Vermont in the 21st century still has places tucked away in peaceful hills and valleys, where it preserves the enduring patterns of a working agricultural landscape, where generations have embraced the traditions of stewardship. These private areas offer a natural refuge from the fast pace of modern life by connecting to the rhythms of the seasons. Newton Lane is a 110-acre sanctuary of varied land: open pastures, mature hardwoods, conifers, fieldstone walls, and a network of springs that supply year-round shelter and water for wildlife. This rare and iconic property is in the towns of Hartford (101 acres) and Norwich (9 acres), near the historic settlement of Jericho and the farmsteads surrounding the Upper Connecticut River Valley. Just a short drive from the centers of commerce, employment, education, and culture in Norwich, Hartford, Hanover, and Lebanon, it provides an extraordinary opportunity to build a home on land shaped to sustain the needs of a bygone era. The ideal building site with south and westerly exposure overlooks a wild apple orchard, 10 acres of open pasture, and sweeping mountain views, capturing abundant natural light. The Cossingham Trail network, less than a mile away, connects directly to the Appalachian Trail, offering hiking, mountain biking, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing. The property is just 4 miles from Dartmouth College, 7 miles from Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center, 5 miles from White River Junction, and 16 miles from Woodstock. Easy access to I-89 and I-91 allows convenient travel to Boston and New York City. Close to everything you need and a world away from the things you don't.
