This 133-acre property in low-tax New Sweden is a standout parcel with a little bit of everything--woods, fields, orchard, wildlife, investment potential, and excellent access. Conservatively managed through USDA programs, the property features substantial frontage on Route 161 along with a well-built interior road extending nearly the entire length of the parcel. Currently enrolled in Maine's Tree Growth program, approximately 3 acres have been excluded for future building potential. Roughly 10 acres of mowed open field stretch from Route 161 toward an impressive 15-acre apple orchard--a tremendous wildlife draw and one of the property's most distinctive features. Beyond the orchard, the forest becomes equally interesting. Approximately 10-15 acres of mature, untouched hardwood offer potential for future maple sugaring or high-value veneer and sawlog management, while another roughly 10-acre stand of mature spruce provides dense softwood cover. Red oak can also be found throughout portions of the property. Mixed-wood areas were conservatively thinned more than a decade ago, and thousands of white spruce have since been planted through USDA initiatives, reflecting years of thoughtful stewardship. For the hunter or outdoor enthusiast, this one is hard to overlook. Deer regularly travel through the apple orchard and use the dense softwoods at the far end of the property for winter cover, creating exceptional habitat across the parcel. With its combination of road frontage, open ground, extensive orchard, carefully managed timber, interior access, wildlife habitat, and future building potential, properties with this much variety and long-term possibility don't come along often in northern Maine.
