Lake Home Off Market

If you've been dreaming of a private retreat surrounded by Maine's majestic mountains and unspoiled wilderness, this 150A+- acre off-grid property in Mount Chase might be exactly what you've been looking for. Tucked at the southern base of the Mount Chase range, this expansive, forested property offers a combination of seclusion, natural beauty, and versatility. Whether you're seeking a remote homestead, a timberland investment, a hunting property, or a recreational getaway, this parcel checks all the boxes. Located on Mountain Road in the small town of Mount Chase, this land sits adjacent to Wardsworth and Bald Mountains, with the trailhead to 2,439-foot Mount Chase located right at the northern boundary of the property. Hike the nearly 1.75-mile forested trail and take in sweeping views from the summit. The land itself is a mix of mature hardwoods and softwood stands, home to towering trees, stone walls from an earlier era of farming, and spring-fed mountain creeks winding through the landscape. Elevations range from 880 to 1,080 feet above sea level, with more than half of the soils composed of Bangor and Dixmont silt loams aEUR* ideal for growing trees, restoring pasture, or cultivating crops in flatter areas. At the heart of the property is a cozy off-grid cabin set on pressure-treated posts and concrete pads. A dug well provides water, and a nearby storage shed adds extra functionality. The structure offers a rustic base for your adventures or future improvements, and it's perfectly situated for use during hunting season or as a recreational camp year-round. The area surrounding Mount Chase is rich in natural and cultural history. Once home to native Penobscot and Maliseet peoples and later settled by homesteaders in the 1830s, the region remains one of Maine's best-kept secrets. Outdoor recreation abounds with quick access to Baxter State Park's 209,000 acres, the Katahdin Woods & Waters National Monument, and countless lakes, ponds, and rivers.
