Come explore a lakefront property that is all about location. Nestled in Orland, Maine, this log cabin lakefront refuge is situated in the northern mid-coast area of the Blue Hill Peninsula, between Penobscot Bay and Blue Hill Bay. Set on beautiful Toddy Pond, this property is at the end of a private and incredibly scenic peninsula. This is a unique lakefront opportunity.
THE LOCATION Orland, with a population of 2,221, was once known as Alamoosook, from Abnaki language meaning "a place of many fish." This quaint town is conveniently located between Bucksport, 15 miles away, and Ellsworth, 19 miles away. It is also 31 miles from Bangor, 39 miles from Bar Harbor, and 240 miles from Boston, approximately a 4-hour and 16-minute drive.
THE LAKE Toddy Pond is an 8-mile-long lake divided into three distinct basins: the northern, central, and southern parts. This property is uniquely positioned in the narrows between the middle and northern sections, providing access to 1,987 surface acres of water and depths reaching 122 feet. The lake is ideal for boating, with a boat landing about 2.5 miles from the property on the northwest end of the lake.
Toddy Pond's three basins offer a diverse fishery, including cold water species such as lake trout, landlocked salmon, splake, and brown trout in the northern basin, and warm water species like smallmouth bass and white perch in the central and southern basins. Additionally, the lake benefits from a seasonal run of alewives, ensuring a well-fed game fish population.
THE LAND Spanning approximately 2 acres, the lot includes a drilled well and a septic system designed for a two-bedroom home (permit available upon request). The property boasts approximately 750± feet of water frontage wrapping around the end of Short Point, offering breathtaking north, east, and west water views. Amenities include a boat landing, a beach area with a dock and lift, and a remarkable glacial erratic boulder, carried here by retreating glaciers over 15,000 years ago, this boulder is an impressive feature.
THE IMPROVEMENTS The property features a charming log cabin and a shed/workshop, both built in 2015 on a concrete slab. The log cabin offers 600 square feet of living space (20 x 30), one-bedroom, radiant heat with an on-demand electric water heater, and a wood stove for backup heating. It also includes a spacious roofed covered porch (6 x 30). The accompanying shed provides ample storage and workspace. Additionally, there is a vertical log camp with a 7 x 16 deck, perfect for enjoying the surrounding natural beauty.
THE AREA AROUND ORLAND, MAINE Nearby points of interest include Ellsworth, 19 miles away, which is Hancock County's largest city and the gateway to Bar Harbor, offering various shops, restaurants, and cultural events.
World famous Acadia National Park, including Cadillac Mountain, is about a 35-mile drive.
Fort Knox, established in 1844, is just 12 miles away and was built to protect the Penobscot River Valley. Adjacent to Fort Knox is the Penobscot Narrows Bridge, one of three cable-stayed bridges in the US, featuring the tallest bridge observatory in the world.
The Great Pond Mountain Conservation Trust, located 7.8 miles away, offers 5,000 acres of trails for hiking, biking, horseback riding, and snowmobiling.

Maine prices have doubled since covid. Thanks for that 😢

That's everywhere now

[@bigguydiy2184]

Well, this is kind of neat to see. My Uncle owns the lot across the street but borders this lot. Seasonal usage only. Will be up there this Summer in another month to enjoy.

"I'll take a Maine property for $200K, Alex." OMG!...The TAXE$$$$

[@scottroberts7463]

If that home were in CT , in an average Mil Rate town, the taxes would be far more. So hard to stay in the Northeast to retire.

[@armyofq4786]

499k wow expensive for what you get.

[@lightbeing3121]

WOW..... it's a shame that prices in Maine are looking like California....... just sad!

[@mahnamahna3252]

I don't think you've looked at California real estate prices for some years

[@Morpheus187]

499,000 would not even get you a condo in Southern California nowadays. I like how the price of my house has gone up to over $1 million in my house payment is $2000 a month cheaper than an apartment.

[@lightbeing3121]

So i did not mean the prices are exactly like California (that would be ridiculous), however prices in Maine are rising fast and furious and it's like California.

It's beautiful and not overpriced. Anytime you are on a body of water that adds value.

[@mmjackk667]

A few nice features but it seems overpriced and the neighbors are too close (and the taxes are crazy high).

[@wd8545]

Beautiful location , thank you both .😊

[@carolbialy5920]

Yup, my home state is now off limits. I left because I couldn’t find work and now I can’t return because I can’t afford a home. Sad.

Wow what a nice property but about 300K out of my price range

Seems like everyone is trying to retire after selling their overpriced cabin.

[@royoliveira6039]

[@bullus41]

Not even close to being worth it. 2 acres and a tiny home?? Maine has over 2000 seas and lakes, you can do much better.

[@richbonnie220]

Look up 158 Auburn street in Portland Maine,.27 acres,3 bed one bath cape on busy road ,1000 square feet…..399 thousand…..this is a bargain,no noise and waterfront to boot

Too much talking, start booking.

[@P.Galore]

Seems VERY over-priced, very dated in a beautiful location.
