Easements are generally classified into two main types:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Appurtenant Easement<\/strong> \u2013 This type of easement <strong>benefits a particular parcel of land<\/strong> and is tied to the ownership of the land. It has two parties:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Dominant Estate<\/strong> (the property benefiting from the easement)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Servient Estate<\/strong> (the property burdened by the easement) Example: A private road allowing a landlocked property owner to access a public road through a neighbor\u2019s land.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Easement in Gross<\/strong> \u2013 Unlike an appurtenant easement, an easement in gross <strong>is not tied to a specific piece of land<\/strong> but rather benefits a person or entity. It typically applies to utility companies or individuals with special rights over another&#8217;s property. Example:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A power company having the right to run electrical lines across private land.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A person granted permission to fish in a private lake.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Key Difference:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Appurtenant Easement:<\/strong> Transfers with property ownership and benefits a specific land.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Easement in Gross:<\/strong> Benefits an individual or company and is not attached to land ownership.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, the statement is <strong>false<\/strong> because an easement that does not benefit a particular parcel of land is an <strong>easement in gross<\/strong>, not an <strong>appurtenant easement<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I will now generate an image representing this concept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/image-1400.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-194653\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is an illustration that visually explains the difference between an <strong>Appurtenant Easement<\/strong> and an <strong>Easement in Gross<\/strong>.
