Tucked just beneath the famed scenic overlook in Prospect, this rare 2.1-acre lot (possibly up to 4 acres—pending clarification) offers an unforgettable opportunity to stake your claim in one of Maine's most picture-perfect spots. Whether it's 2.18 or closer to 4 acres (survey references 2.18), one thing is certain—you'll be owning a piece of the coast that captures hearts daily. Imagine building your dream home or seasonal getaway on a property where people literally stop in their tracks to take in the view. With town zoning requiring 2 acres to build, this property hits the mark, but final approval will need to go through the Prospect Planning Board. (As with all great things, a little patience and vision can go a long way.) Whether you're a dreamer, an investor, or a visionary, this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to own a slice of Maine's rugged beauty in a location that's nothing short of iconic. Land like this rarely hits the market—and when it does, it doesn't last. Snag your piece of Prospect before someone else does.
