Hunting, Timber, Waterfront, Remote

This large acre property in Steuben (Washington County) offers a rare opportunity to own a vast piece of Downeast Maine's wilderness, perfect for a variety of recreational and conservation purposes. The property can be purchased with 434 acres or as a larger parcel with approximately 750 acres. Here's a breakdown of what makes this property unique:
Key Features:
• Size and Location: Approximately 434 acres with a prime location in the heart of Maine’s "Downeast" region. Close to coastal towns, Acadia National Park, and Lubec.
• Natural Resources:
o Timber: A mix of mature timber including spruce, balsam fir, white pine, cedar, yellow and white birch, and other hardwood species. The lot has a history of past timber harvesting, providing an opportunity for future management and income.
o Water:Frontage on Whitten Perritt Stream, which flows into Joy and the Atlantic Ocean. There’s access to freshwater fishing in the stream, as well as saltwater opportunities in the bay.
o Wildlife: Rich in wildlife, including black bears, moose, deer, grouse, coyote, geese, and trout—ideal for hunting, wildlife observation, and outdoor photography.
• Infrastructure:
o Internal Roads: Just under 2 miles+/- of internal roads and trails, some improved and some unimproved, providing access throughout the property. These roads open the land for recreational use, timber management, and potential development.
o Public Road Frontage: The property has frontage on two public roads (Route 1 & Smithville Road) with power available, making it possible to develop a cabin, off-grid home, or other structures. Smithville road section is accessed via a 20' Right of Way.
o Gravel Resources: There are gravel resources on the property that may provide additional utility for road maintenance or construction projects.
• Tax Status and Affordability:
o The property benefits from Maine’s Tree Growth Tax status, which provides tax advantages for those engaged in timber management and conservation. Portion of the 434+/- acres off of Smithville Road is NOT in Tree Growth.
o The 2024 property taxes were $1283, which is reasonable considering the size and resources of the land.
Local Area:
• Steuben and surrounding towns provide a taste of classic Maine coastal life, with opportunities for boating, fishing, and exploring the rugged coastline.
• The famous Acadia National Park is within an hour’s drive, offering world-class hiking, scenic drives, and ocean views.
• The Lubec area, home to the easternmost point in the United States, is a 1.5-hour drive away, perfect for day trips or coastal exploration.
This property represents a unique opportunity to own a large, private tract of land in one of the most beautiful and unspoiled regions of Maine, with diverse natural resources and recreational opportunities.

This parcel may also be purchased as part of a larger 750 acre lot.

Buyer Agency Cooperation: Buyer agent compensation may be available. Please have your agent contact the listing agent to discuss details.
