40 Acres Of Affordable Maine Land

Description

Are you looking for a large, affordable tract of Maine land
that’s easily accessible year-round? This 40± acre surveyed property in the
unorganized territory of T24 MD, Washington County, offers the perfect balance
of seclusion and convenience. Located along the well-maintained Airline Road
(Route 9), this off-grid parcel is nestled in a semi-remote region surrounded
by vast stretches of forestland, lakes, rivers, and recreational trails—making
it an ideal retreat for outdoor enthusiasts and investors alike.

Good Land What makes
this land even more attractive is its location within an unincorporated
township, which means your property taxes are among the lowest in the state due
to minimal public services. At just $48.39 for the 2024 tax year, it’s a rare
opportunity to own land affordably in one of Maine’s most scenic and wild
areas. The parcel features approximately 708 feet of paved road frontage and
sits at elevations ranging from 370 to 460 feet above sea level. The soil
composition, largely made up of the Skerry and Colonel series, is well-suited
to growing eastern hardwoods and eastern white pine. In fact, the property has
recently undergone a pre-commercial thinning to enhance future timber growth,
offering strong potential as a timber investment.

Surrounded by millions of acres of private land with public
access, this area is a four-season recreational destination. Snowmobiling,
ATVing, hiking, and paddling opportunities abound. Just a short drive away is
the 7,000-acre Great Heath MPRL, home to one of Maine’s largest peatland
ecosystems and a peaceful paddling route along the Pleasant River. Nearby lakes
like Mopang Lake and Pleasant River Lake offer exceptional fishing, boating,
and wildlife viewing. Mopang Stream, which drains the lake, is renowned as one
of Downeast Maine’s best trout streams.

Though you’ll feel worlds away from the bustle of city life,
you’re still within reach of key destinations—54 miles to Bangor International
Airport, 55 miles to Ellsworth, and just 69 miles to Bar Harbor. Even St.
Stephen, New Brunswick, Canada, is only 44 miles away, making a day trip across
the border for golf or seafood in St. Andrews easily doable.

This Maine land is not only a recreational paradise but a
smart investment in timber and off-grid living. Whether you’re planning to
build a cabin, park an RV, or simply hold the land for future value, this
property checks all the boxes for nature, privacy, and potential.
