The lot enjoys 350-570 ft of road access on three sides. The northern boundary fronts a state highway, Route 63, which connects Exit 6 to Route 14 in South Barre, the eastern boundary fronts the town-maintained East Road directly off Route 63, and the southern boundary goes along a shared private road. Overall, traffic patterns on Vermont Route 63 can be considered non-congested but quite active.
Lot 1 offers excellent visibility from Route 63, with nearly 60% of the land in meadow. The balance of the lot is recently cleared forestland, which is now naturally establishing into a field. Most of the land is dry and well-suited to development. The lot is commercially zoned, allowing for automobile sales and service, restaurants, retail shops, office buildings, hotels, and banks, among other uses. Certain conditional uses would likely be granted with a Conditional Use permit including warehouse and light manufacturing facilities. The lot offers abundant space to comply with all setback and lot size requirements.
