0 VT Route 105 Jay, Vermont 05859 MLS# 4609677

Jay North Forest is an exceptional timber and/or sugarbush opportunity with attractive species composition, productive soils, good access and a diameter distribution supporting high levels of product shifting over the next 10-20 years. The property has multiple aspects, with a southern aspect at the land’s northern half and the remaining acreage split between a northern and western aspect. The majority of terrain slopes to the access road with the most of the land representing moderate terrain. Much of the terrain is commercially operable. Throughout the forest, the species composition is dominated by hardwoods, led by sugar maple, followed by yellow birch, with other common hardwoods and red spruce/hemlock comprising the balance. Nearly ideal species composition for a sugarbush. The Capital Timber Value has been set at $535,200. There is a potential tap count of 26,442 taps with roughly 92% of the taps from sugar maple, providing an average of 51 taps/acre. Also, the timber data indicates that an additional 26,000 taps will become available in the coming years from the growing stock. A conservation easement on the property allows most sustainable and traditional forestry and sugarbush activities, public non-vehicular recreation and hunting and one small camp structure. †
