25 minutes from Mt. Snow and just off Vermont Route 100, one of the most beautiful scenic byways in the country, sits this wooded lot perched above Ryder Pond. Cut your driveway from the highest point on the ridge, and build your dream home just before the terrain slopes gently down to the pond below.

The land is mostly pine and a beautiful forest in its own right. Soils look high and dry for an easy build, though no percolation testing has been conducted recently. Electricity is available at the road, which is maintained year-round by the Ryder Pond Homeowner's Association, responsible for upholding the quality of this sparsely developed subdivision.

A third of a mile down the hill, where the road intersects with Route 100, there's a little deck for launching kayaks or just enjoying the Ryder Pond shore. Less than 40 minutes from downtown Brattleboro.
