An easement is a specific right in, over, or under land for a specific purpose and is considered to be one of the "bundle of rights" which goes with landownership (fee simple title). Ownership of the land itself does not transfer with an easement. Therefore land which is subject to an easement is known as the "subservient fee."

Can a property easement be removed from a deed?
You can't have an easement removed from your land. You purchased the land subject to the easement because a prior owner granted another party some sort of rights in your land. The only way to remove the burden of an easement is to obtain a release in writing from the owner of the easement and then record the release in the land records. If the easement is used for access, it cannot be removed. Evidence of an easement can be removed from the deed description for land, however, removing the language from the deed will not affect the easement right. The easement will be disclosed during a title examination. In Massachusetts if the instrument that created the easement appears in the chain of title then it encumbers the property whether or not the easement is recited in subsequent deeds. That is a major reason to have a title examination performed by a professional. The title exam reveals encumbrances that are not recited on the deed and must cover a period of 50 years in. That period varies from state to state.
