The 14X34 cabin has a small recessed porch on the road side and a decent size deck overlooking the field in the back yard. There is one bedroom, a kitchen/living open area and a full bath, providing all the comforts of home. The drilled well, septic system and propane furnace make it a very comfortable space to retreat to. The interior is covered with v-match white cedar and the floors are luxury vinyl plank. Newly done in 2025 and everything conveys. Just bring your groceries and your tooth brush. The town of Patten is only a 10-15 minute drive away for all additional services you may desire. There is also another structure partially complete just to the South of the 2025 cabin with it's own well. On the Southwest corner of the property there is an approximately 2 acre maple grove of trees and a functional sugar shack. The current owner has tapped the trees in the years past and boiled the sap down to maple syrup. The land itself is an awesome and diverse property. With about 12-15 acres of field spotted with evergreens and a variety of mature apple trees. Providing both food and cover for the abundant whitetail deer population on the property. Pick wild strawberries right in the back field. A short walk to the brook that crosses the land and you can catch some native brook trout to fry for supper. The maple grove at the West side of the property falls into mixed growth then transtions to primarly softwood at the back of the lot. There has been no timbering of the trees for 20+ years. This location has the added bonus of being able to access both the ATV and the MSA snowmobile trail systems directly from the property. Easy access to both Baxter Park and Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monuments as well as many other hiking opportunities. This is a stunning piece of wild Maine on a very private and lightly travelled road. A must see to appreciate all it has. Here to help! Check it out today.
