What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? VA.
I just purchased a home on 1.76 Acres. The property takes the shape of a rectangle. Looking over the plat, I see that the neighbor across the street has a Var. Width Drain field Easement that appears to span across the property from front to back. It takes approxamately 1/3 of the property. Our property as a whole continues after the easement for an additional 200 feet.
I have not spoke to the neighbor about this yet. I would like to understand as much as possible about the situation before hand.
What does this mean?
Am I allowed to build a fence around my complete property?
Do I need to allow them access?
Can they walk the property any time?
Who is responsible for grounds maintenance?
Do I need to provide them with groomed access?
Can I own a dog that may hendor there access?
Do I treat this just like my own land?
Exact wording:
Var. Width Drainfield Easement Hereby Established to Benefit Adjusted Lot #
Lots of questions, I appracaite any answers or additional information.
Thanks in advance!
