Property Details
Property Description
Enjoy the uninterrupted peacefulness of nature less than 10 miles from the charming town of Skowhegan, Maine. Just upstream from Lake George, this breathtaking 14.2-acre property consists largely of forested wetlands (freshwater) – the perfect outdoor escape for those who enjoy hunting, fishing, and exploration. In addition, the Western portion of the property features a variety of lush trees that provide shade and protection from the elements during the warm months and beautiful foliage in the fall.
In an effort to protect Maine’s vital ecosystems, dwellings and small structures must be approved by the town’s Planning Board. If approved, dwellings must have at least one habitable room not less than 150 square feet and one bathroom not less than 18 square feet. Review Skowhegan zoning ordinance covenants HERE.
This pristine property contains many valuable natural resources. Timber harvesting, wildlife management, soil and water conservation, land management roads, and agriculture are all permissible; (however, vegetation clearing and removal may require a permit.)
Although the wooded property feels remote, it has 1,000 feet of frontage road access along the Eastern boundary on Whittemore Hill Road, and the property is less than 5 miles from U.S. Highway 2.
The town of Skowhegan sits along the Kennebec River Valley, and many of their shops and restaurants showcase stunning views of the large flowing river. This vibrant town has a rich history. Learn more HERE.
