Built in 2021, this compact 150± square-foot tiny cabin proves that you don't need a large home to enjoy a big lifestyle. Whether you're looking for a recreational getaway, a hunting camp, a future homestead, or simply a place to disconnect from the noise of modern life, this property offers privacy, simplicity, and room to breathe. The one-room cabin is designed around efficient off-grid living. A wood stove provides heat during Maine's cooler seasons, while a solar power system with panels, inverter, and battery storage supplies electricity. The cabin rests on a concrete block foundation that also provides protected space for battery equipment and water storage. A drilled well supplies fresh water, making this property more functional than many remote camps. Several additional structures enhance the property, including a chicken coop, an outhouse, and storage buildings that provide space for equipment, tools, and outdoor gear. The land itself is equally appealing. The 45.4 surveyed acres feature mixed forest growth, varied terrain ranging from approximately 580 to 680 feet above sea level, and a small brook that crosses the southwest corner of the property. According to the NRCS soil survey, the property consists primarily of very stony Bangor Silt Loam soils, great for growing trees and potential for gardening after tree and rock removal. Located in Maine's unorganized territory, Prentiss offers one of the state's unique advantages: low property taxes with county and state management instead of local municipal government. There is no town office, fewer public services, and considerably lower carrying costs. Annual property taxes are only about $150, while the private road maintenance fee is approximately $250 per year. Despite its secluded location, you're within reach of many outdoor destinations.
