Welcome to 298 Biddle Road - a one-of-a-kind off-grid homestead set on 5.03 private acres at the end of the road in Lincoln, Vermont. This contemporary octagonal home offers 2,200 square feet, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and sweeping views of Mt. Abraham and the Green Mountain National Forest. Originally designed as a teaching facility, the home features an open-concept main level with 10-foot ceilings, expansive panoramic windows, and exceptional natural light. This is a project property - and that is part of its honest charm. The home is in need of significant structural repairs and updates throughout, and the existing rustic workshop outbuilding has reached the end of its useful life and is best suited for tear-down (it sits on a slab with an in-ground oil-change pit). Bring your vision, your builder, and your imagination - properties like this, with acreage and views like these, don't come along often. The land delivers what new construction can't replicate: 5.03 wooded acres of true seclusion, framed by panoramic mountain views and the privacy of being the last house on the road. Additional outbuildings include a chicken coop, a small cabin in the woods with power, and an outhouse - assets a homesteader, off-grid enthusiast, or short-term rental investor can lean into. Upstairs, four private rooms include a primary bedroom with inspiring views of Mt. Abraham - Vermont's natural beauty greets you in every season. Location is the bonus: 10 minutes to Bristol, 25 minutes to Middlebury, and 45 minutes to Burlington and the airport. Mad River Glen, Sugarbush, and the Long Trail are all nearby, putting skiing, hiking, mountain biking, and four-season Vermont adventure right at your doorstep. A blank canvas with mountain views, true privacy, and unmatched potential. Schedule your tour of 298 Biddle Road, Lincoln, Vermont, today.
