Hanover, Map R2 Lot 18 off Howard Pond Rd

±43 Forested Acres near Sunday River!

±43-Acre Mountainside with Panoramic Views — The Chadbourne Lot

This unique ±43-acre mountainside parcel offers exceptional privacy, panoramic views, and convenient access to some of western Maine’s most sought-after outdoor destinations. Elevations range from approximately 1,240 feet along the western boundary to an impressive 1,560 feet at the eastern boundary, providing excellent potential for scenic overlooks and future view openings.

Harvested around 2012, the property now supports a vigorous young mixed forest of predominantly hardwoods—White Birch, Maple, Aspen, Beech—with scattered White Pine, Balsam Fir, and Spruce. The old skid trails remain visible, offering a natural foundation for internal trail systems or access routes.

From Small Road a 60-foot-wide, approximately 1,000-foot-long deeded unimproved right-of-way leads to the southwest corner of the property. The seller also owns the abutting ±151-acre Mt. Dimmock Lot, which is available separately and will be served by a right-of-way over the Chadbourne Lot.

The property is not enrolled in Maine’s Tree Growth Tax Program, offering flexibility for potential development, view clearing, or a private retreat. There is no power on site, reinforcing its quiet, off-grid character. Located off Howard Pond Road/Small Road, the lot sits just two minutes from beautiful Howard Pond—a pristine ±109-acre, 118-foot-deep trout and salmon fishery with a public hand-carry boat launch—and only five minutes from the Androscoggin River. The nearby Howard Pond Overlook/Woodman’s Trail ascends to roughly 1,380 feet, rewarding hikers with sweeping mountain vistas.

With Sunday River and Black Mountain ski areas, Grafton Notch State Park, and the outdoor towns of Bethel and Andover all within easy reach, this is a prime location for nature lovers, hikers, and skiers alike—a perfect setting for a private getaway surrounded by the beauty of Maine’s western mountains.
2025 Taxes: $1,308

  • The lot was harvested around 2012 and has since grown into a vigorous young mixed forest made up predominantly of hardwoods, including White Birch, Maple, Aspen, and Beech, with scattered White Pine, Balsam Fir, and Spruce.
