consecutive use as a "temporary structure" per zoning definition or maximum three weeks consecutive use as a "primitive camp." Adding permanent features such as skirting or connection to permanent sewer triggers reclassification as a "permanent structure," which requires zoning permit. Buyer is encouraged to use common sense and act as a respectful neighbor for best results. East Road also has a tall embankment on the south side, so grading will be required to physically place an RV on-site.
