Totaling approximately 133 acres in the heart of Buxton, this remarkable property offers open fields, mature woodlands, exceptional privacy, and significant long-term potential. Held by the same family since 1977, the land has been carefully maintained, with expansive fields, established tree lines, and an extraordinary sense of space.

Held by the same family since 1977, the land has been carefully maintained, with expansive fields, established tree lines, and an extraordinary sense of space. The property can be divided into two distinct components: 127+/- acres with residential development potential and an approximately 5+/- acre parcel improved with a three bedroom Cape style home. A subdivision concept has been prepared for the larger parcel, illustrating the potential for a 23 lot cluster subdivision and presenting a compelling opportunity for future residential development. Set well back from the road at the end of a long paved drive, the home was built in 2004 and enjoys peaceful views across its private setting. The interior features hardwood floors, a kitchen with gas range, formal dining room, first-floor bedroom, dedicated office, three-season sunroom, central vacuum, walk-out basement, and an attached two car garage. A collection of barns and outbuildings, offered as-is, provides the opportunity for renovation to create additional storage, workshop, or equipment space, or for removal to create more open land. Just 35 minutes from Portland, 701 River Road represents one of Buxton's most significant land offerings, equally suited for those seeking a private estate, a long-term investment, or the opportunity to thoughtfully shape the property's next chapter.
