Along the mile of private road across this 125+/- acre parcel of transition forest offers hardwoods from the south mixed with softwoods from the north. About 100 acres are in tree growth and 25 acres out of tree growth with two buildable lots, one facing east and overlooking the charming town of Lubec and the other facing west and north over South Bay. Also as part of this remarkable package is a two-story, 3-bedroom, 2 full bath house on its own 1.25-acre parcel with gorgeous tin ceilings, an open concept living and dining room, new roof (2013) and new TC Hafford basement (2014). It needs a little TLC after a rough winter to redo her first floor floors and some ceiling repair. This property features all the best of Downeast Maine - forest, beachfront, rock outcrop and house - in one remarkable package.
