Located in eastern Penobscot County, this is an outdoor enthusiast’s paradise, ideal for hunting, fishing, biking, horseback riding, hiking, snowmobiling, and ATV adventures.

Location

Nestled in Carroll Plantation, this property provides a unique rural setting in a town with a small population of around 138. Carroll spans 44 square miles, making it geographically larger than many other towns in Maine.

It is conveniently situated near Springfield (8 miles away), where you can find gas and convenience stores, and Lincoln (28 miles away), which offers hospitals, groceries, building materials, and restaurants. For more extensive amenities, Bangor is just 77 miles away, and Portland is 205 miles away. The Canadian border is only 33 miles to the Vanceboro crossing into New Brunswick, providing easy access for international trips.

Points of Interest

The property is a gateway to a wealth of outdoor activities. ATV and snowmobile trails are accessible directly from the property, and nearby Lakeville boasts landings giving access to Junior Lake, Scraggly Lake, Bottle Lake, Duck Lake, Sysladobsis Lake, West Grand Lake and others.

For fishing enthusiasts, Grand Lake Stream is a renowned spot for fly fishing, especially for landlocked salmon and brook trout.

The area is rich in public lands and conservation easements, with nearly 350,000 acres of protected land that allow for public access and preserve the natural beauty of the region.

Land

Access is easy for this property which is located a short distance off Route 6. It enjoys clear deeded access over Dipper Pond Road with more than two miles of road frontage. Two interior roads provide access off Dipper Pond Road, One to the cabin’s location, and the other further south near the center of the land running east and west between the two prominent ridges of the property.

The property covers approximately 645 acres of diverse terrain, with elevations ranging from 380 to 890 feet above sea level. These rolling hills create a diverse landscape with some amazing views.

The soils are primarily Cannan and other stoney, silty, and gravelly loams, making it ideal for trees and wildlife. These soils, though too steep and rocky for efficient farming, could be used in select areas for gardening and wildlife food plots.

The land features mixed timber growth with mostly hardwoods such as maple, birches, beach and ash along the steeper slopes and hill tops. The areas around the pond and brooks are more heavily treed with softwoods.

Water features on the land include 8± acre Dipper Pond, intermittent and perennial brooks, and a couple of open wetland and ponded areas which are magnets for the local moose, whitetail deer, waterfowl and many other species of wildlife.
