This is an amazing piece of property Phil! I mean, WOW! This is what my dreams are made of.

[@philmcphail2228]

Yes sir they are.

[@peacefromraineydaze5289]

That’s roughly $1000 an acre. The cabin is only one bedroom and that’s not a loft. It’s an attic nice property. Not sure what all the other properties go forward, but that seems kind of high.

[@Neel-xe1po]

Yeah for undeveloped land it's listed pretty high

[@croboy751]

I agree, everyone wants land these days but the price is off drastically. Cabin is only functional for warm months and could be used to build a newer home nearby but electric is a concern without having any service nearby

[@therealbigfoot3076]

Early 2000s could get 100 acres less than 15k. My parents bought 70 acres for 12k northern maine

[@nathanfuller6066]

Local realtor told me my offer of 500 an acer was more then reasonable. It was the sellers listing agent they denied my offer only to sell it couple years later for the same money. Wish they would of came back to me!! Stop overpaying for property. The list them high to make highest commissions they can not what the property is worth!

[@homeostasis4me485]

Judging from the paneling buckling in the v bedroom, I'd say some settling has happened

[@philmcphail2228]

Maybe a little. Doors and windows work fine.

[@ethanadams8165]

That budget paneling will do that without settling. Given the way the rest of the place was built I'm really surprised they made that choice.

Very good real estate agent.

[@philmcphail2228]

Thank you.

[@JanaBilodeau]

Awesome land!!! I'm guessing the low property tax is because the land excluding the camp lot is all in tree growth? We own 150 acres in Wiscasset and only pay $1,200 a year in property tax. There's quite a penalty for removal of land from tree growth. We were told by the town a couple years back that there would be a 10K penalty to remove 5 acres from the tree growth program for a homesite.

[@philmcphail2228]

510 acres of this property is in the tree growth tax program.

So, technically clearing trees to build a bigger home might impose a fine or is that something we would need to discuss with the conservation department? I’m aware taxes would go up with clearing to build a “home” but clearing land that is under federal control is new to mean and seems troubling

[@philmcphail2228]

This property is not under federal control. Part of it is in the tree growth current use tax program which keeps the taxes more as long as it is growing trees. 40 acres where the cabin is and higher up the hill is not in the program.
