What is the property that benefits from an easement called?

The property that benefits from an easement is referred to as the Dominant Estate. In the context of easements, the Dominant Estate is the property that has a right to use another property (the Servient Estate) for a specific purpose. For instance, if a landowner holds an easement that allows them to access a road over a neighbor's land, their property is the Dominant Estate because it benefits from that right of access.

Understanding the distinction between the Dominant Estate and the Servient Estate is crucial in real estate and title law. The Servient Estate, on the other hand, is the property that is burdened by the easement; it allows the owner of the Dominant Estate to exercise their right. Legal Title and Appurtenant Rights do not directly refer to the property benefiting from an easement. Legal Title pertains to ownership rights in real estate, and Appurtenant Rights generally refer to rights that benefit a property but may not be specifically tied to an easement.
