Final answer:
An appurtenant easement is a right that allows the use of one person's land for the benefit of a neighboring parcel and is transferred with the dominant estate, not tied to an individual owner.
Step-by-step explanation:
An appurtenant easement is a type of property right that allows the holder of the easement to use the land of another, typically for access to their own property. This type of easement is capable of transfer along with the property that benefits from the easement; it is not personal to the holder. Thus, when the property that benefits from the easement (known as the dominant estate) is transferred, the easement is automatically transferred along with it. This is because an appurtenant easement is attached to the land, not to an individual.
