Lilli West, Realtor Owner of Maple Leaf Real Estate selling residential and commercial real estate in VT and NY. “Real estate is a passion for me.

When you love what you do…you are good at it!”

With over a decade as the top producer at Maple Leaf Realty, Lilli took the next step in her real estate journey by purchasing the company from her longtime mentor and its founder, Kathy Sollien. Now as Owner and Broker, she is proud to carry on Maple Leaf’s legacy while shaping its future. Lilli is deeply committed to the local community. She serves on the Board of the Bennington Chamber of Commerce and is an active member of the Bennington County Housing Committee. She’s also a strong supporter of area shelters, the local soup kitchen, and initiatives that strengthen the region. A seasoned investor herself, Lilli has been buying and renovating real estate—both apartments and single-family homes—for more than 20 years. This hands-on experience gives her unique insight into property quality, investment potential, and the challenges that come with selling estate properties, business transitions, and long-term real estate planning. She brings this knowledge to every client interaction, whether she’s helping homeowners list their properties or advising investors and families through complex sales. Lilli launched her real estate career in 2007, just as the market took a downturn. Learning the business during such a challenging time shaped her resilience, sharpened her skills, and laid the foundation for her reputation as one of the area’s top commercial real estate experts. Today, she enjoys mentoring new agents and empowering experienced professionals to grow their careers. Her latest passion is residential development and new construction. Recognizing the urgent need for housing in Bennington County, Lilli has taken an active role in creating solutions and building for the future. Outside of work, Lilli is a proud mom of three teenagers. She loves spending her free time with her family and friends, participating in community events, helping others, and enjoying the outdoors.

🌄 Did someone say MILLION-DOLLAR VIEWS?!

Nearly 70 acres of breathtaking Vermont land with views that stop you in your tracks — and they seem to get better from every corner of the property.

Once a working farm, this incredible property still features a barn, silo and drilled well, with much of the acreage already cleared, mowed and beautifully maintained.

✨ Build your dream home
🌾 Bring the farm back to life
🐴 Create a horse or hobby farm
🏡 Design a family compound
🌲 Hunt, hike & enjoy your own private retreat
🏘️ Or explore subdivision/development possibilities

With multiple spectacular building sites, open fields, wooded areas and nearly 70 acres to work with, the possibilities are almost as big as the views.

And a great aspect- It’s not enrolled in Current Use, giving the next owner flexibility to make it their own.

📍 Vermont: on corner border of Massachusetts and New York “ tri state area”
🌄 Nearly 70 acres
💚 One seriously unforgettable property

You really have to stand here to understand just how special it is.

🏡 THREE DOWN, THREE TO GO! 🍁

One year ago this month, we started this townhome project at Jennings Brook with a vision, a set of plans, and a whole lot of work ahead of us.

Today, I’m so excited to say that Townhome #3 has SOLD! 🎉

It’s pretty incredible to look back at where we started and see where we are now. Four of the six homes are completely finished, and the final two are well underway and scheduled to be completed by the end of October.

There have been plenty of challenges, decisions, long days, and lessons along the way — but there is something incredibly rewarding about watching an idea on paper turn into actual homes where people will build their lives.

And we’re not finished yet. ❤️

I’m so proud of what our team at Solutions Development has created here: beautiful, energy-efficient, low-maintenance homes designed to provide comfortable one-level living in our community.

Townhome #3 is officially SOLD, and this project is heading toward the finish line! 🏡🍁

Here’s to the next closing — and to seeing all six homes completed very soon! There are still 2 available if you know anyone looking for one level new construction living!

This one is taken off market
