LAND FEATURES
This property has approximately 550 feet of frontage on both sides of Grindstone Road. Grindstone Road is a year-round maintained paved state route. Electric power and communication cable are located roadside.
The property is forested land with little to no timber harvesting for many years. Some beautiful large hardwood and softwood trees form the canopy of most of the land. The geography of the parcels is relatively flat with elevations on the land varying from 300 to 320 feet above sea level. The soils in this region are reported to be gravelly and sandy loams that should be good for gardening and growing trees.
Frontage along the East Branch of the Penobscot River is shown to be 525± feet by a recent survey. The water frontage is easily accessible from Grindstone Road. This approximate 1.75 acre parcel along the river has a limited area meeting setback requirements for building. Best use of this part of the real estate would be for river access, primitive camping, self-contained RV's and a vegetative buffer to preserve the water quality of this pristine river. Directly across the road is the balance of the 9 acres. This is all forest with some evidence of former homesteading with a few apple trees and field bushes still living on the land. Build a seasonal cabin or a year-round home on this part of the land.
