landlocked

Read a random definition: expected/intended exclusion

A quick definition of landlocked:

Landlocked: When a piece of land doesn't have a road that connects it to other public places, it is called landlocked. This means that the only way to get to the land is by crossing someone else's property. Sometimes, the owner of the landlocked property can get permission to use a path or road on someone else's land, called an easement. They might also be able to buy an easement from a neighbor. If a piece of land becomes landlocked because it was sold off from a bigger piece of land, there might be an implied easement by necessity, which means that the new owner has the right to use a path or road that was already there.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Landlocked refers to a piece of land that has no direct access to a public road or pathway. This means that the only way to reach the land is by crossing someone else's property.

For example, if someone owns a piece of land that is surrounded by other properties and has no direct access to a road, it is considered landlocked. This can be a problem for the owner, as they may not be able to use the land for certain purposes without access to a road.

However, there are ways to gain access to a landlocked property. One way is to negotiate with a neighboring landowner to purchase an easement, which is a legal right to use a portion of their property to access the road. Another way is to establish an implied easement by necessity, which means that the right to access the road is implied in the original transaction when a portion of the land was sold.

Overall, landlocked properties can be a challenge for owners, but there are legal options available to gain access to a public road.
